Abstract:
A system described herein includes a receiver component that receives a dataset that is stored in a computer-readable medium of a computing device, wherein the dataset includes a plurality of queries issued by users to a search engine and a plurality of search results selected by the users upon issuing the plurality of queries. A distribution determiner component determines click distributions over the search results selected by the users with respect to the plurality of queries. A labeler component labels at least two queries in the plurality of queries as being substantially similar to one another based at least in part upon the click distributions over the search results selected by the users with respect to the plurality of queries.
