Lucid Imagination » Getting Started with Payloads
I just posted a brief intro on getting started with Apache Lucene payloads on Lucid’s blog for those who are interested. Here’s the teaser:
Like Spans, payloads involve the position of terms, but go one step further. Namely, a Payload in Apache Lucene is an arbitrary byte array stored at a specific position (i.e. a specific token/term) in the index. A payload can be used to store weights for specific terms or things like part of speech tags or other semantic information.
