Language modeling extension for Lucene

For many of our IR experiments, we use Lucene - a high-performance retrieval engine written in Java. We have extended Lucene to use language modeling for scoring documents; this extension can be obtained here, under the same license as the one Lucene is distributed with. Please contact us with any questions or suggestions about it.
