Abstract

Traditional query suggestion methods mainly leverage click-through information to find related queries as recommendations, without considering the semantic relateness between queries. In addition, few studies use click-through distribution in diversifying query suggestions. To address these issues, we propose a novel and effective framework to generate relevant and diversified query suggestions. We combine query semantics and click-through information together to generate query suggestion candidates which are highly relevant to original query , we use click-through distribution to diversify the candidates. We evaluate our method on a large-scale search log dataset of a commercial engine, experimental results indicate that our framework has significantly improved the relevance and diversity of suggested queries by comparing to four baseline methods.
