## Class BasicModelD

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.lucene.search.similarities.BasicModel
  - - org.apache.lucene.search.similarities.BasicModelD

-     public class BasicModelD
      extends BasicModel

  Implements the approximation of the binomial model with the divergence for DFR. The formula used in Lucene differs slightly from the one in the original paper: to avoid underflow for small values of `N` and `F`, `N` is increased by `1` and `F` is always increased by `tfn+1`.

  WARNING: for terms that do not meet the expected random distribution (e.g. stopwords), this model may give poor performance, such as abnormally high or NaN scores for low tf values.

  WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
