New query suggestion framework and algorithms: A case study for an educational search engine

作者:

Highlights:

• Query suggestion (QS) problem is reduced to “comparison of queries” problem.

• A modular and practical framework is suggested for development of QS algorithms.

• Breadth First Search graph traversal method is better for query-log traversing.

• Combining QS algorithms improves the performance.

• Suggested new QS algorithms achieved 66–90% performance increase.
