Solutions for automated labeling of child objects within tagged parents include: receiving a plurality of parent objects, each having a tag and including a plurality of child objects; receiving a machine learning (ML) component operable to rank objects according to relevance to queries; for each parent object: generating a set of restricted objects, wherein each restricted object corresponds to each child object in the plurality of child objects; for each of a plurality of queries, ranking, with the ML component, the restricted objects according to relevance; based at least on the query and an inverse of the rank of the restricted objects, assigning a child object label.

Automated labeling of child objects within tagged parents

Solutions for automated labeling of child objects within tagged parents include: receiving a plurality of parent objects, each having a tag and including a plurality of child objects; receiving a machine learning (ML) component operable to rank the parent objects; for each parent object: generating a set of restricted objects, wherein each restricted object is missing a child object; for each of a plurality of queries, ranking, with the ML component, the restricted objects according to relevance; based at least on the query and an inverse of the rank of the restricted objects, assigning a child object label. In some examples, the object missing from the restricted object having the lowest relevance rank is assigned a label based on the query. Various advantageous uses of the assigned child labels include enhancing search result reporting, automatically generating ML training data, and automatically generating and/or modifying reports.
