Hi,

DefaultSimilarity uses exactly this weighting scheme. Makes sense since it's a pretty standard relevance measure...

Bye!

Subject: calculate wi = tfi * IDFi for each document.


If I have search results how can I calculate, using lucene's API,  wi = tfi * IDFi for each document.

wi    = term weight
tfi    = term frequency in a document
IDFi = inverse document frequency = log(D/dfi)
dfi   = document frequency or number of documents containing term i
D    = number of documents in my search result

Thanks,

Andrew
