and recall as perceived by the user making the search query.</p> <p><em>Ranking</em> refers to the ordering of items and <em>recall</em> refers to the number of relevant items retrieved. An <em>item</em> (also referred to as a document) is any piece of digital content that Google Cloud Search can index. Types of items include Microsoft Office documents, PDF files, a row in a database, unique URLs, and so on. An item is comprised of:</p> <ul> <li>Structured metadata</li> <li>Indexable content</li> <li>ACLs</li> </ul> <p>Cloud Search uses a variety of signals to retrieve and to rank search query results; the items resulting from a search query. You can influence Cloud Search’s signals through settings in the schema, the item's content and metadata (during indexing), and the search application. The goal of this document is to help you improve search quality through modification of these signal influencers.</p> <aside class="warning"><strong>Warning:</strong><span> Because of the subjective nature of search quality, it is essential that you understand the business use cases and user's expectations for the search experience before tuning settings. Undisciplined tuning of settings can result in a poor search experience.</span></aside> <p>For a summary of recommended and optional settings, refer to <a href="#summary">Summary of recommended and optional search quality settings</a>.</p> <aside class="note"><strong>Note:</strong><span> Before you read this document, read <a href="/cloud-search/docs/guides/schema-guide">Create and register a schema</a> for a basic explanation of schema structure.</span></aside> <h2 id="influence_topicality_score" data-text="Influence topicality score" tabindex="-1">Influence topicality score</h2> <p><em>Topicality</em> refers to the relevance of a search result to the original query terms. Topicality of an item is calculated based on the following criteria:</p> <ul> <li>The importance of each query term.</li> <li>The number of hits (the number of times a query term appears in the item’s content or metadata).</li> <li>The type of matches the query term, and their variants, have with an item indexed in Cloud Search.</li> </ul> <p>To influence a text property's topicality score, define the <a href="/cloud-search/docs/reference/rest/v1/Schema#RetrievalImportance"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">RetrievalImportance</code></a> on the text property in your schema. A match on a property with high <code translate="no" dir="ltr">RetrievalImportance</code> results in a higher score compared to a match on a property with low <code translate="no" dir="ltr">RetrievalImportance</code>.</p> <p>For example, suppose you have a data source with the following characteristics:</p> <ul> <li>The data source is used to store history for software bugs.</li> <li>Each bug has a name, description, and priority.</li> </ul> <p>Most users would query this data source using the bug name, so you would set the <code translate="no" dir="ltr">RetrievalImportance</code> on the name to <code translate="no" dir="ltr">HIGHEST</code> in the schema.</p> <p>Conversely, most users may not query this data source using the description of the bug, so, set the <code translate="no" dir="ltr">RetrievalImportance</code> on the description to <code translate="no" dir="ltr">DEFAULT</code>. Following is sample schema containing <code translate="no" dir="ltr">RetrievalImportance</code> settings.</p> <div></div><devsite-code><pre class="devsite-click-to-copy" translate="no" dir="ltr" is-upgraded syntax="Text only"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">{ "objectDefinitions": [ { "name": "issues", "propertyDefinitions": [ { "name": "summary", "textPropertyOptions": { "retrievalImportance": { "importance": HIGHEST } } }, { "name": "description", "textPropertyOptions": { "retrievalImportance": { "importance": DEFAULT } } }, { "name": "label", "isRepeatable": true, "textPropertyOptions": { "retrievalImportance": { "importance": DEFAULT } } }, { "name": "comments", "textPropertyOptions": { "retrievalImportance": { "importance": DEFAULT } } }, { "name": "project", "textPropertyOptions": { "retrievalImportance": { "importance": HIGH } } }, { "name": "duedate", "datePropertyOptions": { } }, ... ] } ] } </code></pre></devsite-code> <p>In the case of HTML documents, tags such as <code translate="no" dir="ltr"><title></code> and <code translate="no" dir="ltr"><h1></code>, along with formatting settings such as font size and bolding, are used for determining the importance of various terms.

In this scenario, you might want a high <code translate="no" dir="ltr">freshnessDuration</code> because changes to employee information is often not relevant to the ranking of the employee.

In this scenario, the most-recently created or modified documents are most relevant. Following is sample schema containing <code translate="no" dir="ltr">freshnessDuration</code> setting for a data source containing rapidly changing content:</p> <div></div><devsite-code><pre class="devsite-click-to-copy" translate="no" dir="ltr" is-upgraded syntax="Text only"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">{ "objectDefinitions": [ { "name": "news", "options": { "freshnessOptions": { "freshnessDuration": "259200s", # 3 days } }, } ] } </code></pre></devsite-code> <h2 id="influence_quality" data-text="Influence quality" tabindex="-1">Influence quality</h2> <p><em>Quality</em> is a measurement of the accuracy and usefulness of an item.
