: Thanks Erick, I've been using TopDocs, but am playing with my own HitCollector : variant of TopDocHitCollector. The problem is not adjusting the score, it's : what to adjust it by, i.e. is it possible to re-evaluate the scores of H1 and H2 : knowing that the original query resulted in hits on H1 AND H2.
if you are using a HitCollector, there any re-evaluation is going to happen in your code using whatever mechanism you want -- once your collect method is called on a docid, Lucene is done with that docid and no longer cares about it ... it's only whatever storage you may be maintaining of high scoring docs thta needs to know that you've decided the score has changed. your big problem is going to be that you basically need to maintain a list of *every* doc collected, if you don't know what the score of any of them are until you've processed all the rest ... since docs are collected in increasing order of docid, you might be able to make some optimizations based on how big of a gap you've got between the doc you are currently collecting and the last doc you've collected if you know that you're always going to add docs that "relate" to eachother in sequential bundles -- but this would be some very custom code depending on your use case. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
