It would be interesting if you could have a function that would
Dynamically add a score based on a predicate expression.
Such as
cts:boost-score($cts:query, 16, 5000)
Where
1st param was the query to evaluate to the document score or quality.
2nd param would be the quality weight to add based on the expression.
3rd param would be the number of records to evaluate from current
returned results such that lower result items did not have to be
evaluated passed a certain result (kinda like a 2 phase query process)
1st query results using the current search
2nd boost any results that have the defined predicate expression.
I wouldn't know if this is technically possible or theoretically
incorrect but would be a powerful function.
Just as a note I first believed that you could use nested OR expressions
That would add weight if the OR expression evaluated to true
[base-query]
OR
OR EXPR1 = range(2007 - 2000) weight: 16
OR EXPR2 = range(1999 - 1990) weight: 10
OR EXPR3 = range(1989 - 1980) weight: 6
OR EXPR4 range(< 1980) weight: -16
Unfortunately the expression does not evaluate the OR Expression in
computing the sore

I have a set of documents that are keyword searchable in MarkLogic.
They each have the year of publication set, e.g. <year>1972</year>.
I've been asked if I can influence the relevancy of the search results
based on the year of publication even if it wasn't used in the search
by the user. The desired effect is that documents published recently
rank higher than documents published 30 years ago.
The only obvious way I can think to do this is by using document
quality. Is there another approach?
Thanks,
Matt
