| 20080270376 | WEB SPAM PAGE CLASSIFICATION USING QUERY-DEPENDENT DATA - A web spam page classifier is described that identifies web spam pages based on features of a search query and web page pair. The features can be extracted from training instances and a training algorithm can be employed to develop the classifier. Pages identified as web spam pages can be demoted and/or removed from a relevancy ranked list. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20080313147 | Multi-level search - A computer-implementable method and system for performing a multi-level search. The method includes performing a primary search that involves executing a query submitted by a user, and returning primary search results (a list of documents, for example). The method further includes automatically performing a secondary search. The secondary search involves identifying at least one third-party source of information based on the query, and automatically assessing a semantic interpretation of the query. The secondary search utilizes the identified at least one third-party source of information and the semantic interpretation of the query to derive secondary search results, which are displayed along with the primary search results. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20100153315 | BOOSTING ALGORITHM FOR RANKING MODEL ADAPTATION - Model adaptation may be performed to take a general model trained with a set of training data (possibly large), and adapt the model using a set of domain-specific training data (possibly small). The parameters, structure, or configuration of a model trained in one domain (called the background domain) may be adapted to a different domain (called the adaptation domain), for which there may be a limited amount of training data. The adaption may be performed using the Boosting Algorithm to select an optimal basis function that optimizes a measure of error of the model as it is being iteratively refined, i.e., adapted. | 06-17-2010 |

| 20100318540 | IDENTIFICATION OF SAMPLE DATA ITEMS FOR RE-JUDGING - Described is a technology for identifying sample data items (e.g., documents corresponding to query-URL pairs) having the greatest likelihood of being mislabeled when previously judged, and selecting those data items for re-judging. In one aspect, lambda gradient scores (information associated with ranked sample data items that indicates a relative direction and how “strongly” to move each data item for lowering a ranking cost) are summed for pairs of sample data items to compute re-judgment scores for each of those sample data items. The re-judgment scores indicate a relative likelihood of mislabeling. Once the selected sample data items are re-judged, a new training set is available, whereby a new ranker may be trained. | 12-16-2010 |

| 20100332498 | PRESENTING MULTIPLE DOCUMENT SUMMARIZATION WITH SEARCH RESULTS - Methods and computer-readable media are provided for summarizing the content of a plurality of documents and presenting the results of such multiple-document summarization to a user in such a way that the user is able to quickly and easily discern what, if any, unique information each document contains. Each sentence of each document is assigned a score based upon the perceived importance of the information contained therein. The sentences receiving the highest scores are then compared with one another to identify and remove any duplicate sentences. The remaining high-scoring sentences are extracted from the corresponding documents and presented to the user, for instance, in a bulleted list format. The user can then simply scan the list and can quickly and easily discern the unique information contained in each document. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110040752 | USING CATEGORICAL METADATA TO RANK SEARCH RESULTS - A system that facilitates ranking search results returned by a search engine in response to receipt of a query is described herein. The system includes a receiver component that receives categorical metadata pertaining to an item and categorical metadata pertaining to the query and a computation component that computes at least one of a document feature pertaining to the item, a query feature pertaining to the query, or a document-query feature pertaining to the item and the query based at least in part upon one or more of the categorical metadata pertaining to the item or the categorical metadata pertaining to the query. The system also includes a ranker component that selectively places the item in a particular location in a sequence of items based at least in part upon the at least one of the document feature, the query feature, or the document-query feature. | 02-17-2011 |
