INetricsQuery.setEmptyScore
Remarks
A comparison will receive this score when empty data is encountered. In some situations it is more appropriate to set this score to 0.0 or -1.0, and the user is therefore allowed to configure this setting.
The setEmptyScore can be set globally by using the method with NetricsSearchOpts
Example
This sample shows a AND query and setting the empty score to .2 on one of the querylets.

// This is an example of a AND query where different query strings can be used in a search across // different fields within a table. This requires first configuring a Simple query for each query // string along with the fields to be searched and then either "And" or "Or" them together. In this // we will query the "names" table using a query string against the "last" field and a another query // string against the "first" field. Each of these queries are referred to as a querylet. We will // apply a higher weight to the "last" field querylet and apply a the "nicknames" thesuaurs to the // "first" field querylet treating the related terms within the thesaurus as equivalent. We will also // set the empty score on the "first" field querylet to .2 meaning that if the "first" field of the // names table is is empty then use a score of .2 rather than 0.0 for this querylet. using System; using NetricsServerInterface; class MyClass { private static NetricsServerInterface.NetricsServerInterface si = null; public static void Main() { try { String host = "localhost"; int port = 5051; si = new NetricsServerInterface.NetricsServerInterface(host, port); // Table is the TIBCO Patterns Engine table to be search/matched against query String table = "names"; // Going to use 2 NetricsQuery for the search configuration NetricsQuery[] nqs = new NetricsQuery[2]; // Create NetricsSearchOpts object using the defaults NetricsSearchOpts opts = new NetricsSearchOpts(); // Create the NetricsSearchCfg pointing to the table to be searched/matched against NetricsSearchCfg tblCfg = new NetricsSearchCfg(table); // Query will contain the query string for the first querylet which is "last String query = "brown"; // FieldNames contain the fields within the table to be searhed/matched against. // If fieldNames is set to null then all fields will be searched/matched against String[] fieldNames = { "last" }; // Create a Simple query for the "last" names search nqs[0] = NetricsQuery.Simple(query, fieldNames, null); // Set up the second Simple query query = "den"; fieldNames[0] = "first"; nqs[1] = NetricsQuery.Simple(query, fieldNames, null); // Use the nicknames thesaurus for this querylet associated with "first" field search // and with the weight of 1.0 to treat related terms or synonyms the same. // i.e. "Den" is equivalent to "Dennis" nqs[1].useThesaurus("nicknames", 1.0); // Set the empty score on the "first" field querylet to .2 meaning if the "first" field // is empty then use a score of .2 rather thsan 0.0. nqs[1].setEmptyScore(.2); // QueryletWeights is an array that must be the same length as the number of querylets // and is the weight applied to each querylet in the search which impacts the similarity // scrore.
