2        .typeAhead(true)
3        .category(true)
4        .build()
5FuzzyLocationDescriptor fuzzyLocationDescriptor = new FuzzyLocationDescriptor.Builder()
6        .positionBias(new LatLngBias(position, STANDARD_RADIUS))
7        .build();
8return new FuzzySearchSpecification.Builder(text)
9        .searchEngineDescriptor(fuzzySearchEngineDescriptor)
10        .locationDescriptor(fuzzyLocationDescriptor)
11        .build();
1val locationDescriptor = FuzzyLocationDescriptor.Builder()
2    .positionBias(preciseness)
3    .build()
4

5val searchEngineDescriptor = FuzzySearchEngineDescriptor.Builder()
6    .category(true)
7    .build()
