Abstract

Faceted search is a kind of exploratory search, which is the complementary of keyword search. The current faceted search techniques display all facets. When there are plenty of facets, they are not available. Existing facet recommendation approaches mainly select facets according to the experts’ experience or the statistics. They do not consider the user’s interest which affects the recommendation result. Thus, this paper proposes a personalized facet recommendation approach based on conditional random fields. First, we use the user’s query logs to build user profile and regard the facets in the logs which the user selects as his/her interested ones. Second, we select multiple kinds of features and use conditional random fields to construct the facet classification model. At last, when a user submits a query, the system selects all candidate facets and uses the facet classification model to predict their interest degrees. Then it sorts these facets from the highest degree to the lowest degree and shows top-k facets to the user. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of our approach.
