Abstract
A plurality of category application queries can be processed, including identifying an associated list of results for each of the category application queries, with each list of results listing one or more applications. A cluster of the category application queries that each have a category in common in an application category stamp can be identified. A proximity graph for the category application queries in the cluster can be generated. The proximity graph can indicate similarity scores based at least in part on numbers of applications in common for lists of results associated with the category application queries in pairs of queries in the cluster. Lists each having one or more suggested alternative category application queries for category application queries in the cluster can be generated, with the generating of the lists of one or more suggested alternative category application queries being based at least in part on the similarity scores.
