A system and related techniques accepts user search or query terms over of the Internet or other network or connection. In addition to presenting regularly generated search results, according to embodiments of the invention the search engine and related logic may examine the search string for suggested refinements or improvements to the search terms, to attempt to derive improved results or results closer to the user's search intent. According to embodiments of the invention in one regard, the alternative search logic may attempt to extract related or more meaningful search terms from sources including past usage patterns by users, and other data. That alternative search logic may thus examine the user's search terms to determine a substring match to prior searches, for instance stored by the search host for all users. In embodiments, the alternative search logic may likewise present user search extensions or refinement paths selected by prior users running the same search, as an indicator of likely content or source relevance. In further embodiments, the alternative search logic may perform a reverse query lookup to trace queries which resulted in the same Web site or other hit, as the present search and present those other queries as possible alternatives for the user to pursue. These and other search refinements may be performed, taking advantage of usage patterns and other information to improve search quality beyond straightforward spelling-type correction.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a search query from a first user and identifying one or more second nodes that match the search query. The method includes determining one or more search intents of the search query. Search intent may be based on one or more topics associated with the identified nodes and one or more node-types of the identified nodes. The method includes generating one or more search results corresponding to the search query, the search-results being generated based on the determined search intents. The method includes sending a search-results page to the client system of the first user for display. The search-results page may include one or more of the generated search results.

A system and related techniques generate alternative search terms derived from a set of search results. A user may input a set of search terms such as keywords or other inputs, and receive a set of search results back, for instance in rank order of estimated relevance to the user's search terms and search intention. In addition to the hyperlink or other results may have associated with them a set of selectable alternative search links, for instance indicating “show me more with titles like this” when for instance a Web page title contains the user's search terms. Other results may present other attributes, depending on the evaluated distinctiveness potential alternative information content of attributes of that Web page or other result, which attributes may further include, for example, the presence of image files, PDF™ files, audio or video files or attachments, Web pages or other hits indicating certain date ranges, or other attributes or characteristics. In embodiments an attribute or attribute of a result may be assessed for inclusion as an alternative search attributes or limiter based on the attribute's deviation in an attribute space from an average of the attributes of the original set of search results, or otherwise. A user may click or otherwise select the alternative search suggestion, for instance indicating “show me more PDFs” and be presented with an updated set of search results containing Web pages or other hits, links or results each of which is, contains or has attached a file or content of that type. Users may thus receive categories of search results more closely aligned with their search intent when characteristic attributes may be a factor in desired content.

Methods and systems for recommending a service based on an electronic social media trust model. A user trust network and a service trust network can be constructed and the two separate trust networks can be combined to form a combined trust network. The combined trust network includes an explicit trust and an implicit trust in order to improve the recommendation coverage and consider a latent service rating without suffering noisy data. A trust-oriented random walk model can be conducted on a user node with respect to the combined trust network based on a user search intent and navigation behavior in order to select and recommend a service candidate. A service rating can then be predicted by considering the user ratings with respect to a target service, a propagated trust and an inferred service rating.

The invention provides a voice search method, a voice search device and a voice search system. The voice search method comprises the following steps: receiving a voice search request from a user; performing intent resolution on the voice search request so as to acquire the search intent of the user; acquiring a search result according to the search intent of the user; generating a voice dialogue result of the voice search request according to the search result and the search intent of the user and supplying the voice dialogue result to the user.

A restaurant service system includes a restaurant server adapted to communicate with diner communication devices and restaurant communication devices. The restaurant server builds a food taxonomy including dishes, dish attributes and dish ingredients. The dishes are mapped from menu items. The server also trains dish classifiers and applies the dish classifiers to map menu items to dishes. Dish attributes are derived from search logs and dish ingredients are extracted from menu item descriptions. The server determines the search intent of a diner based on her search terms. Food search is conducted based on the taxonomy and the search intent with consideration of restaurant similarity and dish popularity. The server also provides dish recommendations based on taste similarity between diners.

Computer-storage media, methods, and systems for improving the ability of a user to accomplish a task that is pending during a search session are provided. This pending task can be distilled by identifying a current searching intent associated with a recently submitted query and by determining which candidate tasks are most comparable to the current searching intent of a user. The candidate tasks are mined from a search history of the user by categorizing those navigation events that appear to share a semantically common concept. Upon performing a comparison, the candidate task that captures the user's true current searching intent is designated as the pending task. When a user invokes the pending task, a collection of elements that are associated with the pending task are dynamically organized into a sharable content page, thereby providing a collaborative experience that involves exposing the collection to contacts and accepting feedback therefrom.

A permissive search intent registry allowing intending purchasers to receive special offers and incentives from participating merchants wherein merchants may thereby more effectively target advertising campaigns by gaining access to a pool of intending purchasers, allowing merchants to differentiate between intending purchasers and mere “click-thrus”. An intending purchaser may tag a search, product, or category of products as being related to a purchase intention and thereby automatically be linked to participating merchants via the present invention. Intending purchasers are rewarded for the disclosure regarding their purchase intent and their estimated purchase timeline by receiving special offers, rewards, and/or incentives from the participating merchants that are not readily available to the general public. In this manner, both the purchasers and the merchants receive a benefit through their automatic relationship via the present invention; purchasers receive rewards towards the desired goods or services and merchants may directly market to intending purchasers.
