摘要:A search engine process predicts the correct spellings of search terms within
multiple-term search queries. In one embodiment, when a user submits a multiple-termsearch query that includes a non-matching term and at least one matching term, a tableis accessed to look up a set of terms that are “related” to the matching term or terms.A spelling comparison function is then used to determine whether any of these relatedterms is sufficiently similar in spelling to the non-matching term to be deemed acandidate correctly-spelled replacement. A candidate replacement term mayautomatically be substituted for the non-matching term, or may be suggested to theuser as a replacement. The invention also includes a process for identifying terms thatare related to each other based on the relatively high frequencies with which they co-occur in search queries of users, database records, and/or specific database fields.
