Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for interpreting geographical search queries are provided. Query templates for geographical search queries are generated from search logs of previously executed geographical search queries. Unique queries are extracted from the search logs and interpretations for these queries are obtained. Based on these interpretations, query templates having an arrangement of term types are extracted. Additionally, probability distributions for the query templates for a context, such as a locale, language, client type, etc., are determined.
