Search results provided by a search engine (e.g., for the Internet) are improved and/or made more accurate by addressing the limited availability of human labeled training data for certain domains (e.g., languages other than English, within certain date ranges, corresponding to queries over a certain length, etc.). More particularly, a ranking model trained on in-domain data, for which a small amount of human labeled training data (e.g., query/URL pairs) is available (e.g., languages other than English) is adjusted based upon out-domain data, for which a large amount of human labeled training data (e.g., query/URL pairs) is available (e.g., English). Thus, even though the resulting adapted in-domain ranking model is used in the context of in-domain data (e.g., non-English) to provide search results, the search results are improved because they are influenced by an abundance of, albeit out-domain, human labeled training data.
