Abstract
A trained search system can be configured to retrieve a candidate subset of results, where the trained search system uses data extracted from a machine learning scheme. The machine learning scheme can be trained to identify results that are ranked by a computationally expensive algorithm, such as a ranking algorithm. When a query is received, the trained search system can be used to retrieve results instead of applying the computationally expensive ranking algorithm.
