Duplicates removal in search results

How can i remove the duplicates records in the search results. i.e., I have multiple results with the same title in 'title' field, and I want to only 1 record per title, how can I achieve that? thanks!!

you need to search for all documents with the title you care about, decide
which one to keep and remove all the others.

You'll probably need a TermDocs/TermEnum to go through all the items in your
index to create the list of documents to remove.
