Conventional methods for query autocompletion aim to predict which completed query a user will select from a list. A shortcoming of this approach is that users often do not know which query will provide the best retrieval performance on the…

We present a context-aware neural ranking model to exploit users' on-task search activities and enhance retrieval performance. In particular, a two-level hierarchical recurrent neural network is introduced to learn search context…

Many geoportals such as ArcGIS Online are established with the goal of improving geospatial data reusability and achieving intelligent knowledge discovery. However, according to previous research, most of the existing geoportals adopt…

In this paper, we describe the migration of a homebrewed C++ search engine to OpenSearch, aimed at preserving and improving search performance with minimal impact on business metrics. To facilitate the migration, we froze our job corpus and…

The article presents an online relevancy tuning method using explicit user feedback. The author developed and tested a method of words' weights modification based on search result evaluation by user. User decides whether the result is…

Model evolution and constant availability of data are two common phenomena in large-scale real-world machine learning applications, e.g. ads and recommendation systems. To adapt, the real-world system typically retrain with all available…

Modern data centers suffer from immense power consumption. As a result, data center operators have heavily invested in capacity scaling solutions, which dynamically deactivate servers if the demand is low and activate them again when the…

Academic search engines allow scientists to explore related work relevant to a given query. Often, the user is also aware of the "aspect" to retrieve a relevant document. In such cases, existing search engines can be used by expanding the…

Modern recommender systems excel at optimizing search result relevance for e-commerce platforms. While maintaining this relevance, platforms seek opportunities to maximize revenue through search result adjustments. To address the trade-off…

Nowadays e-commerce search has become an integral part of many people's shopping routines. One critical challenge in today's e-commerce search is the semantic matching problem where the relevant items may not contain the exact terms in the…

With the rapid development of modern technology, the Web has become an important platform for users to make friends and acquire information. However, since information on the Web is over-abundant, information filtering becomes a key task…

We present in this paper a novel approach for as-you-type top-$k$ keyword search over social media. We adopt a natural "network-aware" interpretation for information relevance, by which information produced by users who are closer to the…

The goal of a technology-assisted review is to achieve high recall with low human effort. Continuous active learning algorithms have demonstrated good performance in locating the majority of relevant documents in a collection, however their…

As the complexity of modern workloads and hardware increasingly outpaces human research and engineering capacity, existing methods for database performance optimization struggle to keep pace. To address this gap, a new class of techniques,…

In ecommerce search, query autocomplete plays a critical role to help users in their shopping journey. Often times, query autocomplete presents users with semantically similar queries, which can impede the user's ability to find diverse and…

Conversational Query Reformulation (CQR) has significantly advanced in addressing the challenges of conversational search, particularly those stemming from the latent user intent and the need for historical context. Recent works aimed to…

We study how standard auction objectives in sponsored search markets change with refinements in the prediction of the relevance (click-through rates) of ads. We study mechanisms that optimize for a convex combination of efficiency and…

User-generated reviews serve as crucial references in shopper's decision-making process. Moreover, they improve product sales and validate the reputation of the website as a whole. Thus, it becomes important to design reviews ranking…

This paper is interested in investigating whether human gaze signals can be leveraged to improve state-of-the-art search engine performance and how to incorporate this new input signal marked by human attention into existing neural…

Click-through rate (CTR) prediction serves as a cornerstone of recommender systems. Despite the strong performance of current CTR models based on user behavior modeling, they are still severely limited by interaction sparsity, especially in…
