Patent number: 11816114Abstract: The present disclosure includes systems and techniques relating to ranking search results of a search query. In general, the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in a computer-implemented method that includes determining a measure of relevance for a document result within a context of a search query for which the document result is returned, the determining being based on a first number in relation to a second number, the first number corresponding to longer views of the document result, and the second number corresponding to at least shorter views of the document result; and outputting the measure of relevance to a ranking engine for ranking of search results, including the document result, for a new search corresponding to the search query. The subject matter described in this specification can also be embodied in various corresponding computer program products, apparatus and systems.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Hyung-Jin Kim, Simon Tong, Noam M.

Patent number: 9178848Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for identifying affiliated domains. A method includes identifying a plurality of domains, where each domain is associated with a particular hostname and each domain includes one or more resources, identifying a set of one or more linked domains, designating one or more domains within the set of linked domains as being affiliated with the first domain, and storing the domain affiliation information. Linked domains are domains from the plurality of domains that are linked to the first domain, and a second domain is linked to the first domain if one of the first or the second domains includes resources containing navigation links to resources of the other domain.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2007Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: Wenxin Li, Michelangelo Diligenti, Trystan Upstill

Patent number: 9110975Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products for generalizing a user-submitted query by forming one or more variants of the user-submitted query to generate one or more other queries, each of the one or more other queries being different from the user-submitted query. A generalized quality of result statistic is derived for a first document from respective data associated with each of the other queries, each respective data being indicative of user behavior relative to the first document as a search result for the associated other query. The generalized quality of result statistic is provided as the quality of result statistic input to a document ranking process for the first document and the user-submitted query.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2006Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Michelangelo Diligenti, Hyung-Jin Kim, Robert J. Stets, Jr.

Patent number: 8694374Abstract: A computer-implemented method for processing network activities is described. The method includes identifying a model that specifies attributes for network objects, identifying a network object having one or more attributes that deviate from the model, and providing as an input to a ranking algorithm a value associated with the deviance of the one or more attributes of the identified network object.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2007Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Michelangelo Diligenti, Diego Federici

Patent number: 8200694Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for identifying implicitly local queries. A query having one or more terms is received. The query is associated with a user locale. A degree of implicit local relevance for the query is determined. One or more search results for the query is received. Each received search result has a respective score and a respective result locale. The score of a respective search result is modified using the degree of implicit local relevance for the query, the user locale, and the respective result locale of the respective search result.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2010Date of Patent: June 12, 2012Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Michelangelo Diligenti, Wenxin Li, Fabio Lopiano, Trystan G.
