Abstract
Exemplary embodiments include a system and method for Automatic Customization of Content Filtering (ACCF). The method includes receiving a search string from a user, creating a first filter based on the search string and searching different types of content stored in different content locations based on the first filter. The search returns a first subset of results to the user based on the first filter. The method further receives an indication of relevance for each one of the results in the first subset from the user. The method dynamically creates a second filter based on the received indications of relevance for the first subset of results. Based on the second filter, a second subset of more relevant results is returned to the user.
