System and method for query re-issue in search engines

摘要

A system embodiment receives a query from the user. The query is processed by a search infrastructure which may return a set of results. Results may then be estimated for quality by a quality estimator. The quality estimator may determine an initial quality estimation of the search result(s). A query re-issuer generates re-issued query information based on the initial quality estimation of the search result(s) for the initial query. A query modifier then receives the re-issued query information and generates a modified re-issued query in accordance with the query re-issue information. A method embodiment modifies and re-issues a query to the search infrastructure. The method includes determining an initial quality estimation of the search result, generating re-issued query information based on at least an initial quality estimation of the search result for the initial query, receiving the re-issued query information and generating a modified re-issued query.

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
determining, by a query reissuer that includes one or more processors, a first estimate of quality of a first set of search results that a search engine identifies as responsive to a user search query received from a user device; classifying, by the query reissuer, the first set of search results that the search engine identifies as responsive to the user search query as unacceptable based at least on the first estimate of quality of the first set of search results; and in response to classifying the first set of search results that the search engine identifies as responsive to the user search query as unacceptable based at least on the first estimate of quality of the first set of search results, transmitting, by the query reissuer, an instruction to a query reviser to generate a modified search query for submission to the search engine.
