Personalized web search using context enhanced query

Published:18 June 2009Publication History

ABSTRACT

This work presents personalized web search using enhancing information extracted from context. Context reflects user profile, her interests, past searching experiences etc. It is represented by a set of weighted keywords. In our approach, we have to deal with keywords profile modeling and searching which respects users profile. Experiments on web search show that our search system can improve relevancy over popular search engines.
