Context Based Search Query Formation
Abstract: Searching is assisted by recognizing a selection of text from a document as an indication that a user wishes to initiate a search based on the selected text. The user is provided with query suggestions based on the selected text and the query suggestions are ranked based on a context provided by the document. The user may select the text by using a mouse drawing a circle around the text on a touch screen or by other input techniques. The query suggestions may be based on query reformulation or query expansion techniques applied to the selected text. Context provided by the document is used by a language model and/or an artificial intelligence system to rank the query suggestions in predicted order of relevance based on the selected text and the context.
