/**
* Generate "more like this" similarity queries.
* Based on this mail:
*
* Lucene does let you access the document frequency of terms, with IndexReader.docFreq().
* Term frequencies can be computed by re-tokenizing the text, which, for a single document,
* is usually fast enough. But looking up the docFreq() of every term in the document is
* probably too slow.
* You can use some heuristics to prune the set of terms, to avoid calling docFreq() too much,
* or at all. Since you're trying to maximize a tf*idf score, you're probably most interested
* in terms with a high tf. Choosing a tf threshold even as low as two or three will radically
* reduce the number of terms under consideration. Another heuristic is that terms with a
* high idf (i.e., a low df) tend to be longer. So you could threshold the terms by the
* number of characters, not selecting anything less than, e.g., six or seven characters.
* With these sorts of heuristics you can usually find small set of, e.g., ten or fewer terms
* that do a pretty good job of characterizing a document.
* It all depends on what you're trying to do. If you're trying to eek out that last percent
* of precision and recall regardless of computational difficulty so that you can win a TREC
* competition, then the techniques I mention above are useless. But if you're trying to
* provide a "more like this" button on a search results page that does a decent job and has
* good performance, such techniques might be useful.
* An efficient, effective "more-like-this" query generator would be a great contribution, if
* anyone's interested. I'd imagine that it would take a Reader or a String (the document's
* text), analyzer Analyzer, and return a set of representative terms using heuristics like those
* above. The frequency and length thresholds could be parameters, etc.
* Doug
*
* Initial Usage
*
* This class has lots of options to try to make it efficient and flexible.
* The simplest possible usage is as follows. The bold
* fragment is specific to this class.
*
* IndexReader ir = ...
* IndexSearcher is = ...
* MoreLikeThis mlt = new MoreLikeThis(ir);
* Reader target = ... // orig source of doc you want to find similarities to
* Query query = mlt.like( target);
* Hits hits = is.search(query);
* // now the usual iteration thru 'hits' - the only thing to watch for is to make sure
* //you ignore the doc if it matches your 'target' document, as it should be similar to itself
*
*
* Thus you:
*
* - do your normal, Lucene setup for searching,
*
- create a MoreLikeThis,
*
- get the text of the doc you want to find similarities to
*
- then call one of the like() calls to generate a similarity query
*
- call the searcher to find the similar docs
*
* More Advanced Usage
*
* You may want to use {@link #setFieldNames setFieldNames(...)} so you can examine
* multiple fields (e.g. body and title) for similarity.
*
* Depending on the size of your index and the size and makeup of your documents you
* may want to call the other set methods to control how the similarity queries are
* generated:
*
* - {@link #setMinTermFreq setMinTermFreq(...)}
*
- {@link #setMinDocFreq setMinDocFreq(...)}
*
- {@link #setMaxDocFreq setMaxDocFreq(...)}
*
- {@link #setMinWordLen setMinWordLen(...)}
*
- {@link #setMaxWordLen setMaxWordLen(...)}
*
- {@link #setMaxQueryTerms setMaxQueryTerms(...)}
*
- {@link #setStopWords setStopWord(...)}
*
*
*
* Changes: Mark Harwood 29/02/04
* Some bugfixing, some refactoring, some optimisation.
* - bugfix: retrieveTerms(int docNum) was not working for indexes without a termvector -added missing code
* - bugfix: No significant terms being created for fields with a termvector - because
* was only counting one occurrence per term/field pair in calculations(ie not including frequency info from TermVector)
* - refactor: moved common code into isNoiseWord()
* - optimise: when no termvector support available - used maxNumTermsParsed to limit amount of tokenization
*
