This class implements the PL2 weighting scheme.
PL2 is a representative scheme of the Divergence from Randomness Framework by Gianni Amati.
This weighting scheme is useful for tasks that require early precision.
It uses the Poisson approximation of the Binomial Probabilistic distribution (P) along with Stirling's approximation for the factorial value, the Laplace method to find the aftereffect of sampling (L) and the second wdf normalization proposed by Amati to normalize the wdf in the document to the length of the document (H2).
For more information about the DFR Framework and the PL2 scheme, please refer to : Gianni Amati and Cornelis Joost Van Rijsbergen Probabilistic models of information retrieval based on measuring the divergence from randomness ACM Transactions on Information Systems (TOIS) 20, (4), 2002, pp. 357-389.
