Given a query, I want to be able to, for each query term, get the number of occurrences of the term. I have tried what I'm including below and it does not seem to provide reliable results. Seems to work fine with exact matching but as soon as stemming kicks in, all bets are off as to value of the number of occurrences returned. Any ideas, anyone? Can this be written in a simpler and/or more efficient way? Thanks - int totalOccurrences = 0; reader = IndexReader.open(getDirectory(indexDirPath)); HashSet terms = new HashSet(); query.extractTerms(terms); TermFreqVector[] tfvs = reader.getTermFreqVectors(docId); if (tfvs != null) {
// For each term frequency vector (i.e. for each field) for (int i = 0; i < tfvs.length; i++) { String field = tfvs[i].getField(); String[] strTerms = tfvs[i].getTerms(); int[] tfs = tfvs[i].getTermFrequencies(); if (strTerms != null) { // For each term in the query for (Iterator iter = terms.iterator(); iter.hasNext();) { Term term = (Term) iter.next(); // For each term in the vector for (int j = 0; j < strTerms.length; j++) { // If found the query term among the vector terms if (field.equals(term.field()) && strTerms[j].equals(term.text())) { // Add the term frequency to the total totalOccurrences += tfs[j]; } } } } } }
