Concept-based autosuggest based on previously identified items

摘要

An automated concept-based autosuggest mechanism is provided for automatically tailoring autosuggestions in a search engine to particular medical concepts being searched. The mechanism identifies a concept-based text pattern dictionary data structure associated with text being dynamically entered by a user based on a previously identified item. The mechanism dynamically matches a set of text patterns in the concept-based text pattern dictionary data structure with a portion of text being dynamically entered by the user into a field of the user interface. The mechanism generates a user selectable output in the user interface specifying the matching set of text patterns from the concept-based text pattern dictionary data structure. The mechanism automatically populates the field of the user interface with a selected text pattern from the set of matching text patterns in response to user selection of the selectable text patter in the user selectable output in the user interface.
