Abstract

The multi-directional and auto-adaptive relevance and search methods hereof are capable of clustering information and users in ways that allow for higher quality search results to be provided to all the users of the system. As part of the operation of the search engine, both information pages and users are clustered in meaningful ways using multi-layer association graphs. Specifically, a multi-directional approach is used to allow the transfer of information from the users to the information pages in addition to the traditional transfer of data from the information pages to the user. The clustering is performed with respect to the identification of clusters of plurality of users that enables the information pages clustering in a dynamic way providing additional refinements beyond user profiles. Furthermore, the system is configured to provide personalized advisory by presenting additional search phrases tailored to the searching user.
