# Script score query
|
|
|
|
Use a `script_score` query to customize the score calculation by using a script. For an expensive scoring function, you can use a `script_score` query to calculate the score only for the returned documents that have been filtered.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
For example, the following request creates an index containing one document:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
PUT testindex1/_doc/1
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "John Doe",
|
|
"multiplier": 0.5
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
You can use a `match` query to return all documents that contain `John` in the `name` field:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET testindex1/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"name": "John"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
In the response, document 1 has a score of `0.2876821`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"took": 7,
|
|
"timed_out": false,
|
|
"_shards": {
|
|
"total": 1,
|
|
"successful": 1,
|
|
"skipped": 0,
|
|
"failed": 0
|
|
},
|
|
"hits": {
|
|
"total": {
|
|
"value": 1,
|
|
"relation": "eq"
|
|
},
|
|
"max_score": 0.2876821,
|
|
"hits": [
|
|
{
|
|
"_index": "testindex1",
|
|
"_id": "1",
|
|
"_score": 0.2876821,
|
|
"_source": {
|
|
"name": "John Doe",
|
|
"multiplier": 0.5
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now let's change the document score by using a script that calculates the score as the value of the `_score` field multiplied by the value of the `multiplier` field. In the following query, you can access the current relevance score of a document in the `_score` variable and the `multiplier` value as `doc['multiplier'].value`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET testindex1/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"name": "John"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"script": {
|
|
"source": "_score * doc['multiplier'].value"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
In the response, the score for document 1 is half of the original score:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"took": 8,
|
|
"timed_out": false,
|
|
"_shards": {
|
|
"total": 1,
|
|
"successful": 1,
|
|
"skipped": 0,
|
|
"failed": 0
|
|
},
|
|
"hits": {
|
|
"total": {
|
|
"value": 1,
|
|
"relation": "eq"
|
|
},
|
|
"max_score": 0.14384104,
|
|
"hits": [
|
|
{
|
|
"_index": "testindex1",
|
|
"_id": "1",
|
|
"_score": 0.14384104,
|
|
"_source": {
|
|
"name": "John Doe",
|
|
"multiplier": 0.5
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
The `script_score` query supports the following top-level parameters.
|
|
|
|
Parameter | Data type | Description
|
|
:--- | :--- | :---
|
|
`query` | Object | The query used for search. Required.
|
|
`script` | Object | The script used to calculate the score of the documents returned by the `query`. Required.

|
## Customizing score calculation with built-in functions
|
|
|
|
To customize score calculation, you can use one of the built-in Painless functions. For every function, OpenSearch provides one or more Painless methods you can access in the script score context. You can call the Painless methods listed in the following sections directly without using a class name or instance name qualifier.
|
|
|
|
### Saturation
|
|
|
|
The saturation function calculates saturation as `score = value /(value + pivot)`, where `value` is the field value and `pivot` is chosen so that the score is greater than 0.5 if `value` is greater than `pivot` and less than 0.5 if `value` is less than `pivot`. The score is in the (0, 1) range. To apply a saturation function, call the following Painless method:
|
|
|
|
- `double saturation(double <field-value>, double <pivot>)`
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
|
|
The following example query searches for the text `neural search` in the `articles` index. It combines the original document relevance score with the `article_rank` value, which is first transformed with a saturation function:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET articles/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": { "article_name": "neural search" }
|
|
},
|
|
"script" : {
|
|
"source" : "_score + saturation(doc['article_rank'].value, 11)"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
### Sigmoid
|
|
|
|
Similarly to the saturation function, the sigmoid function calculates the score as `score = value^exp/ (value^exp + pivot^exp)`, where `value` is the field value, `exp` is an exponent scaling factor, and `pivot` is chosen so that the score is greater than 0.5 if `value` is greater than `pivot` and less than 0.5 if `value` is less than `pivot`. To apply a sigmoid function, call the following Painless method:
|
|
|
|
- `double sigmoid(double <field-value>, double <pivot>, double <exp>)`
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
|
|
The following example query searches for the text `neural search` in the `articles` index. It combines the original document relevance score with the `article_rank` value, which is first transformed with a sigmoid function:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET articles/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": { "article_name": "neural search" }
|
|
},
|
|
"script" : {
|
|
"source" : "_score + sigmoid(doc['article_rank'].value, 11, 2)"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
### Random score
|
|
|
|
The random score function generates uniformly distributed random scores in the [0, 1) range. To learn how the function works, see [The random score function]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/query-dsl/compound/function-score#the-random-score-function). To apply a random score function, call one of the following Painless methods:
|
|
|
|
- `double randomScore(int <seed>)`: Uses the internal Lucene document IDs as seed values.
|
|
- `double randomScore(int <seed>, String <field-name>)`
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
|
|
The following query uses the `random_score` function with a `seed` and a `field`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET articles/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": { "article_name": "neural search" }
|
|
},
|
|
"script" : {
|
|
"source" : "randomScore(20, '_seq_no')"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
### Decay functions
|
|
|
|
With decay functions, you can score results based on proximity or recency. To learn more, see [Decay functions]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/query-dsl/compound/function-score#decay-functions). You can calculate scores using an exponential, Gaussian, or linear decay curve. To apply a decay function, call one of the following Painless methods, depending on the field type:
|
|
|
|
- [Numeric]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/field-types/supported-field-types/numeric/) fields:
|
|
- `double decayNumericGauss(double <origin>, double <scale>, double <offset>, double <decay>, double <field-value>)`
|
|
- `double decayNumericExp(double <origin>, double <scale>, double <offset>, double <decay>, double <field-value>)`
|
|
- `double decayNumericLinear(double <origin>, double <scale>, double <offset>, double <decay>, double <field-value>)`
|
|
- [Geopoint]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/field-types/supported-field-types/geo-point/) fields:
|
|
- `double decayGeoGauss(String <origin>, String <scale>, String <offset>, double <decay>, GeoPoint <field-value>)`
|
|
- `double decayGeoExp(String <origin>, String <scale>, String <offset>, double <decay>, GeoPoint <field-value>)`
|
|
- `double decayGeoLinear(String <origin>, String <scale>, String <offset>, double <decay>, GeoPoint <field-value>)`
|
|
- [Date]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/field-types/supported-field-types/date/) fields:
|
|
- `double decayDateGauss(String <origin>, String <scale>, String <offset>, double <decay>, JodaCompatibleZonedDateTime <field-value>)`
|
|
- `double decayDateExp(String <origin>, String <scale>, String <offset>, double <decay>, JodaCompatibleZonedDateTime <field-value>)`
|
|
- `double decayDateLinear(String <origin>, String <scale>, String <offset>, double <decay>, JodaCompatibleZonedDateTime <field-value>)`
|
|
|
|
#### Example: Numeric fields
|
|
|
|
The following query uses the exponential decay function on a numeric field:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET articles/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"article_name": "neural search"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"script": {
|
|
"source": "decayNumericExp(params.origin, params.scale, params.offset, params.decay, doc['article_rank'].value)",
|
|
"params": {
|
|
"origin": 50,
|
|
"scale": 20,
|
|
"offset": 30,
|
|
"decay": 0.5
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
#### Example: Geopoint fields
|
|
|
|
The following query uses the Gaussian decay function on a geopoint field:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET hotels/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"name": "hotel"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"script": {
|
|
"source": "decayGeoGauss(params.origin, params.scale, params.offset, params.decay, doc['location'].value)",
|
|
"params": {
|
|
"origin": "40.71,74.00",
|
|
"scale": "300ft",
|
|
"offset": "200ft",
|
|
"decay": 0.25
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
#### Example: Date fields
|
|
|
|
The following query uses the linear decay function on a date field:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET blogs/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"name": "opensearch"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"script": {
|
|
"source": "decayDateLinear(params.origin, params.scale, params.offset, params.decay, doc['date_posted'].value)",
|
|
"params": {
|
|
"origin": "2022-04-24",
|
|
"scale": "6d",
|
|
"offset": "1d",
|
|
"decay": 0.25
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
### Term frequency functions
|
|
|
|
Term frequency functions expose term-level statistics in the score script source. You can use these statistics to implement custom information retrieval and ranking algorithms, like query-time multiplicative or additive score boosting by popularity. To apply a term frequency function, call one of the following Painless methods:
|
|
|
|
- `int termFreq(String <field-name>, String <term>)`: Retrieves the term frequency within a field for a specific term.
|
|
- `long totalTermFreq(String <field-name>, String <term>)`: Retrieves the total term frequency within a field for a specific term.
|
|
- `long sumTotalTermFreq(String <field-name>)`: Retrieves the sum of total term frequencies within a field.
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
|
|
The following query calculates the score as the total term frequency for each field in the `fields` list multiplied by the `multiplier` value:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET /demo_index_v1/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"function_score": {
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"match_all": {}
|
|
},
|
|
"script_score": {
|
|
"script": {
|
|
"source": """
|
|
for (int x = 0; x < params.fields.length; x++) {
|
|
String field = params.fields[x];
|
|
if (field != null) {
|
|
return params.multiplier * totalTermFreq(field, params.term);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
return params.default_value;
|
|
|
|
""",
|
|
"params": {
|
|
"fields": ["title", "description"],
|
|
"term": "ai",
|
|
"multiplier": 2,
|
|
"default_value": 1
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
|
|
|
If [`search.allow_expensive_queries`]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/query-dsl/index/#expensive-queries) is set to `false`, `script_score` queries are not executed.
