摘要:
Methods and systems for Web-scale entity relationship extraction are usable to build large-scale entity relationship graphs from any data corpora stored on a computer-readable medium or accessible through a network. Such entity relationship graphs may be used to navigate previously undiscoverable relationships among entities within data corpora. Additionally, the entity relationship extraction may be configured to utilize discriminative models to jointly model correlated data found within the selected corpora.

Systems, methods, devices, and media are described to facilitate the training and employing of a three-class classifier for post-execution search query reformulation. In some embodiments, the classification is trained through a supervised learning process, based on a training set of queries mined from a query log. Query reformulation candidates are determined for each query in the training set, and searches are performed using each reformulation candidate and the un-reformulated training query. The resulting documents lists are analyzed to determine ranking and topic drift features, and to calculate a quality classification. The features and classification for each reformulation candidate are used to train the classifier in an offline mode. In some embodiments, the classifier is employed in an online mode to dynamically perform query reformulation on user-submitted queries.

A search method uses pseudo-anchor text associated with search objects to improve search performance. The pseudo-anchor text may be extracted in combination with an identifier of the search objects (such as a pseudo-URL) from a digital corpus such as a collection of documents. Pseudo-anchor texts for each object are preferably extracted from candidate anchor blocks using a machine learning based approach. The pseudo-anchor texts are made available for searching and used to help rank the objects in a search result to improve search performance. The method may be used in vertical search of objects such as published articles, products and images that lack explicit URLs and anchor text information.

A method and system is provided for determining relevance of an object to a term based on a language model. The relevance system provides records extracted from web pages that relate to the object. To determine the relevance of the object to a term, the relevance system first determines, for each record of the object, a probability of generating that term using a language model of the record of that object. The relevance system then calculates the relevance of the object to the term by combining the probabilities. The relevance system may also weight the probabilities based on the accuracy or reliability of the extracted information for each data source.

This disclosure relates to performing a query for a search term of a database containing a plurality of structured documents. Those structured documents that do not include the search term are ferreted or filtered out during an initial search. Matched structured documents which are those structured documents that do contain the search term are evaluated by ranking the individual elements based on how well each individual element matches the search term, and indicating to the user the ranking of the individual elements wherein the individual elements can be accessed by the user.

This document describes tools for adjusting anchor text weight to provide more relevant search engine results. Specifically, these tools take advantage of a site-relationship model to consider relationships not only between an anchor text source site and a destination page but also relationships between multiple anchor text source sites to improve web searches. Consideration of these relationships aids in determining a new an anchor text weight, which in turn results in more relevant search results.

Interactive synchronization of Web data and spreadsheets is usable to build data wrappers based on any type of data found in a document. Such data wrappers can be used to interact with source documents, crawl a network for additional data, map data from across domains, and/or synchronize data from dynamic Web documents.

Described is a technology for efficiently labeling a webpage. A wrapper tool labels records of a webpage at the record level. If an existing wrapper exists that is appropriate for labeling a record, the wrapper tool automatically labels that record. For unlabeled records, the tool provides a user interface to label those records, and updates the set of existing wrappers with a new wrapper that is generated based upon the labeling operation; the new wrapper is then applied to any unlabeled records if appropriate for those records. As a result, a user typically needs only to label a relatively few records, with the wrappers generated for those records automatically used to label the other unlabeled records of the webpage.
摘要:
Described is a technology for understanding entities of a webpage, e.g., to label the entities on the webpage. An iterative and bidirectional framework processes a webpage, including a text understanding component (e.g., extended Semi-CRF model) that provides text segmentation features to a structure understanding component (e.g., extended HCRF model). The structure understanding component uses the text segmentation features and visual layout features of the webpage to identify a structure (e.g., labeled block). The text understanding component in turn uses the labeled block to further understand the text. The process continues iteratively until a similarity criterion is met, at which time the entities may be labeled. Also described is the use of multiple mentions of a set of text in the webpage to help in labeling an entity.
