Abstract

With the explosion of the Internet, search engines are more and more popular. Up to now, most of the search engines will provide the same results to the different users on the same query. However, users may have their own sense of the same query and need personalized results. Also users are often not satisfied with the results primitively returned and need some mechanism for refining the results. In this work, we propose an on-line text distinguishers collection method under an interactive meta search framework. We also use those distinguishers to re-rank the search results to achieve the specific ranking order. Text distinguishers are defined as those words which can separate one document from others. They can be used to reflect the user's preference for a specific query.
