The method receives a query location which includes a plurality of channels for performing the query evaluation. Responsive to extracting one or more ranking factors from the specific post selection, the method performs the query evaluation at the query location to collect a plurality of potential matching posts based on the one or more ranking factors. The method reorders the plurality of potential matches according to a plurality of determined scores for the plurality of potential matches. The method displays two-dimensional search results based on a timeline and channel relevancy, where the plurality of channels is ordered according to channel relevancy compared to the first channel.

Abstract: A contact includes a base portion, a cold-weld portion extending upward from the base portion and having a cold-weld slot into which an electric wire is configured to be cold-welded, a trailing portion extending downward by being folded back downward from an upper end of the cold-weld portion, and a contact portion extending from a lower end of the trailing portion. The trailing portion has a press-fitted portion below the cold-weld slot that is press-fitted into the housing. The contact portion makes contact with a mating contact by receiving the mating contact in a space between the contact portion and the base portion.

Abstract: A first user request which specifies a target document set wherein a first subset of the documents is flagged by a user. A primary flag table is created for the target document set. A first document subset is created matching the first user request. It is determined whether a number of flagged documents exceeds a first threshold. If so, a secondary flag table is created for the first document subset and flag data corresponding to the first document subset is stored in the secondary flag table. The flag data in the secondary flag table is merged into the primary flag table.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an index generating method and index generating apparatus capable of accurately and stably generating an index for measuring a width of a subject, and a measuring method capable of accurately and stably measuring a width of a subject. An index generating method according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: an image input step of inputting an image obtained by imaging a linear subject; a density distribution acquiring step of acquiring, from the input image, a plurality of density distributions along a direction orthogonal to a width direction of the linear subject, which are density distributions in the width direction of the linear subject; a function calculating step of calculating a probability distribution function corresponding to the acquired plurality of density distributions; and an index generating step of generating an index indicating a width of the subject based on the calculated probability distribution function.

Abstract: A system, computer program product, and method are provided to selectively index one or more subsets of documents or files. As data is extracted from a document or file, extracted text is organized into data portions and subject to evaluations. Meta characteristic data is leveraged to assess the extracted text. One or more subsets of the organized data portions are selectively identified and subject to enrichment processing, which creates and returns enriched and indexed subsets of the documents or files.

Abstract: Facet-based query refinement based on multiple query interpretations is provider through a process that includes receiving a query for querying documents, of a whole document set, that deviate by one or more facet values. The process generates different query interpretations from query text of the query. The process executes the different query interpretations to obtain resulting document sets. For each different query interpretation, the executing executes the query interpretation to obtain a resulting document set corresponding to that query interpretation, and identifies facet values represented in the resulting document set. The process builds and presents to a user a query refinement interface, presenting the different query interpretations and properties of the resulting document sets, as well as, for each of the one or more facet values, and relative to each other, facet value representation of the facet value in each of the resulting document sets.

Abstract: Natural Language Processing (NLP) is performed on a corpus using a processor and a memory to extract a set of facets corresponding to a dimension in a set of dimensions. Using a score threshold, a subset of the set of facets is selected where each facet in the set of facets has a corresponding score relative to the corpus. A subsequent query is formed by increasing a complexity of a previous query using a facet in the subset of facets. The subsequent query is executed on at least a portion of the corpus. The documents in a new result set are ranked, the new result set being in response to executing the subsequent query. An output is produced from the new result set, which includes a ranking of that subset of documents whose ranks have changed by more than a threshold rank distance from the corresponding ranks in the corpus.

Abstract: A set of keywords is extracted from a query. Natural Language Processing (NLP) is performed on the query to extract a set of contextual words for a keyword from the query. For the query, a first score of a first vector is computed, where the first vector represents a first contextual word. For a first result in a result set, a first result score of a first result vector is computed, where the first vector represents a first result contextual word in a set of result contextual words corresponding to the keyword in the first result. Using the first score and the first result score, a first similarity value is computed for the first result. The first result is re-ranked relative to a second result according to the first similarity value for the first result and a second similarity value for the second result in the result set.
