Learning to Rank Personalized Search Results in Professional Networks

16 May 2016  ·  Viet Ha-Thuc, Shakti Sinha ·

LinkedIn search is deeply personalized - for the same queries, different searchers expect completely different results. This paper presents our approach to achieving this by mining various data sources available in LinkedIn to infer searchers' intents (such as hiring, job seeking, etc.), as well as extending the concept of homophily to capture the searcher-result similarities on many aspects. Then, learning-to-rank (LTR) is applied to combine these signals with standard search features.
