ATG Search uses a relevancy score to rank results (see the Relevancy Calculation section of the Search Concepts and Processes chapter). The relevancy score is calculated based on how well the statement matches the query, plus how related the retrieved index item of that statement is to the query.
During the collection of the final results, before grouping and secondary sorting, ATG Search applies a minimum threshold on the relevancy score, using the following attribute:
<query minScore="min"The min value must range from 0 to 1000, and defaults to 0. Results that do not meet the minimum threshold are discarded.
