Is there any field boosting used in calculating bm25 score ?

[coolb0y]

I have 2 questions regarding this dataset. It will be great if someone can address them.

1. Is there any field boosting used while calculating bm25 scores of the result returned by the queries ?
2. How did you include year into the bm25 score using some different pattern or functional score ? (As documentation suggests you have used title, overview, tags, genres, director, actors, characters, year in the process ) Thank You in Advance.

1. No, no field boosting was used. Just a set of fields in ES with no particular priority.
2. year was included as a regular text string, as there's plenty of queries like "toy story 1995"
