Abstract
In this work, a hierarchical query clustering algorithm is designed and evaluated for the collaborative querying environment. The evaluation focuses on domain specific queries to better understand whether the algorithm meets the needs of users. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm works well to cluster queries with good precision.
