Abstract
Techniques for improving search using generalized linear mixed models are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: receiving a search query comprising at least one search term and being associated with a user; extracting features from corresponding profiles of a plurality of candidates; for each one of the candidates, generating a corresponding score based on a generalized linear mixed model comprising a generalized linear query-based model and a random effects user-based model; selecting a subset of candidates from the plurality of candidates based on the corresponding scores; and causing the selected subset of candidates to be displayed to the user in a search results page for the search query.
