Abstract

Methods for identifying data files responsive to a search query and weighted according to a stylistic preference are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a search query for a collection of media files from a device associated with a user associated with a user identifier, and identifying a set of image files from the collection that is responsive to the query. Each image file in the set is associated with a relevancy score. The method also includes retrieving a stylistic preference profile associated with the user identifier to apply to the set, and weighting the score for each image file according to the profile to generate a weighted stylistic preference score for each image file. The method further includes creating a listing of the set that is sorted according to weighted stylistic preference score, and providing the listing to the device. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
