In some embodiments, the disclosed subject matter involves techniques for generating personalized query suggestions for a user in a specific subject or application domain that are ranked using confidence levels and contextual scoring. Partial query strings may be parsed for literal matching and be processed for spell checks, acronym expansion, and other expansion and rewriting of the partial query to a known possible query suggestion. Possible query suggestions are weighted using global feature metrics and personalized metrics. Various weighting, confidence levels and merging based on scoring may be used to rank the suggestions. A machine learning model may be used to assist in assigning scores based on metrics on interaction in the search domain. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
