Personalized Search Via Neural Contextual Semantic Relevance Ranking (2309.05113v1)

Abstract: Existing neural relevance models do not give enough consideration for query and item context information which diversifies the search results to adapt for personal preference. To bridge this gap, this paper presents a neural learning framework to personalize document ranking results by leveraging the signals to capture how the document fits into users' context. In particular, it models the relationships between document content and user query context using both lexical representations and semantic embeddings such that the user's intent can be better understood by data enrichment of personalized query context information. Extensive experiments performed on the search dataset, demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
