For a very long time, that was what folks always say…. “The different IDF” is going to be an issue. My opinion is that there are many other things that REALLY effect your overall relevance a lot more then unbalanced IDF. Folks worry way too much about IDF, and not enough about “what are your crazy synonyms.txt or stop words.txt doing to you?”.
You should go use a tool like Quepid (www.quepid.com) and set up a baseline relevance test case, and just try the experiment, that way instead of making decisions based on hunches, you have data! > On Dec 28, 2022, at 8:30 AM, Dave <hastings.recurs...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Eric, that is super clever.
