Abstract
A query may be received at a computing device through a network. One or more attribute values that are preferences for a subset of the one or more terms of the query may be identified by the computing device. One or more products or services having associated attributes that have values that match a subset of the identified attribute values may be identified by the computing device, and a subset of the identified products or services may be presented by the computing device through the network. Implementations may also identify latent preferences, that is, preferences that are found for a query even where such a preference is not explicitly part of a term or token of the query.
