Hi , I am creating a document using this - #!/bin/bash curl -XPOST '[http://localhost:9200/dedupe/events](http://localhost:9200/dedupe/events)' -d '{ "Events" : [ { "Event" : "In india we have to try hard to cop up with the living conditions" } ] }' Now i am testing out MLT using the entire string. { "query": { "more\_like\_this": { "fields": [ "Events.Event" ], "like\_text": "In india we have to try hard to cop up with the living conditions" } } } But its not giving any result. But FLT is working fine. { "query": { "fuzzy\_like\_this": { "fields": [ "Events.Event" ], "like\_text": "In india we have to try hard to cop up with the living conditions" } } } Gives the result i just indexed. What is the reason for this behavior ? Thanks Vineeth -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hello David , Thanks for all the hard work , i really appreciate it. In my gist , i tried with "min\_doc\_freq" but not "min\_term\_freq". I would greatly appreciate if you can tell me what these variables are. I refered the tutorial but didnt get the whole idea. Again , thanks for all your time.

Hello David , There is one problem , the query you gave seems quite lineant. { "query": { "more\_like\_this": { "fields": [ "title" ], "like\_text": "India", "min\_doc\_freq": 0, "min\_term\_freq": 1, "percent\_terms\_to\_match": "0.9" } } } (Returns te indexed document) Even though the percent match is set as 90% , its working fine with just one term which is not what i expected. What i expects is that atleast 90% of the analyzed tokens in a document should match with the analyzed tokens in the query. So , to tune MLT for this , what should be done ?
