Abstract

The present invention provides for the generation of structured query results using lexical clustering which includes collecting one or more search queries and data associated with the one or more search queries. The present invention further includes preprocessing the one or more queries into a canonicalized form of each of the one or more queries. The canonicalized form of each of the one or more queries may be accomplished using stemming, punctuation, pluralization, word order or other canonicalization rules. The present invention further includes building a lexical index of the one or more search queries and data associated with the one or more search queries and mining the lexical index of the one or more search queries and data associated with the one or more search queries in order to generate a structured query result set.
