[KIM Portal Partern Recommender] Query Language seems to be wrongly used

[mgrani]

The KIM Portal uses a mixture of + and OR for expressing the query semantics. However, the + (meaning the succeeding word must be in the results|) seems to be used wrongly (namely as if it would mean AND).

For example:

the following entities

yield to the following query

(Ada+(programming+language) OR Lord+Byron OR Society OR England)

and the following results

As it can be seen results contain Persons named Ada, but those results do not contain programming and language. From my point of view the correct query must be

(+Ada+(programming+language) OR +Lord+Byron OR Society OR England)

@jr-dig-orgel assigned it to you since i think thats your implemenation

just to clarify that:

shouldn't the query be "(Ada AND (programming AND language)) OR (Lord AND Byron) OR Society OR England"

i think solr can be configured in different ways. i don't know what the correct format is.

Just checked it with the link provided by KMBL: AND seems to be teh correct syntax for the endpoint:

• Auhafen AND Fotografien yields 58 results
• Auhafen Fotografien yields 19079 results

Seems like to be resolved for KIM. Or? If so please close the issue. Thanks.

Yes, should be resolved now
