Abstract

A good ranking is critical to gain a positive searching experience. With usage data collected from past searching activities, it could be improved from current approaches which are largely based on text or link information. In this paper, we proposed a usage-based ranking algorithm. Basically, it calculates the rank score on time duration considering the propagated effect, which is an improvement on the simple selection frequency determined method. Besides, it also has some heuristics to further improve the accuracy of top-positioned results.
