This document outlines the current status and future plans for incorporating external ranking methods into Invenio. It discusses available ranking methods such as word similarity and citation count, and the current implementation of word similarity ranking. Written in Python, this approach aims to bridge Invenio with external information retrieval systems while ensuring scalability for approximately 2 million records. The document highlights ongoing integration efforts, expected completion by the end of June, and future priorities driven by community feedback, including potential features like a Xapian adapter and further ranking methods.
