Talk Abstract:
Elasticsearch supports different types of search models, each with a different scoring mechanism. The different models can be combined to implement a hybrid search approach to improve relevance. In this presentation, we will discuss the scoring for each model type and how to influence and combine scoring from multiple models. Finally, we will discuss different metrics for measuring relevance and evaluating a search implementation.
