摘要： A user's domain expertise may be estimated through several factors by monitoring different aspects of a user's interaction with a web browser. Based on the user's domain expertise, search results may be presented to the user that is commensurate with their expertise, resulting in a more efficient and productive on line session. A user's expertise in a knowledge domain may be determined from the user's behavior, including analyzing search queries, monitoring how the user navigates between and through websites, and analyzing the specific cites visited. As a user interacts with a browser, the user's estimated domain expertise may be updated and used to provide appropriate and useful search results. In many embodiments, a user may have different expertise levels for different technical domains.

摘要： Search and browse trails are temporally-ordered sequences of web pages visited by a user during post-search query navigation beginning with a page associated with one of the search results. The trails can provide useful information for a number of search-related purposes. For example, these trails can be used to leverage the post-query behavior of other users to help the current user search more effectively and allow them to make more informed search interaction decisions. The trails can also be used to establish search results and refine search result rankings, select and evaluate deeplinks, and recommend multi-step trails as an alternative to or enhancement for existing search result presentation techniques.

摘要翻译： 搜索和浏览轨迹是在与搜索结果之一相关联的页面开始的后搜索查询导航期间由用户访问的网页的时间排序的序列。 路线可以为许多与搜索有关的目的提供有用的信息。 例如，这些路径可用于利用其他用户的查询后行为来更有效地帮助当前的用户搜索，并允许他们进行更为明智的搜索交互决策。 跟踪也可用于建立搜索结果，优化搜索结果排名，选择和评估深层链接，并推荐多步骤跟踪作为现有搜索结果呈现技术的替代或增强。

摘要： It has been found that user navigation that follows search engine interactions provides implicit endorsement of resources (such as web resources) that are preferred by users, and which may be particularly valuable for exploratory search tasks. Thus, a combination of past searching and browsing user behavior is analyzed to identify additional information that augments search results delivered by a search engine. The additional information may include a display of hyperlinks to locations which are derived from the past searching and browsing user behavior, given a specific input query. The additional information may be provided to supplement web search results.

摘要翻译： 已经发现，搜索引擎交互之后的用户导航提供了用户优选的资源（例如web资源）的隐含认可，并且对于探索性搜索任务可能特别有价值。 因此，分析过去搜索和浏览用户行为的组合以识别增加搜索引擎提供的搜索结果的附加信息。 附加信息可以包括对给定特定输入查询的从过去搜索和浏览用户行为导出的位置的超链接的显示。 可以提供附加信息以补充网络搜索结果。

摘要： A component presents access to a recommended search provider via a user interface element. In an example embodiment, a device-implemented method for recommending a search provider includes acts of receiving, ascertaining, and modifying. A search query input is received. A recommended search provider is ascertained at least partially responsive to the search query input. A user interface is modified to indicate the recommended search provider.

摘要： Escalations in users' goals or concerns in web-based searching and browsing may be predicted. An escalation feature is extracted from a webpage and run through a classifier trained to estimate a likelihood that a subsequent search query will comprise an escalation when compared to a previous search query and/or that a subsequent webpage selection will comprise an escalation when compared to a previous webpage selection. It can thus be predicted whether a user visiting a current webpage is likely to escalate or navigate to another webpage based upon the current webpage, for example.

摘要： One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for predicting escalations in users' goals or concerns in web-based searching and browsing. One or more escalation features are extracted from a webpage. The one or more escalation features are run through a classifier trained to estimate a likelihood of escalation. An escalation likelihood result is generated from running the trained classifier using the extracted features. The escalation likelihood result can comprise an estimation that a subsequent search query will comprise an escalation when compared to a previous search query. The escalation likelihood result can also comprise an estimation that a subsequent webpage selection will comprise an escalation when compared to a previous webpage selection.

摘要： Described is a search technology in which a search engine constructs a results page for a query that integrates suggested queries with the individual query results (e.g., displayed URLs). When rendered, the proximity of the suggested queries to their corresponding individual query result provides context as to the specific URL to which the suggested query is related. Suggested queries may appear alongside their associated search result, e.g., a displayed URL, and/or in an expandable panel proximate that individual search result. Suggested queries may appear within text accompanying a URL, and/or in a drop down menu following interaction with such text or the like. Related queries may be found by using a search result URL to find a query, by analyzing a search result's text snippet, by accessing historical data, and/or by accessing current user session data.
