Programming Collective Intelligence: Searching and Ranking 2007-08-01 O'Reilly Media

This paper covers full-text search engines, which allow people to search a large set of documents for a list of words, and which rank results according to how relevant the documents are to those words. Algorithms for full-text searches are among the most important collective intelligence algorithms, and many fortunes have been made by new ideas in this field. It is widely believed that Google's rapid rise from an academic project to the world's most popular search engine was based largely on the PageRank algorithm, a variation that the user will learn about in this paper.

The Influence of Caption Features on Clickthrough Patterns in Web Search 2007-05-07 Association for Computing Machinery

Web search engines present lists of captions, comprising title, snippet, and URL, to help users decide which search results to visit. Understanding the influence of features of these captions on Web search behavior may help validate algorithms and guidelines for their improved generation. In this paper the authors develop a methodology to use clickthrough logs from a commercial search engine to study user behavior when interacting with search result captions. The findings of the study suggest that relatively simple caption features such as the presence of all terms query terms, the readability of the snippet, and the length of the URL shown in the caption, can significantly influence users' Web search behavior.
