    摘要: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods automatically generate and provide an interactive rich set of personalized query suggestions within a unified framework. The disclosed systems and methods are able to integrate attributes associated with message data and metadata by transforming such attributes into facets that are combined with term suggestions and presented to the user in a unified manner. The instant disclosure provides an interactive search suggestion mechanism that narrows the search as the user interacts with the dynamically generated and provided suggestions.

    摘要: Methods and computer program products for generating a search query are provided. A method includes receiving a first string of characters inputted into a text input field of a graphical user interface, wherein the first string of characters represents a first portion of the search query. One or more query suggestions based on the first string of characters are displayed within the graphical user interface. The method further includes receiving a selected first query suggestion and displaying it in a first query segment within the text input field. A second string of characters inputted into the text input field of the graphical user interface may also be received. One or more second query suggestions based on the second string of characters may be displayed. A selected second query suggestion may be received from the one or more second query suggestions and then displayed in a second query segment.

    摘要: A method, system and computer program product for building a data query engine. Initial taxonomies that describe and categorize data are built by expert users (e.g., data scientists) employing machine learning algorithms. The data is also indexed and stored in an index. Queries are then received from non-expert users to query the data based on data categorization from built taxonomies and the indexing. After the queries are executed using the machine learning algorithms in an environment (e.g., Hadoop®), the results of the queries are rated for relevance, precision and accuracy. The machine learning algorithms are also rated based on the number of successful queries. Those machine learning algorithms with a rating above a threshold are identified to be utilized to scan new data to be stored in the index to provide a new environment that replaces the initial environment.

    摘要: The present invention discloses an input-based candidate word display method and apparatus. The method comprises: adopting an input pinyin character string to search for one or more candidate words; determining whether the candidate words are allographic synonyms; if so, configuring allographic synonym prompt information for the candidate words belonging to the allographic synonyms; and displaying the one or more candidate words and the allographic synonym prompt information. In the embodiments of the present invention, a user is prompted that the candidate words are allographic synonyms, thereby reducing a probability of incorrect input and improving input efficiency.

    摘要: The present invention includes systems and methods for retrieving information via a flexible and consistent targeted search model that employs interactive dynamic menu information retrieval techniques that provide context-specific functionality tailored to particular information channels, as well as to records within or across such channels, and other known state information. Users are presented with a consistent search interface among multiple tiers across and within a large domain of information sources, and need not learn different or special search syntax. A thin-client server-controlled architecture enables users of resource-constrained mobile communications devices to locate targeted information more quickly by entering fewer keystrokes and performing fewer query iterations and web page refreshes, which in turn reduces required network bandwidth.

    摘要: Embodiments are directed to a spellcheck module for an enterprise search engine. The spellcheck module includes a candidate suggestion generation module that generates a number of candidate words that may be the correction of the misspelled word. The candidate suggestion generation module implements an algorithm for indexing, searching, and storing terms from an index with a constrained edit distance, using words in a collection of documents. The spellcheck module further includes a candidate suggestion ranking module. In one embodiment, a non-contextual approach using a linear combination of distance and probability scores is utilized; while in another embodiment, a context sensitive approach accounting for real-word misspells and adopting deep learning models is utilized. In use, a query is provided to the spellcheck module to generate results in the form of a ranked list of generated candidate entries that may be an entry a user accidentally misspelled.

    摘要: A method for providing a local search suggestion. The method includes the steps as follows: acquiring, based on a current page presented in user equipment, page content information corresponding to page content currently browsed by a user; determining at least one local search suggestion matching the page content information; and presenting the at least one local search suggestion in the user equipment. According to the method of the present disclosure, at least one local search suggestion can be determined based on the page content currently browsed by the user, thus achieving a relatively high integrating degree between the local search suggestion and a user searching requirement, such that the user can quickly find a needed search suggestion, thereby shortening the time needed by the searching process.
