Abstract: The present disclosure includes systems and techniques relating to ranking search results of a search query. In general, the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in a computer-implemented method that includes determining a measure of relevance for a document result within a context of a search query for which the document result is returned, the determining being based on a first number in relation to a second number, the first number corresponding to longer views of the document result, and the second number corresponding to at least shorter views of the document result; and outputting the measure of relevance to a ranking engine for ranking of search results, including the document result, for a new search corresponding to the search query. The subject matter described in this specification can also be embodied in various corresponding computer program products, apparatus and systems.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for ranking images using hover data. In one aspect, a method includes determining a click count and a hover count for an image and a search query pair. The click count specifies a number of times that an image search result that includes a representation of the image has been selected when provided in response to the search query. The hover count specifies a number of times that the representation of the image has been hovered over when the image search result has been provided in response to the search query. A quality measure for the image with respect to the search query is determined. The quality measure is based on the click count and the hover count. A ranking of the image is adjusted for the search query based on the quality measure for the image.

Abstract: A stopword detection component detects stopwords (also stop-phrases) in search queries input to keyword-based information retrieval systems. Potential stopwords are initially identified by comparing the terms in the search query to a list of known stopwords. Context data is then retrieved based on the search query and the identified stopwords. In one implementation, the context data includes documents retrieved from a document index. In another implementation, the context data includes categories relevant to the search query. Sets of retrieved context data are compared to one another to determine if they are substantially similar. If the sets of context data are substantially similar, this fact may be used to infer that the removal of the potential stopword(s) is not material to the search. If the sets of context data are not substantially similar, the potential stopword can be considered material to the search and should not be removed from the query.

Abstract translation: 停止词检测组件在输入到基于关键字的信息检索系统的搜索查询中检测到停止词（也称为停止词）。 最初通过将搜索查询中的术语与已知无效词列表进行比较来识别潜在的禁忌词。 然后基于搜索查询和所识别的无效词来检索上下文数据。 在一个实现中，上下文数据包括从文档索引检索的文档。 在另一实现中，上下文数据包括与搜索查询相关的类别。 将检索到的上下文数据的集合彼此进行比较以确定它们是否基本相似。 如果上下文数据集合基本相似，则可以使用该事实来推断潜在的停止词的移除对搜索不重要。 如果上下文数据集基本上不相似，潜在的停用词可以被认为是搜索的重要内容，不应该从查询中移除。

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for reranking query completions based on activity session data. One of the methods includes receiving a query prefix from a user. Query completions are obtained for the query prefix. One or more likely queries that are likely to co-occur with a reference query in user activity sessions are obtained. If one of the likely queries matches one of the query completions, a modified ranking of the query completions is determined, including boosting a ranking of matching query completions. The modified ranking of the query completions is provided in response to receiving the query prefix.

Abstract: A system for generating a model is provided. The system generates, or selects, candidate conditions and generates, or otherwise obtains, statistics regarding the candidate conditions. The system also forms rules based, at least in part, on the statistics and the candidate conditions and selectively adds the rules to the model.
