electronics,games ,..etc.For some of the category values i need to boost
the document score.Let us say, for electronics category, i will decide the
boosting parameter grater than the games category.Is there any body has
the idea to achieve this functionality?

Would simple boosting work? As in category:electronics^2?

If not, perhaps you can explain a bit more about what you're trying to
