Methods and computer-storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that facilitate determining enhanced query suggestions are provided. A plurality of query suggestions responsive to a user query are received. Items of data corresponding to the query suggestions are received. Based on the received query suggestions and the received items of data, enhanced query suggestions are determined. In embodiments, an enhanced query suggestion includes one or more items of data related to a respective query suggestion. A user may select at least a portion of an enhanced query suggestion. In embodiments, selection of a portion of an enhanced query suggestion provides additional information.

Systems, methods, and computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that return query completions are provided. A user of a computing device like a mobile phone may enter a prefix. In turn, the prefix and location information associated with the device are transmitted to a server device. The server device receives the prefix and location information. The prefix and the location information are matched with names and locations of entities stored in a database connected to the server device. The server device transmits query completion data to the mobile device. The query completion data includes one or more names that complete the received prefix. The names provided by the server device may be associated with entities that are within a threshold radius of the location information.

Methods, computer systems, and computer-readable storage media for dynamically correcting misspelled search queries are provided. A portion of a search query is received, and a data store is accessed. It is determined that the portion of the search query is absent from the data store and, thus, comprises a misspelled portion of a search query. Correctly spelled portions of search queries are dynamically determined for the misspelled portion of the search query using a trie data structure, and the misspelled portion of the search query is associated with the correctly spelled portions of search queries. Search suggestions are determined for the correctly spelled portions of search queries and are ranked based on a frequency of use and on a transformation cost of associating the misspelled portion of the search query with the correctly spelled portion of search queries. The ranked search suggestions are provided to a user.

摘要:
Methods, systems, algorithms, and media are provided for disambiguating entities present in a received search query. Lists of categories from semi-structured data from external sites as well as internal sources are used to detect if ambiguity exists in an entity within the search query. Multiple senses or categories of the ambiguous entity are determined by ascertaining the primary intent of an entity extracted from a main term of a document. The probability of each sense is calculated by computing a total amount of traffic received for each of the senses of the ambiguous entity. The sense with the highest amount of computed traffic is the most probable determined sense.
摘要:
Systems, methods, and computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon for permitting webmasters to explicitly specify links or other web pages that the webmaster believes visitors to the web site or web page are interested in viewing are provided. Systems and methods for identifying explicitly-specified site-link data upon crawling the web site, indexing the site-link data in association with the web site or a web page, and exposing at least a portion of such site-link data when the associated web site and/or web page surfaces as the result of an input search query are also provided.
摘要:
Methods, computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for identifying and presenting rich related sites for task-oriented search queries. Upon receipt of a search query input by a user, one or more query logs are analyzed to determine if the search query is a related to a task being performed by the user. If the query is determined to be a task-oriented search query, search results are identified, as is one or more Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) related to a particular search result. The related URL is presented to the user in association with the particular search result. Additional controls, e.g., search tools that facilitate querying of those URLs determined to be relevant to a particular search result, may also be provided to aid the user in performing the task at hand.
摘要:
Methods and computer-readable media are provided for displaying a target search result and relevant information on a search results page in response to a user-inputted query on a search page. The target search result and relevant information are identified in a database as having been previously determined to be most relevant to the query, and may be based on past user behavior, for example. The relevant information may include functional tools that include input boxes allowing for the user to interact with a webpage associated with the target search result via the search results page. Once the target search result and relevant information have been determined, the search results page is displayed.
摘要:
Computer-readable media and computerized methods for identifying candidate points on a graphical depiction of relative popularity of an entity (e.g., entertainer, sports team, and the like) are provided. Points on the graphical depiction are ranked based on a number of user-submitted web queries that reference the entity that are received during a particular time frame. Peak points and slope values (i.e., derived from an angle of inclination of inclines on the graphical depiction) may be captured by analyzing movements in the rank of an entity over time. An algorithmic process may then be applied to the peak points and slope values to determine points of interest of the entity's popularity, such as the highest-ranked periods and/or dramatic positive movements in rank of the entity. These points of interest are selected as candidate points and are surfaced as icons on a visual representation of the graphical depiction.
