You can read [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/scoring-theory.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/scoring-theory.html) although a bit old it will still give you an idea.

Note that your question is not related to FSCrawler but to Elasticsearch, whatever the source of your documents is.
