title: Query Portals creator: Agrawal, Sanjay creator: Chakrabarti, Kaushik creator: Chaudhuri, Surajit creator: Ganti, Venkatesh creator: Konig, Arnd creator: Xin, Dong description: Our goal is to enable users to efficiently and effectively search the web for informational queries and browse the content relevant to their queries. We achieve a unique “portal” like functionality for each query by effectively exploiting structured and unstructured content. We exploit existing structured data to identify and return per query a set of highly relevant entities such as people, products, movies, locations. Further, we are able to return additional information about the retrieved entities, such as categories, refined queries, and web sites which provide detailed information for each entity. The combination of search results and structured data creates a rich set of results, for the user to focus on and refine their search. date: 2009-04 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Agrawal, Sanjay and Chakrabarti, Kaushik and Chaudhuri, Surajit and Ganti, Venkatesh and Konig, Arnd and Xin, Dong (2009) Query Portals.
