This if for the FAQ, What parameters affects the scoring of a document ? A comprehensive itemized list will be greatly appreciated. If not, just send the items you are aware of and we will construct a single list. Here are a starting list but it is based mostly on speculations: (*) boost factor (*) location of the match inside the field (?) (*) length of the matched field (?) (*) number of matches (e.g. in 'any word' matching ) (?) (*) phrase similarity to actual matched sequence (?) (*) global frequency of matched terms (that is, in the entire index) (?) (*) frequency of the matched terms in the document field (?) (*) the relative scoring of other hits (scoring dependency) (?)
