This is the ranking function from the old version of OpenFTS,
|

and offers the ability to weight word instances more heavily
|
||||
depending on how you have classified them.
|
||||
The <i>weights</i> specify how heavily to weight each category of word:
|
||||
<pre
|
||||
>{<i>D-weight</i>, <i>A-weight</i>, <i>B-weight</i>, <i>C-weight</i>}</pre>
|
||||
<pre>{<i>D-weight</i>, <i>C-weight</i>, <i>B-weight</i>, <i>A-weight</i>}</pre>
|
||||
If no weights are provided, then these defaults are used:
|
||||
<pre>{0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 1.0}</pre>
|
||||
Often weights are used to mark words from special areas of the document,
|
||||
like the title or an initial abstract,
|
||||
and make them more or less important than words in the document body.
