Abstract

A query phrase automatically classified to one or more topics of interest (e g, categories) to assist in routing the query phrase to one or more appropriate backend databases (350) A selectional preference query classification technique is used to classify the query phrase (340) based on a comparison between the query phrase and patterns of query phrases Additionally, or alternatively, a combination of query classification techniques is used to classify the query phrase Topical classification of a query phrase also is used to assist a search system in delivering auxiliary information to a user who entered the query phrase Advertisements (315), for instance, is tailored based on classification rather than query keywords (Fig 3).
