## Detailed Description

Xapian::Weight subclass implementing the traditional probabilistic formula.

This class implements the "traditional" Probabilistic Weighting scheme, as described by the early papers on Probabilistic Retrieval. BM25 generally gives better results.

TradWeight(k) is equivalent to BM25Weight(k, 0, 0, 1, 0), and since Xapian 2.0.0 TradWeight is actually implemented as a subclass of BM25Weight. In earlier versions is was a separate class which was equivalent except it returned weights (k+1) times smaller.

Deprecated
  Use BM25Weight(k, 0, 0, 1, 0) instead.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ TradWeight()

Xapian::TradWeight::TradWeight | ( | double | k = 1.0 | ) |
| inline explicit

Construct a TradWeight.

Parameters

  k | A non-negative parameter controlling how influential within-document-frequency (wdf) and document length are. k=0 means that wdf and document length don't affect the weights. The larger k is, the more they do. (default 1)
