Abstract: A description of an abstraction of items may be received as an input from a device operated by a user. The abstraction of the items may represent a group of items. Item descriptors may be accessed from a database based on the description of the abstraction of the group of items. Moreover, the item descriptors may describe the items included in the abstraction of the items. After being accessed from the database, the item descriptors may be used in generating a search query. Lastly, the generated search query may be presented to the device operated by the user.

Abstract translation: 可以从用户操作的设备中接收对项目的抽象的描述作为输入。 项目的抽象可能代表一组项目。 可以基于对该组项目的抽象的描述从数据库访问项目描述符。 此外，项目描述符可以描述项目抽象中包括的项目。 在从数据库访问之后，项目描述符可以用于生成搜索查询。 最后，生成的搜索查询可以被呈现给用户操作的设备。

Abstract: A system and method of providing autocomplete features using social activity signals. In some embodiments, social activity signals associated with a user are received. User-entered text is received from the user in a search field for a search engine. Predicted queries are determined based on the user-entered text and the social activity signals. Each one of the predicted queries comprises predicted text and at least a portion of the user-entered text. The predicted text is absent from the user-entered text. The predicted queries are caused to be displayed in an autocomplete user interface element of the search field. In some embodiments, the social activity signals comprise at least one of a like of content, a share of content, a follow of content, and a comment on content.
