  • Patent number: 12197524
    Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to providing multi-level rich autosuggestions for multi-intent search queries. The system receives a query prefix entered in a search box and accesses a database of machine-learning derived intent clusters. Based on the query prefix, a top-ranking machine-learning derived intent cluster is identified, and the search user interface is updated to provide a plurality of first level autosuggestions in an autosuggestion box including a smart suggestion. The smart suggestion is a first level suggestion of the top-ranking machine-learning derived intent cluster. The system receives a selection of the smart suggestion and, in response, replaces the plurality of first level autosuggestions in the autosuggestion box with second level autosuggestions. The second level autosuggestions comprise one or more intent categories that are subsets of the smart suggestion, whereby each intent category comprises a plurality of subcategory suggestions.

  • Publication number: 20240403377
    Abstract: Methods, computer systems, computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for providing an interactive search exploration tool. In embodiments, an interactive search exploration tool is presented via a graphical user interface. The tool may include a primary topic, indicating the search query, that is positioned at a center of the interactive search exploration tool. The tool may also include distance indicators indicating extents of relatedness to the primary topic. The distance indicators can be represented as concentric shapes positioned around the primary topic at varying distances. The tool can also include a related topic(s) positioned around the primary topic. The related topic is positioned in proximity to a distance indicator that corresponds with an extent of relatedness of the related topic to the primary topic. Thereafter, in response to a selection of the related topic, a topic content snippet that provides a representation of the related topic is presented.

  • Publication number: 20240338410
    Abstract: A method for multi-intent searching includes surfacing, via a web browser provided through a network, a search engine UI in a first browser tab, where the search engine UI includes a search box for specifying a search query. The method includes, responsive to user input, entering keystrokes into the search box, surfacing an autocomplete menu adjacent to the search box, and populating the autocomplete menu with suggested search queries related to the entered keystrokes. The method also includes surfacing a pop-out icon corresponding to each suggested search query within the autocomplete menu and, responsive to additional user input including a selection of the pop-out icon corresponding to one of the suggested search queries, launching a second browser tab including search results for the suggested search query, where the autocomplete menu with the suggested search queries is maintained within the first browser tab after the launching of the second browser tab.
