Abstract

Graphical user interfaces, methods, and computer-storage media for navigating dominant concepts are provided. The method is executed by a computer system that generates a graphical user interface having dominant concepts associated with a contextual query. The contextual query is issued to a search engine that searches multiple sources to locate results. The computer system extracts the dominant concepts from the results. In turn, a graph is added to the graphical user interface to group the dominant concepts. The graph links the contextual query and the dominant concepts and provides controls that dynamically alter dominant concepts displayed by the graphical user interface. The graphical user interface and the dominant concepts displayed are updated based on control manipulations.

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is related to Patent Application No. 12 / 700,980, filed February 5, 2010 (Attorney Docket No. 328616.01 / MFCP.153202), entitled "Generating and Presenting Lateral Concepts"; Patent Application No. 12 / 795,238 (Attorney Docket No. 329670.01 / MFCP.154856), filed June 7, 2009, entitled "Identifying Dominant Concepts Across Multiple Sources." These documents are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to techniques for navigating dominant concepts extracted from multiple sources. Background technique [0004] Conventional search engines receive queries from users and locate web pages that have terms that match terms included in the received queries. By convention, search engines ignore the context and meaning of a user query and treat the query as a set of words. The terms included in the query are searched based on frequency, and the search engine returns r...
