Methods and systems are provided for ranking search results and generating a presentation. In some implementations, a search system generates a presentation based on a search query. In some implementations, a search system ranks search results based on data stored in a knowledge graph. In some implementations, a search system identifies a modifying concept such as a superlative in a received search query, and determines ranking properties based on the modifying concept.

Search result ranking and presentation

A technique for providing search results may include determining a first entity type, a second entity type, and a relationship type based on a compositional query. The technique may also include identifying nodes of a knowledge graph corresponding to entity references of the first entity type and entity references of the second entity type. The technique may also include determining from the knowledge graph an attribute value corresponding to the relationship type for each entity reference of the first entity type and for each entity reference of the second entity type. The technique may also include comparing the attribute value of each entity reference of the first entity type with the attribute value of each entity reference of the second entity type. The technique may also include determining one or more resultant entity references from the entity references of the first entity type based on the comparing.

Providing search results based on a compositional query

Methods and systems are provided for providing search results while maintaining search context. A search system may display a plurality of links related to a received search query, wherein the links are all of the same entity type. The system may display sets of search results related to the plurality of links, while continuing to display the plurality of links.

Maintaining search context

One embodiment provides a system for building store product finders. The system may include: a product search engine to find products matching at least one product subcategory of product subcategories of a store product category for a store product finder, and a dominant product subcategory determining device to determine a dominant product subcategory. Each product subcategory has a product coverage. The dominant product subcategory has a highest product coverage among the product subcategories. The system may also include a filter installing device to install at least one product search filter into the store product finder.

Method and system of building store product finders

Systems and methods are disclosed to automatically publish data items associated with a news event. In one embodiment, a method comprises determining, using one or more processors, an event of a plurality of events as associated with a heightened user interest, identifying one or more listings from a plurality of listings as matching the event associated with the heightened user interest, and presenting a visual representation of a relationship between the event and the one or more listings such that the one or more listings are displayed as visually related to the event.
