One exemplary aspect comprises a computer system comprising: (a) a preprocessing unit that extracts text from a webpage to produce at least a first set of candidate keywords, applies language processing to produce at least a second set of candidate keywords, and combines said first and second sets of candidate keywords into a first candidate pool; (b) a candidate extraction unit that receives data from said preprocessing unit describing at least said first candidate pool and produces a second candidate pool; (c) a feature extraction unit that receives data describing at least said second candidate pool and analyzes said second candidate pool for general features and linguistic features; and (d) a classification unit that receives said data describing at least said second candidate pool and related data from said feature extraction unit, and determines a likelihood of each candidate in said second candidate pool being a primary or secondary keyword.

Systems and methods regarding keyword extraction

The present disclosure is directed to a computer system and method performed by a selectively programmed data processor for providing data to a Web page such that items are presented to the user in a way that imitates a real world shopping experience. Various aspects of the disclosed technology also relate to systems and methods for calculating product or category associations using associative relation extraction. Additional aspects of the disclosed technology relate to automatic topic discovery, and event and category matching.

System and method for association extraction for surf-shopping

Methods are disclosed for acquiring ontological knowledge using query logs. In one embodiment, query logs are first utilized as a basis for identifying important contexts associated with terms belonging to a semantic category. Then, those contexts are as a basis for identifying new terms belonging to the same category or, in another embodiment, as a basis for removing extraneous or obsolete terms identified as being in the same category.
