摘要:
A search engine system accepts queries that include query terms and labels applicable to certain documents. A domain filter is constructed that is used to filter search results to certain domains, where the domains are determined based on the labels included in the query. The filtered search results are processed to ensure that certain portions of the results are from domains included in the filter. The results are further processed to include the query labels with certain ones of the results.

This invention relates to determining page elements to display in response to a search. A method embodiment of this invention determines a page element based on a search result. The method includes: (1) determining a set of result classifications based on the search result, wherein each result classification includes a result category and a result score; and (2) determining the page element based on the set of result classifications. In this way, a classification is determined based on a search result and page elements are generated based on the classification. By using the search result, as opposed to just the query, page elements are generated that corresponds to a predominant interpretation of the user's query within the search results. As result, the page elements may, in most cases, accurately reflect the user's intent.

A system and method of disambiguating entities in a computerized web search includes identifying a set of potential meanings for an entity; retrieving at least one web page having descriptions referencing the entity; establishing a base web page having a selected context for the entity; attributing dimensions of a vector space attributed to domains in the retrieved web page; and computing a probability of similarity between the referenced entity in the retrieved web page and the entity in the base web page. The method includes corresponding a similarity measure between the dimensions of the vector space attributed to domains in the retrieved web page and a likelihood of the retrieved web page referring to the entity in the base web page. The method further includes ranking web pages based on the computed probability of similarity.
摘要:
Context, or user intent, is used for improving targeting of advertisements and for generating competition among advertisers for valuable ad space. Advertisers can bid for placement on search results pages based on combinations of keywords and context categories, or keywords and contexts. Such bids are compared to one another so that appropriate ads can be selected and displayed. By taking context into account, improved ad targeting is accomplished.
摘要:
Search results are generated using aggregated context data from two or more contexts. When two or more programmable search engines relate to a similar topic, context data associated with the programmable search engines are aggregated. The context is then applied to a query in order to present, in an integrated manner, relevant search results that make use of context intelligence from more than one programmable search engine.
摘要:
A programmable search engine system is programmable by a variety of different entities, such as client devices and vertical content sites to customize search results for users. Context files store instructions for controlling the operations of the programmable search engine. The context files are processed by various context processors, which use the instructions therein to provide various pre-processing, post-processing, and search engine control operations. Spam related and biased contexts and search results are identified using offline and query time processing stages, and the context files from vertical content providers associated with such spam and biased context and results are excluded from processing on direct user queries.
