KMC Version: 5.25

Date Released: April 12, 2020

What's New

This release provides quality improvements for searching in the KMC. Algorithmic techniques for detecting spelling errors in text have been implemented. This following changes and addtions have been made to the KMC search.

• Captions Search - You can search for entries with captions by selecting Videos with Captions in the Additional Filters drop down menu.
  
• Elastic Search Changes  -  You can search for an exact phrase by using  “ “ double quotes.
• Partial Search 

When searching for up to two words, N-grams are used. N-grams are like a sliding window that moves across the word - a continuous sequence of characters of the specified length.

• Each word is broken into a 3 letter token. 
• If there is a match of 80% - results are rendered.

When the number of search words is greater than two:

• All words searched must appear in the results (in any order)
• Demonstrative words such as this/that/… and prepositions are ignored.

• Supported Operands - The following operands are now supported: ! 

Exclamation point! 

• The entire phrase to the left of the ! will be partially searched.
• The entire phrase to the right of the ! will be ignored even with an exact match

For example:Jane!Rockport will return all entries that include a partial portion of the name.

               Jane! (anything with a partial portion of the name) - Janet,  Jano,   Anette will be rendered.

The term Rockport will be ignored.

              Every search operates with partial search, there is no need no need to use the asterisk *.
