Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for reinforcing and modifying the search engine behavior using aspects of federated learning. A system can receive, from a plurality of first users at a computer system, a query for a product, and generate a vector representation of the query. The system can then execute a search of an embedding space for the vector representation, resulting in a first ranked list of at least one product, wherein the embedding space comprises vectorized product representations for a plurality of products, and wherein the first ranked list is ranked in order of similarity of the vectorized product representations to the vector representation of the query. As feedback is received from multiple users, and the query is received again, the system can generate a second ranked list which is the first ranked list modified by the feedback of the plurality of first users.
