50 results about "Ranking (information retrieval)" patented technology

Ranking of query is one of the fundamental problems in information retrieval (IR), the scientific/engineering discipline behind search engines. Given a query q and a collection D of documents that match the query, the problem is to rank, that is, sort, the documents in D according to some criterion so that the "best" results appear early in the result list displayed to the user. Ranking in terms of information retrieval is an important concept in computer science and is used in many different applications such as search engine queries and recommender systems. A majority of search engines use ranking algorithms to provide users with accurate and relevant results.

Relevancy ranking information retrieval system and method of using the same

Disclosed herein is a system and method of using the same for a relevancy ranking information retrieval system. In an embodiment, the system is configured for ranking hits in text string searching. A search query for one or more hits relevant to an investigation is received from, as an example and not a limitation, a user. A set of attributes and features of each attribute are extracted related to metadata for each of the one or more hits. A score of each attribute is calculated based on the metadata features, although not limited to ‘metadata’ information as typically defined in digital forensics. Further, weights are assigned to each of the one or more attribute features and a relevancy rank is generated for each of the one or more hits based on assigned weights and the attribute score by using a predefined relevancy-ranking algorithm that may be adjusted by user input.
