Interface TermFreqVector

All Known Subinterfaces:

TermPositionVector

All Known Implementing Classes:

QueryTermVector

public interface TermFreqVector

Provides access to stored term vector of a document field. The vector consists of the name of the field, an array of the terms that occur in the field of the Document and a parallel array of frequencies. Thus, getTermFrequencies()[5] corresponds with the frequency of getTerms()[5], assuming there are at least 5 terms in the Document.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
String	getField() The Fieldable name.
int[]	getTermFrequencies() Array of term frequencies.
String[]	getTerms()
int[]	indexesOf(String[] terms, int start, int len) Just like indexOf(int) but searches for a number of terms at the same time.
int	indexOf(String term) Return an index in the term numbers array returned from getTerms at which the term with the specified term appears.
int	size()

Method Detail

getField

String getField()

The Fieldable name.

Returns:

The name of the field this vector is associated with.

size

int size()

Returns:

The number of terms in the term vector.

getTerms

String[] getTerms()

Returns:

An Array of term texts in ascending order.

getTermFrequencies

int[] getTermFrequencies()

Array of term frequencies. Locations of the array correspond one to one to the terms in the array obtained from getTerms method. Each location in the array contains the number of times this term occurs in the document or the document field.

indexOf

int indexOf(String term)

Return an index in the term numbers array returned from getTerms at which the term with the specified term appears. If this term does not appear in the array, return -1.

indexesOf

int[] indexesOf(String[] terms,
              int start,
              int len)

Just like indexOf(int) but searches for a number of terms at the same time. Returns an array that has the same size as the number of terms searched for, each slot containing the result of searching for that term number.

Parameters:

terms - array containing terms to look for

start - index in the array where the list of terms starts

len - the number of terms in the list
