  • QUERY-DEPENDENT AND CONTENT-CLASS BASED RANKING
    Publication number: 20180157760
    Abstract: Techniques for performing query-dependent and content-class (e.g., with product class as a subset, in which content class can be based on a product class in an example implementation) based ranking are disclosed in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, a process for performing query-dependent and content-class based ranking includes receiving a query for a search for content on a web site; performing a query-dependent and content-class based ranking of content available on the web site (e.g., using a processor); and returning a ranked list of content based at least in part on the query-dependent and content-class based ranking of content available on the web site in response to the query.

  • Providing remedial search operation based on analysis of user interaction with search results
    Patent number: 9922122
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for assisting users in performing searches. In one aspect, a query for a search session is received from a user device. A first set of search results responsive to the query is provided to the user device. Search results interaction data are received from the user device that identifies actions that are in response to the search results and taken at the user device. The search results interaction data are analyzed to determine that a remedial search operation should be performed, the remedial search operation determining a second set of search results responsive to the query and providing the second set of search results to the user device for presentation to the user.

  • Search Ranking
    Publication number: 20180060936
    Abstract: A system for ranking search results can be utilized to make a search engine more effective in finding relevant search results. In embodiments, an e-commerce search engine can identify one or more generic identifiers and one or more nonessential search terms in a search query.

  • ANNOTATION FRAMEWORK FOR VIDEO
    Publication number: 20180052812
    Abstract: A system and method for transferring annotations associated with a media file. An annotation associated with a media file is indexed to a first instance of that media file. By comparing features of the two instances, a mapping is created between the first instance of the media file and a second instance of the media file. The annotation can be indexed to the second instance using the mapping between the first and second instances. The annotation can be processed (displayed, stored, or modified) based on the index to the second instance.

  • Synonym Generation
    Publication number: 20160350395
    Abstract: A system for synonym generation and/or identification can be utilized to make a search engine more effective in finding relevant search results. In embodiments, a synonym generation system includes a phrase vector module, a vector similarity module, and a vector filter module. Candidate synonym phrase pairs are selected from data sources for analysis. Data sources may include a log of search queries, a corpus of web text, and a set of merchant descriptions of products. The data sources may be analyzed with respect to the phrase pairs to generate vector representations of the phrase pairs. The vector representations may then be analyzed to determine a similarity vector. The similarity vector allows the synonym generation system to filter synonyms from the candidate phrase pairs.
