OPTIMIZING FACETED CLASSIFICATION

摘要

In an approach to faceted classification, a computer receives a search query. The computer creates a first table of facet value ranges, based on the search query. The computer fetches a first search result corresponding to the search query. The computer retrieves a first facet value associated with the first search result. The computer maps the first facet value to a first facet value range. The computer determines whether the first facet value range is in the first table of facet value ranges. The computer inserts the first facet value range into the first table of facet value ranges. The computer determines whether a number of facet value ranges in the first table of facet value ranges is below a pre-defined threshold. The computer creates a second table of facet value ranges. The computer identifies a second facet value range that includes the first facet value range.
