Hi
I know the quiet (not-updated) "A Comparison of Open Source Search Engines" by Christian Middleton, Ricardo Baeza-Yates. It does not contain all newer open source code libraries
Is there library faster than Lucene in Information Retrieval at the moment?
Also, what is the whole capability of Lucene package about term-weighting scheme?
http://lucene.apache.org/core/
Thanks
Osman
I found this old report about the open source code search engines online and it exists also in Modern Information Retrieval book 2011, but it does not contain Terrier and other newer libraries. Furthermore, Lucene is changed from version to another. I think may be someone can do a comparison about the available newer open source code Search Engines http://wrg.upf.edu/WRG/dctos/Middleton-Baeza.pdf
Consider Solr (built on the top of Lucene) and Elasticsearch also (depending on your needs). Both Solr and Elasticsearch are solid, high-performance applications (with proper configurations, of course). Another issue to take into account is scalability. Many features of popular SE are depicted here: http://db-engines.com/en/system/Elasticsearch%3BSolr%3BSphinx
I recommend the use of Terrier platform for building a whole Information Retrieval System or some parts of it like indexes (Direct and Inverted). It is easily configurable and executable via command lines (for both Windows and Linux).
If you are familiar with Java programming, you can extend the default indexing models included in Terrier. You can see more details in the link below:
