Abstract  

[Objective] This paper tries to realize user task-oriented query suggestion from session level based on AOL query log dataset. [Methods] This paper firstly measures the relationship between queries based on user task, and then realizes user task-oriented query recommendation by exploiting random walk to traversal graph model. [Results] The final results show that our query recommendation method outperforms that method which measures relationship between queries by exploiting queries occurrence information. [Limitations] Misspelled candidate queries are not implemented spell correction; Query recommendation are not realized from query level; The recommendation effect of rare queries and ambiguous queries are not good. [Conclusions] Measuring the relationship between queries based on user task can improve the performance of query recommendation.

Key wordsQuery recommendation      User task      Query log
