Re: Boosting query results

I think it works to join against the other collection to get scores. But I’m not sure. I think that was suggested for a fairly static collection of documents with rapidly changing scoring inputs. Personally, I would try a straight popularity boost to see if it got you 80% of the way there. wun

Re: Boosting query results

Yes, the spam issue is something I'm aware of. I plan on having some sanity checks in place to make sure that the boosts are in line with expectations either at query time or while indexing the scores into Solr. I just read through that document along with some of the more recent posts about s

If it is running in an environment protected from spammers, you might want to start with the work that LucidWorks did on click scoring. https://lucidworks.com/blog/2015/03/23/mixed-signals-using-lucidworks-fusions-signals-api/

Re: Boosting query results

I've found that it is definitely complicated! Essentially what I am attempting to do is boost products based on the number of times that particular product has been selected via historical searches using the same search term or phrase. On 7/7/2016 11:55 AM, Walter Underwood wrote: That is a

Re: Boosting query results

That is a very complicated design. What are you trying to achieve? Maybe there is a different approach that is simpler. wunder Walter Underwood wun...@wunderwood.org http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) > On Jul 7, 2016, at 9:26 AM, Mark T. Trembley > wrote: > > That works with static

Re: Boosting query results

That works with static boosts based on documents matching the query "Boost2". I want to apply a different boost to documents based on the value assigned to Boost2 within the document. From my sample documents, when running a query with "Boost2," I want Document2 boosted by 20.0 and Document6 b

Re: Boosting query results

This looks like a job for “bq”, the boost query parameter. I used this to boost textbooks which were used at the student’s school. bq does not force documents to be included in the result set. It does affect the ranking of the included documents. bq=B1_ss:Boost2 will boost documents that match

Boosting query results

I have a question about the best way to rank my results based on a score field that can have different values per document and where each document can have different scores based on which term is queried. Essentially what I'm wanting to have happen is provide a list of terms that when matched
