  • Method and apparatus for providing contextual based searches
    Patent number: 9721003
    Abstract: An approach is presented for providing contextual based searches. A contextual query platform processes at least one query to parse one or more terms associated with at least one contextual parameter. The platform further determines one or more values and/or one or more probabilities associated with the one or more values for the at least one contextual parameter based on one or more probabilistic models associated with the at least one contextual parameter. The platform further compares the one or more values and/or the one or more probabilities against at least one threshold criteria. The platform further determines whether to process the at least one query using the one or more values, to generate a recommendation for using the one or more values, to determine one or more alternate values, or a combination thereof based, at least in part, on the comparison.
