hi Fiz, I think the BooleanSimilarityFactory is what you're looking for here - see https://solr.apache.org/guide/8_11/other-schema-elements.html#similarity and https://solr.apache.org/docs/8_11_1/solr-core/index.html?org/apache/solr/search/similarities/BooleanSimilarityFactory.html
(I added this in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13751 but haven't found a concrete use case for it yet other than for training purposes - would be interested to know if it's useful to you!)
