I've created a mapping of query terms to clusters with corresponding strength values that I want to integrate into lucene scoring so I can boost documents that match the clusters. I would like to give a boost based on the normalized score. In my setup, each document has a field with the clusters their assigned to which is a string that contains numbers separated by spaces. I was looking at using ValueSourceQuery but didn't really understand how I should really deal with the FieldScoreQuery since the field I need to look up on isn't one of the defined types. Is there a simpler way I should be going about this?
I'm using lucene 2.2.0. Thanks for your help as always, M
