My documents are cars...
i.e.,
Nissan Altima Sports Package
Nissan Altima Standard
The problem I have is when i search "Nissan Altima", I want to get the 2nd
hit back first, i.e. "Nissan Altima Standard", because it is shorter.
However, this doesn't happen. They are both scored the exact same.
I know that the lengthNorm in Similarity is using 1/sqrt(numTerms), and you
would think that would be enuff to make sure the order is correct. However,
it is not, and I assume this is because of the encode/decode functions that
pack this value into a single byte do not have the granularity to represent
differences between numbers like 1/sqrt(3) vs 1/sqrt(4)??
Is the suggested approach here to re-write the encode/decode operations, or
is there any easier way?
Thanks kindly -
John
