+ proximity distance of 1 (next to each other). The default
+ value of 'follow' is 0 (order will not affect weight).
+
+
+
+
+ lead
+
+
+ Attribute 'lead' is a floating point number.
+ It controls if term weight should be reduced by position
+ from start in a metadata field. A positive value of 'lead'
+ will reduce weight as it apperas further away from the lead
+ of the field. Default value is 0 (no reduction of weight by
+ position).
+
+
+
+
+ length
+
+
+ Attribute 'length' determines how/if term weight should be
+ divided by lenght of metadata field. A value of "linear"
+ divide by length. A value of "log" will divide by log2(length).
