Diversity and Novelty on the Web: Search, Recommendation, and Data Streaming Aspects
Santos, Rodrygo L. T.; Castells, Pablo; Altıngövde, İsmail Sengör; CAN, FAZLI (2015-05-22)
This tutorial aims to provide a unifying account of current research on diversity and novelty in different web information systems. In particular, the tutorial will cover the motivations, as well as the most established approaches for producing and evaluating diverse results in search engines, recommender systems, and data streams, all within the context of the World Wide Web. By contrasting the state-of-the-art in these multiple domains, this tutorial aims to derive a common understanding of the diversific...
Segmenting and Labeling Query Sequences in a Multidatabase Environment
Acar, Aybar Can (2011-01-01)
When gathering information from multiple independent data sources, users will generally pose a sequence of queries to each source, combine (union) or cross-reference (join) the results in order to obtain the information they need. Furthermore, when gathering information, there is a fair bit of trial and error involved, where queries are recursively refined according to the results of a previous query in the sequence. From the point of view of an outside observer, the aim of such a sequence of queries may no...
Static query result caching revisited
Ozcan, Rifat; Altıngövde, İsmail Sengör; Ulusoy, Özgür (2008-12-15)
Query result caching is an important mechanism for search engine efficiency. In this study, we first review several query features that are used to determine the contents of a static result cache. Next, we introduce a new feature that more accurately represents the popularity of a query by measuring the stability of query frequency over a set of time intervals. Experimental results show that this new feature achieves hit ratios better than those of the previously proposed features.
Evolution of web search results within years
Altıngövde, İsmail Sengör; Ulusoy, Özgür (2011-01-01)
We provide a first large-scale analysis of the evolution of query results obtained from a real search engine at two distant points in time, namely, in 2007 and 2010, for a set of 630,000 real queries.
Characterizing web search queries that match very few or no results
Altıngövde, İsmail Sengör; Cambazoglu, Berkant Barla; Ozcan, Rifat; Sarigil, Erdem; Ulusoy, Özgür (2012-12-19)
Despite the continuous efforts to improve the web search quality, a non-negligible fraction of user queries end up with very few or even no matching results in leading web search engines. In this work, we provide a detailed characterization of such queries based on an analysis of a real-life query log. Our experimental setup allows us to characterize the queries with few/no results and compare the mechanisms employed by the major search engines in handling them.
