Hi Paras,

Briefly looking at the source, it seems that MLT handler (not component)
uses fq parameter, so if you use MLT handler, it do the job.

Hi Koji,
I have already used MLT parameters to refine the query but still I'd like to
exclude additional terms. I was just going through some docs online and came
across filterQuery mechanism. Won't specifying fq=~term1+~term2 do the job?
Thanks

Hi Paras,
As I understand from StopFilter,
it is a static method to exclude terms such as stop words.
Correct. As far as I know, to control what words MLT component
chooses for generating BooleanQuery, what you can do is
that you specify the following parameters:
mlt.mintf
Minimum Term Frequency - the frequency below which terms will be ignored in
the source doc.
mlt.mindf
Minimum Document Frequency - the frequency at which words will be ignored
which do not occur in at least this many docs.
mlt.minwl
minimum word length below which words will be ignored.
mlt.maxwl
maximum word length above which words will be ignored.
mlt.maxqt
maximum number of query terms that will be included in any generated query.
If these parameters are unusable for your case, I don't think
you can exclude certain terms OOTB.

Hi Koji,
Thank you for your reply. Actually, the terms I would like to exclude
would
be based on the document I use for MoreLikeThis Query. As I understand
from StopFilter,
it is a static method to exclude terms such as stop words.
My problem is that I want to return theme/area specific results for
MoreLikeThis. Usually, MoreLikeThis picks up nouns such as names and
returns
results based on them as it finds them as interesting. I would rather like
it to return results based on general theme of a text. So, I was wondering
if I can prevent MoreLikeThis to exclude results containing a list of
detected nouns that I provide per document.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I am tinkering with MoreLikeThis component of Solr and had a particular
use
case where I would like to exclude certain terms from consideration
while
MoreLikeThis makes a query vector out of a document. Is it possible with
Solr? I searched for this in the documentation but wasn't able to find a
method.
Thanks in advance,

How about using StopFilter that excludes certain terms on a field,
then specify the field for mlt.fl parameter when executing MLT?
