Thank you everyone for your comments and recommendations. Will consider all
these points in my implementation.

That is the meaning of the score from a probabilistic model search engine. Solr

Honeslty the only case where the score in percentage could make sense, is

In that case Solr should provide that feature as we perfectly know that the
100 % similar score is a copy of the seed document.

Currently I've take the score that I get from Solr, and divide it by the
maxScore, and multiply it by 100 to get the percentage. All these are done
on the coding for the UI. The user will only see the percentage and will
not know anything about the score. Since the score by itself is
meaningless, s

We want the user to see how relevant the result is with respect to the
search query entered, and not how "good" the results are.
But I suspect a problem is that the 1st record will always be 100%,
regardless of what is the score, as the 1st record score will always be
equals to the maxScore.

The question is more why do you want your users to see the scores?
If they are wanting to affect ranking, what you want is the ability to run
the same query with different boosting and see the difference (2 result
sets), then see if the new ordering is better or worse. What the
actual/raw score i
Correct. The relevancy score simply states that we think result #1 is
more relevant than result #2. It doesn't say that #1 is relevant.
The score doesn't have any validity across queries either, as, for
example, a different number of query terms will cause the score to
change.

Hi Arslan,
Thank you for the link. That means we are not advisable to show anything
that's related to the relevancy score, even though the default sorting of
the result is by relevancy score? Since showing the raw relevancy score
does not make any sense to the user since they won't understand what
Hi Edwin,
Somehow, it is not recommended to display the relevancy score in percentage:

I understand from the older version that it is not able to, and the only
way is to take the highest score and use that as 100%, and calculate other
percentage from that number (
