How to score result in elasticsearch?

sorry for my newbie question, i dont know how elasticsearch score result :smile:

i read in https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/scoring-theory.html it have :

tf(t in d) = √frequency 
idf(t) = 1 + log ( numDocs / (docFreq + 1)) 
norm(d) = 1 / √numTerms  

In java, i try search and setExplain(True). My respone is....

{
  "took" : 3,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 5,
    "successful" : 5,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : 61,

        } ]
      }
    } 

My example have 7620 record , i used plugin https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-index-termlist , it have

 "took" : 610,
  "numdocs" : 7620,
  "numterms" : 33407,

Who know please explain how to score it :slight_smile: . Pls show me how it math :X
Thanks you very much

Anybody please help me know what exactly elasticsearch score T_T ?

Thanks you

What do you mean of "score result" exactly, time of searching query or something else ?
ps: mình cũng mới tình hiểu dc 2 tuần ,~(‾▿‾)~

"exactly" that mean algorithm elasticsearch use for scoring in .setExplain(true) in java.

i use algorithm write in guide elasticsearch, but it not true with my example. i dont know how it work

Thus, i want anybody know that please explain to me " How elasticsearch Scoring " in my example (or any example its ok, i only want know how it working,what is numDocs, docFreq in .setExplain(true) ).

Thanks for your help !

p/s: You can pm me if want speak our language @tranthanhbao2207 :))
