US 10,885,077 B2 · Subquery generation from a query

Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating subqueries from a query. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining a query, generating a set of two subqueries from the query, where the set includes a first subquery and a second subquery, determining a quality score for the set of two subqueries, determining whether the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies a quality threshold, and in response to determining that the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies the quality threshold, providing a first response to the first subquery that is responsive to a first operation that receives the first subquery as input and providing a second response to the second subquery that is responsive to a second operation that receives the second subquery as input.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method, the method comprising:

obtaining a query;
generating a set of two subqueries from the query, where the set includes a first subquery and a second subquery;
determining a quality score for the set of two subqueries;
determining whether the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies a quality threshold;
and
in response to determining that the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies the quality threshold, providing a first response to the first subquery that is responsive to a first operation that receives the first subquery as input and providing a second response to the second subquery that is responsive to a second operation that receives the second subquery as input.

A system comprising:

a data processing apparatus;
and
a non-transitory computer readable storage medium in data communication with the data processing apparatus and storing instructions executable by the data processing apparatus and upon such execution cause the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
obtaining a query;
generating a set of two subqueries from the query, where the set includes a first subquery and a second subquery;
determining a quality score for the set of two subqueries;
determining whether the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies a quality threshold;
and
in response to determining that the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies the quality threshold, providing a first response to the first subquery that is responsive to a first operation that receives the first subquery as input and providing a second response to the second subquery that is responsive to a second operation that receives the second subquery as input.
