NormalizationH1 (Lucene 7.7.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.lucene.search.similarities.Normalization
- - org.apache.lucene.search.similarities.NormalizationH1

```
public class NormalizationH1
extends Normalization
```
Normalization model that assumes a uniform distribution of the term frequency.
While this model is parameterless in the original article, information-based models (see IBSimilarity) introduced a multiplying factor. The default value for the c parameter is 1.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
