Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that return query completions are provided. A user of a computing device like a mobile phone may enter a prefix. In turn, the prefix and location information associated with the device are transmitted to a server device. The server device receives the prefix and location information. The prefix and the location information are matched with names and locations of entities stored in a database connected to the server device. The server device transmits query completion data to the mobile device. The query completion data includes one or more names that complete the received prefix. The names provided by the server device may be associated with entities that are within a threshold radius of the location information.

Abstract: Methods and computer-storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that facilitate determining enhanced query suggestions are provided. A plurality of query suggestions responsive to a user query are received. Items of data corresponding to the query suggestions are received. Based on the received query suggestions and the received items of data, enhanced query suggestions are determined. In embodiments, an enhanced query suggestion includes one or more items of data related to a respective query suggestion. A user may select at least a portion of an enhanced query suggestion. In embodiments, selection of a portion of an enhanced query suggestion provides additional information.

Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-readable storage media for dynamically correcting misspelled search queries are provided. A portion of a search query is received, and a data store is accessed. It is determined that the portion of the search query is absent from the data store and, thus, comprises a misspelled portion of a search query. Correctly spelled portions of search queries are dynamically determined for the misspelled portion of the search query using a trie data structure, and the misspelled portion of the search query is associated with the correctly spelled portions of search queries. Search suggestions are determined for the correctly spelled portions of search queries and are ranked based on a frequency of use and on a transformation cost of associating the misspelled portion of the search query with the correctly spelled portion of search queries. The ranked search suggestions are provided to a user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media are provided for generating one or more spelling candidates. A query log is received, which contains one or more user-input queries. The user-input queries are divided into one or more common context groups. Each term of the user-input queries is ranked within a common context group according to a frequency of occurrence to form a ranked list for each of the one or more common context groups. A chain algorithm is implemented to the respective ranked lists to identify a base word and a set of one or more subordinate words paired with the base word. The base word and all sets of the subordinate words from all of the respective ranked lists are aggregated to form one or more chains of spelling candidates for the base word.
