Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`S`	`boost(float boost)`	Boost the weight of the predicate in score computation.
`S`	`constantScore()`	Force the score of the predicate to a single constant, identical for all documents.

- Method Detail
  - boost
```
S boost(float boost)
```
    Boost the weight of the predicate in score computation.
    
    Specified by:
    
    boost in interface PredicateBoostStep<S>
    
    Parameters:
    
    boost - The boost factor. Higher than 1 increases the weight in score computation, between 0 and 1 lowers the weight. Lower than 0 is for experts only.
    
    Returns:
    
    this, for method chaining.
  - constantScore
```
S constantScore()
```
    Force the score of the predicate to a single constant, identical for all documents.
    By default, the score will be 1.0f, but boosts, if any, will still be applied to the predicate.
    
    Returns:
    
    this, for method chaining.
