Abstract
Techniques for optimizing search result snippet selection. In one aspect, the techniques include receiving a query and identifying a set of documents matching the query. A set of one or more snippet field types for a snippet representing a corresponding document of the set of documents is selected based at least in part on a snippet selection model. The snippet selection model is adjusted to reinforce or discourage selection of the set of one or more snippet field types for future queries based on the user click.
