摘要:
A method and system for adapting search results of a query to the information needs of the user submitting the query is provided. A search system analyzes click-through triplets indicating that a user submitted a query and that the user selected a document from the results of the query. To overcome the large size and sparseness of the click-through data, the search system when presented with an input triplet comprising a user, a query, and a document determines a probability that the user will find the input document important by smoothing the click-through triplets. The search system then orders documents of the result based on the probability of their importance to the input user.

摘要:
A method and system for determining the relevance of a document to a query based on surrogate content is provided. The relevance system associates queries with documents. The relevance system calculates the relevance of a document to a query based at least in part on the similarity of the associated queries to the query. When multiple queries are associated with a document, the relevance system may provide a weight for each query for calculating a combined relevance score for the associated queries.

An implicit links enhancement system and method for search engines that generates implicit links obtained from mining user access logs to facilitate enhanced local searching of web sites and intranets. Embodiments of the implicit links search enhancement system and method includes extracting implicit links by mining users' access patterns and then using a modified link analysis algorithm to re-rank search results obtained from traditional search engines. More specifically, embodiments of the method include extracting implicit links from a user access log, generating an implicit links graph from the extracted implicit links, and computing page rankings using the implicit links graph. The implicit links are extracted from the log using a two-item sequential pattern mining technique. Search results obtained from a search engine are re-ranked based on an implicit links analysis performed using an updated implicit links graph, a modified re-ranking formula, and at least one re-ranking technique.

摘要:
A method and system for measuring the similarity of objects based on relationships with objects of the same type and different types and similarities of those objects to other objects is provided. In one embodiment, the similarity system defines intra-type and inter-type similarity functions for each type of object. The similarity system may combine the intra-type and inter-type similarity functions for a certain type into an overall similarity function for that type. After defining the similarity functions, the similarity system collects attribute values for the objects, which may include relationship data between objects of the same type, referred to as intra-type relationships, and relationships between objects of different types, referred to as inter-type relationships. After collecting the attribute values for the objects, the similarity system solves the intra-type and inter-type similarity functions by iteratively calculating the similarities for the objects until the similarities converge on a solution.
