Counts the density of words, stemmed variations, or phrases in a
document, and produces a relevance-ranked score for retrieved documents.
The more occurrences of a word, stem, or phrase proportional to the amount
of document text, the higher the score of that document when retrieved.
Because the MANY
modifier considers density in proportion to
document text, a longer document that contains more occurrences of a word
can score lower than a shorter document that contains fewer occurrences.
You can use the MANY
modifier with these operators:
WORD
, WILDCARD
, STEM
,
SOUNDEX
, PHRASE
, SENTENCE
,
PARAGRAPH
.
For example, to select documents based on the density of stemmed variations of the word "apple", you can enter the following:
<MANY> <STEM> apple
To select documents based on the density of the phrase "mission oak", you can enter the following:
<MANY> mission oak
The MANY
modifier cannot be used with AND
,
OR
, ACCRUE
, or relational operators.
