Query recommendation is an essential part of modern search engine which aims at helping users find useful information. Existing query recommendation methods all focus on recommending similar queries to the users. However, the main problem of these similarity-based approaches is that even some very similar queries may return few or even no useful search results, while other less similar queries may return more useful search results, especially when the initial query does not reflect user’s search intent correctly. Therefore, we propose recommending high utility queries, that is, useful queries with more relevant documents, rather than similar ones. In this paper, we first construct a query-reformulation graph that consists of query nodes, satisfactory document nodes, and interruption node. Then, we apply an absorbing random walk on the query-reformulation graph and model the document utility with the transition probability from initial query to the satisfactory document. At last, we propagate the document utilities back to queries and rank candidate queries with their utilities for recommendation. Extensive experiments were conducted on real query logs, and the experimental results have shown that our method significantly outperformed the state-of-the-art methods in recommending high utility queries.

Exploratory search aids in the production of desired results which improve browsing abilities of user in current era. To improve search engine performance, this method inspects search goal shift to obtain pertinent knowledge about query entered by the user. The existing system fails to provide bigram relationship and ignores synonyms of the submitted query. Also there is un-certainty of spam links which may be included in the final result. To overcome these lacunas, the proposed framework will conduct an exploratory search to recommend query by making use of bi-gram approach which will also remove the spam links with the help of trust rank algorithm and finds all possible synonyms of the submitted query in order to obtain a proper result. This phenomenon helps to produce better user recommendations.

As web contents grow, the importance of search engines become more critical and at the same time user satisfaction decreases. Query recommendation is a new approach to improve search results in web. In this paper a method is proposed that, given a query submitted to a search engine, suggests a list of queries that are related to the user input query. The related queries are based on previously issued queries, and can be issued by the user to the search engine to tune or redirect the search process. The proposed method is based on clustering processes in which groups of semantically similar queries are detected. The clustering process uses the content of historical preferences of users registered in the query log of the search engine. This facility provides queries that are related to the ones submitted by users in order to direct them toward their required information. This method not only discovers the related queries but also ranks them according to a similarity measure. The method has been evaluated using real data sets from the search engine query log.
