Hi,
I have a similar question as to me it is not obvious how exactly the simliarity matching works. I suspect it to be some form of a weighted string matching between the given fields. In our tests, this only slightly influenced the ranking of results.
Will there more information on how to optimally handle the simliarity search feature and what's happening under the hood? If it worked well, it might be useful for some of our chatbot-focused Discovery projects (suggesting better answers on demand etc.).

Hi Christophe,
Document similarity is available now for Discovery V2, yes?
Currently, attempting:
...
similar: {
enabled: true,
document_ids: ["a_doc_id"],
fields: []
}
...
but this is not affecting the results returned. What could be the issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Michel,
Document Similarity is not yet available in WD v2. We plan to add it on 2022.
