ABSTRACT
This study proposes a system, which shows funny term pairs when searchers issue a query into Web search engines. The proposed system analyzes the following two factors for a term pair in a given query: the unexpectedness and the semantic conflict. The experimental result showed that the proposed method provided a larger number of funny term pairs for queries than the baseline methods. Although the proposed method was not the best based on the average value, it can still offer opportunities for searchers to laugh and feel cheery when issuing queries into the Web search engines.

Recommendations
Query recommendation as query generation
FDIA '15: Proceedings of the 6th Symposium on Future Directions in Information AccessResearchers have studied query recommendation to address various aspects of the user search experience. Several contributions in this area use search logs to recommend existing queries from the log, using querybased similarity metrics or log-based ...
Traversing semantically annotated queries for task-oriented query recommendation
RecSys '19: Proceedings of the 13th ACM Conference on Recommender SystemsAs search systems gradually turn into intelligent personal assistants, users increasingly resort to a search engine to accomplish a complex task, such as planning a trip, renting an apartment, or investing in stocks. A key challenge for the search ...
Improving Web search through collaborative query recommendation
ECAI'04: Proceedings of the 16th European Conference on Artificial IntelligenceSearch engines are the primary means by which people locate information on the Web. Unfortunately most Web users are not information retrieval experts and there is a tendency for Web queries to be ambiguous and under-specified. Query expansion and ...
