20100150393 | SENTIMENT CLASSIFICATION USING OUT OF DOMAIN DATA - Providing sentiment classification of out of domain data are disclosed herein. In some aspects, a source domain having a trained classifier is matched to a target domain having a target classifier. The trained classifier may include identifiers that may be used to predict the sentiment of opinion data for the source domain. The target classifier may use the identifiers of the trained classifier to determine the sentiment of opinion data for the target domain. | 06-17-2010 |
20110078157 | OPINION SEARCH ENGINE - A computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to implement an opinion search engine. The instructions to implement an opinion search engine cause the computer to collect opinion data about one or more objects from the Internet, extract metadata about the opinion data from the opinion data, remove duplicate metadata from the metadata to generate a resulting metadata, categorize the resulting metadata for similar objects according to one or more taxonomies from one or more websites on the Internet and rank the similar objects based on the categorized metadata. | 03-31-2011 |
20110078193 | QUERY EXPANSION THROUGH SEARCHING CONTENT IDENTIFIERS - Techniques and technologies for expanding a gallery by seeding the gallery with seed query results. A template is identified which is associated with the subjects of the seed queries and content identifiers are identified which include the template. These content identifiers are used to expand the gallery to include more content identifiers than before the expansion of the gallery. | 03-31-2011 |
20110208715 | AUTOMATICALLY MINING INTENTS OF A GROUP OF QUERIES - The automatic search intent mining technique described herein pertains to a technique for mining search intent from a group of queries. The automatic search intent mining technique described herein automatically mines search intents from a group of queries. The technique leverages knowledge of query log data in order to determine search intent. The automatic search intent mining technique, in one embodiment, utilizes three kinds of information sources: Web page content, Web page structure and search engine query log data to mine intents for a group of queries. In one embodiment of the technique, the three data sources are used separately to mine candidate search intents for each of the three sources. The candidate search intents extracted from each of the three sources are then integrated to form the final search intents. | 08-25-2011 |
20110258229 | Mining Multilingual Topics - Techniques for utilizing data mining technology to extract universal topics with multilingual representations from a multilingual database, and to organize existing or new documents in different languages by analyzing their respective topic distributions. | 10-20-2011 |
20120130967 | CLASSIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONAL QUERIES BASED ON IDENTIFICATION OF FORMS - A method for identifying transactional queries includes associating user queries with forms clicks on by users who employ a search engine to place the queries during query sessions. A score is assigned to each user query. The score reflects a likelihood that the respective query is a transactional query. The query is classified as a transactional query if the score exceeds a threshold value. | 05-24-2012 |
20120136855 | Mobile Query Suggestions With Time-Location Awareness - The techniques describe recommending mobile query suggestions by integrating time and location in response to a query input submitted on a mobile computing device. A process constructs a bipartite graph by extracting users that submitted queries from mobile search logs and associating time and location with the submitted queries. The process determines the users are similar having submitted similar queries at similar times and at similar locations. The process receives a query input associated with a current time and a current location of a mobile computing device. Next, the process computes a relatedness of candidate queries to the query input based on a similarity between the user groups having submitted both the candidate queries and the query input, and distances of times and locations at which the user previously issued the query input and the candidate queries. | 05-31-2012 |
20120151386 | IDENTIFYING ACTIONS IN DOCUMENTS USING OPTIONS IN MENUS - Documents such as web pages may be regarded as offering various actions; e.g., a website for a movie theater may offer options for viewing movie listings and purchasing tickets. A user may wish to view the set of actions available for a particular document, and/or the performance of an action. However, it may be difficult to identify available actions with acceptable accuracy in an automated manner, and the set of documents (such as the entire worldwide web) may be too voluminous for human identification. In order to identify available actions, the document may be searched for menus containing options, and identifying the actions associated with each option according to an option score. Additionally, documents may be grouped into document categories (e.g., websites for movie theaters and websites for musicians) to facilitate the association options in similar documents with similar sets of actions that are often provided for such documents. | 06-14-2012 |
20120278162 | CONDUCTING AN AUCTION OF SERVICES RESPONSIVE TO POSITIONAL SELECTION - Various technologies pertaining to provision of graphical data to a client computing device responsive to receipt of a positional selection on a web page by a user of a client computing device are described herein. A computer-executable application executing on the client computing device detects that the user has selected a certain position on the web page, wherein this application is not called by code of the web page. The position is transmitted to an ad server, which conducts an auction for display space on the client computing device based at least in part upon the detection of the certain position. | 11-01-2012 |
20120323948 | DIALOG-ENHANCED CONTEXTUAL SEARCH QUERY ANALYSIS - Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems, methods, and computer-storage media for a method of contextually analyzing terms within a search query. In one embodiment, a received search query is classified into a domain category. Additionally, information is assigned to a schema associated with the domain by analyzing the search query. Further, at least one search result that helps a user complete a task within the domain is provided based on the information in the schema. | 12-20-2012 |
20130226935 | Context-based Search Query Formation - Searching is assisted by recognizing a selection of text from a document as an indication that a user wishes to initiate a search based on the selected text. The user is provided with query suggestions based on the selected text and the query suggestions are ranked based on a context provided by the document. The user may select the text by using a mouse, drawing a circle around the text on a touch screen, or by other input techniques. The query suggestions may be based on query reformulation or query expansion techniques applied to the selected text. Context provided by the document is used by a language model and/or an artificial intelligence system to rank the query suggestions in predicted order of relevance based on the selected text and the context. | 08-29-2013 |
20140101081 | SENTIMENT CLASSIFICATION USING OUT OF DOMAIN DATA - Providing sentiment classification of out of domain data are disclosed herein. In some aspects, a source domain having a trained classifier is matched to a target domain having a target classifier. The trained classifier may include identifiers that may be used to predict the sentiment of opinion data for the source domain. The target classifier may use the identifiers of the trained classifier to determine the sentiment of opinion data for the target domain. | 04-10-2014 |
20140223381 | INVISIBLE CONTROL - An invisible control may be implemented in a client device or in an application of the client device. A user may activate the invisible control by applying a gesture on a predetermined region of the client device or the application. In response to receiving the user gesture, a predetermined action associated with the invisible control may be activated. The predetermined action may be applied to the application or some or all of the content associated with the application. An Application Programming Interface may further be provided to allow the user, an application vendor or a content provider to customize the invisible control or operating modes associated with activation of the invisible control. | 08-07-2014 |
