METHOD OF FACILITATING QUERIES OF A TOPIC-BASED-SOURCE-SPECIFIC SEARCH SYSTEM USING KEY TERM CLUSTERS

摘要

Approaches for facilitating queries of a topic-based-source-specific search system using key term clusters relating to key terms contained within information items. In certain implementations, an input relating to a query may be received. One or more predefined sources and information items may be determined based on the received input. In some implementations, the system may be configured determine one or more key terms from the information items and to display the one or more key terms in a key term cluster. The visual representations, such as color, size, shape, position, and area, of the key terms in the key term cluster may depend on information relating to the corresponding key terms.
