Structured Annotations of Web Queries
Summary: Unsupervised discovery of latent structured semantics in web queries, mapping queries to structured tables as Structured Annotations. Fast, scalable tagging over tables via a probabilistic generative score and dynamic threshold to filter misannotations; only a few per-query annotations are sensible, with promising results on real data.
