Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving a query provided from a user device, and determining that the query is implicitly about some entity, and in response: obtaining an approximate location of the user device when the user device provided the query, obtaining a set of entities including one or more entities, each entity in the set of entities being associated with the approximate location, and determining that the query is implicitly about an entity in the set of entities, and in response: providing a revised query based on the query and the entity, the revised query explicitly referencing the entity.
