: Hi everybody : can anyone give me a suitable interpretation for cat_rank in : http://people.apache.org/~hossman/ac2012eu/ slide 15
Have you seen the video? http://vimeopro.com/user11514798/apache-lucene-eurocon-2012/video/55822630 That slide starts ~ 23:00 and i go through a description of this example. TL;DW: cat_rank in this example would be a numeric ranking of the category the product is in - so cat_rank==N means the product is in the Nth most popular categoy on the site (so lower is better, but hte number is always a positive integer) -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
