-/**
- * Expert: Scoring API.
- *
- * <p>Similarity defines the components of Lucene scoring.
- * Overriding computation of these components is a convenient
- * way to alter Lucene scoring.
- *
- * <p>Suggested reading:
- * <a href="http://nlp.stanford.edu/IR-book/html/htmledition/queries-as-vectors-1.html">
- * Introduction To Information Retrieval, Chapter 6</a>.
- *
- * <p>The following describes how Lucene scoring evolves from
- * underlying information retrieval models to (efficient) implementation.
- * We first brief on <i>VSM Score</i>,
- * then derive from it <i>Lucene's Conceptual Scoring Formula</i>,
- * from which, finally, evolves <i>Lucene's Practical Scoring Function</i>
- * (the latter is connected directly with Lucene classes and methods).
- *
- * <p>Lucene combines
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Boolean_model">
- * Boolean model (BM) of Information Retrieval</a>
- * with
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_Space_Model">
- * Vector Space Model (VSM) of Information Retrieval</a> -
- * documents "approved" by BM are scored by VSM.
- *
- * <p>In VSM, documents and queries are represented as
- * weighted vectors in a multi-dimensional space,
- * where each distinct index term is a dimension,
- * and weights are
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tfidf">Tf-idf</a> values.
- *
- * <p>VSM does not require weights to be <i>Tf-idf</i> values,
- * but <i>Tf-idf</i> values are believed to produce search results of high quality,
- * and so Lucene is using <i>Tf-idf</i>.
- * <i>Tf</i> and <i>Idf</i> are described in more detail below,
- * but for now, for completion, let's just say that
- * for given term <i>t</i> and document (or query) <i>x</i>,
- * <i>Tf(t,x)</i> varies with the number of occurrences of term <i>t</i> in <i>x</i>
- * (when one increases so does the other) and
- * <i>idf(t)</i> similarly varies with the inverse of the
- * number of index documents containing term <i>t</i>.
- *
- * <p><i>VSM score</i> of document <i>d</i> for query <i>q</i> is the
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosine_similarity">
- * Cosine Similarity</a>
- * of the weighted query vectors <i>V(q)</i> and <i>V(d)</i>:
- *

- * </table>
- * <br> <br>
- *
- *
- * Where <i>V(q)</i> · <i>V(d)</i> is the
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_product">dot product</a>
- * of the weighted vectors,
- * and <i>|V(q)|</i> and <i>|V(d)|</i> are their
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_norm#Euclidean_norm">Euclidean norms</a>.
- *
- * <p>Note: the above equation can be viewed as the dot product of
- * the normalized weighted vectors, in the sense that dividing
- * <i>V(q)</i> by its euclidean norm is normalizing it to a unit vector.
- *
- * <p>Lucene refines <i>VSM score</i> for both search quality and usability:
- * <ul>
- * <li>Normalizing <i>V(d)</i> to the unit vector is known to be problematic in that
- * it removes all document length information.
- * For some documents removing this info is probably ok,
- * e.g. a document made by duplicating a certain paragraph <i>10</i> times,
- * especially if that paragraph is made of distinct terms.
- * But for a document which contains no duplicated paragraphs,
- * this might be wrong.
- * To avoid this problem, a different document length normalization
- * factor is used, which normalizes to a vector equal to or larger
- * than the unit vector: <i>doc-len-norm(d)</i>.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>At indexing, users can specify that certain documents are more
- * important than others, by assigning a document boost.
- * For this, the score of each document is also multiplied by its boost value
- * <i>doc-boost(d)</i>.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>Lucene is field based, hence each query term applies to a single
- * field, document length normalization is by the length of the certain field,
- * and in addition to document boost there are also document fields boosts.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>The same field can be added to a document during indexing several times,
- * and so the boost of that field is the multiplication of the boosts of
- * the separate additions (or parts) of that field within the document.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>At search time users can specify boosts to each query, sub-query, and
- * each query term, hence the contribution of a query term to the score of
- * a document is multiplied by the boost of that query term <i>query-boost(q)</i>.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>A document may match a multi term query without containing all
- * the terms of that query (this is correct for some of the queries),
- * and users can further reward documents matching more query terms
- * through a coordination factor, which is usually larger when
- * more terms are matched: <i>coord-factor(q,d)</i>.
- * </li>
- * </ul>
- *
- * <p>Under the simplifying assumption of a single field in the index,
- * we get <i>Lucene's Conceptual scoring formula</i>:

- * <center><font=-1><u>Lucene Conceptual Scoring Formula</u></font></center>
- * </td></tr>
- * </table>
- * <br> <br>
- *
- * <p>The conceptual formula is a simplification in the sense that (1) terms and documents
- * are fielded and (2) boosts are usually per query term rather than per query.
- *
- * <p>We now describe how Lucene implements this conceptual scoring formula, and
- * derive from it <i>Lucene's Practical Scoring Function</i>.
- *
- * <p>For efficient score computation some scoring components
- * are computed and aggregated in advance:
- *
- * <ul>
- * <li><i>Query-boost</i> for the query (actually for each query term)
- * is known when search starts.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>Query Euclidean norm <i>|V(q)|</i> can be computed when search starts,
- * as it is independent of the document being scored.
- * From search optimization perspective, it is a valid question
- * why bother to normalize the query at all, because all
- * scored documents will be multiplied by the same <i>|V(q)|</i>,
- * and hence documents ranks (their order by score) will not
- * be affected by this normalization.
- * There are two good reasons to keep this normalization:
- * <ul>
- * <li>Recall that
- * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosine_similarity">
- * Cosine Similarity</a> can be used find how similar
- * two documents are. One can use Lucene for e.g.
- * clustering, and use a document as a query to compute
- * its similarity to other documents.
- * In this use case it is important that the score of document <i>d3</i>
- * for query <i>d1</i> is comparable to the score of document <i>d3</i>
- * for query <i>d2</i>. In other words, scores of a document for two
- * distinct queries should be comparable.
- * There are other applications that may require this.
- * And this is exactly what normalizing the query vector <i>V(q)</i>
- * provides: comparability (to a certain extent) of two or more queries.
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>Applying query normalization on the scores helps to keep the
- * scores around the unit vector, hence preventing loss of score data
- * because of floating point precision limitations.
- * </li>
- * </ul>
- * </li>
- *
- * <li>Document length norm <i>doc-len-norm(d)</i> and document
- * boost <i>doc-boost(d)</i> are known at indexing time.
- * They are computed in advance and their multiplication
- * is saved as a single value in the index: <i>norm(d)</i>.
- * (In the equations below, <i>norm(t in d)</i> means <i>norm(field(t) in doc d)</i>
- * where <i>field(t)</i> is the field associated with term <i>t</i>.)
- * </li>
- * </ul>
- *
- * <p><i>Lucene's Practical Scoring Function</i> is derived from the above.
- * The color codes demonstrate how it relates
- * to those of the <i>conceptual</i> formula:

- * </li>
- * </ul>
- * The {@link #computeNorm} method is responsible for

- * For instance, <i>decode(encode(0.89)) = 0.75</i>.
- * <br> <br>
- * Compression of norm values to a single byte saves memory at search time,
