Hi all, reviving this thread.
For those of you who use an external file for your suggestions, how do you
decide from your query logs what suggestions to include? Just starting out with
some exploratory analysis of clicks, dwell times, etc., and would love to hear
from the community any advise.
Thanks!
Best,
Audrey

It's a great idea. And then index that file into a separate lean
collection of just the suggestions, along with the weight as another field on
those documents, to use for ranking them at query time with standard /select
queries. (this separate suggest collection would also have appropriate
tokenization to match the partial words as the user types, like ngramming)

over an external dictionary file? We have lots of "top queries" and measure
their nDCG. A thought was to programmatically generate an external file where
the weight per query term (or phrase) == its nDCG. Bad idea?
