[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-4810) Positions are incremented for each ngram in EdgeNGramTokenFilter

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4810?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13591198#comment-13591198 ] 

Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-4810:
-------------------------------------

At a glance I think I like the idea myself. I don't like tokenfilters that 'retokenize' by changing up the positions, i think it causes all kinds of havoc.

Instead with this patch, it simplifies what this filter is doing conceptually: for each word, all of its prefixes are added as synonyms.

> Edge ngrams should be like synonyms, with all the ngrams generated from a token having the same position as that original token. The current code increments position.
> For the text "molecular biology", the query "mol bio" should match as a phrase in neighboring positions. It does not.
> You can see this in the Analysis page in the admin UI.
