An aggregate ranking model is generated, which comprises a general ranking model and one or more topical training models. Each topical ranking model is associated with a topic, or topic class, and for use in ranking search result items determined to belong to the topic, or topic class. As one example, the topical ranking model is trained using a set of topical training data, e.g., training data determined to belong to the topic, or topic class, a general ranking model and a residue, or error, determined from a general ranking generated by the general ranking model for the topical training data, with the topical ranking model being trained to minimize the general ranking model's error in the aggregate ranking model.
