Abstract

Techniques for determining an editable query which, when executed, identifies and presents a set of member profiles similar to a source member profile are described. In an embodiment, a preliminary set of member profiles similar to a source member profile is identified. A set of profile features is obtained from the preliminary set of similar member profiles, and a set of relevant profile features is extracted from the set of profile features. An editable query including the set of relevant profile features is presented. In an embodiment, the set of member profiles similar to the source member profile and corresponding to the set of relevant profile features is also presented. Upon having been edited, the editable query is executable to identify and present a new set of member profiles corresponding to the edited query.
