Building containers of uncategorized items

A computer-implemented method for diversifying search results by selectively compressing a result set, comprising:

• receiving, by the server of a network-based publication system, a search query including one or more keywords;
• collecting, by a server of the network-based publication system, information from titles of items available for purchase within a network-based publication system;
• generating, by the server of the network-based publication system, a title for a container of uncategorized items available for purchase within the network-based publication system that is based on the collected information;
• based on generating the title for the container, automatically associating;
• by the server of the network-based publication system, two or more uncategorized items available for purchase within the network-based publication system to the container based on a comparison of titles of the two or more uncategorized items and the generated title for the container of uncategorized items, the association of the two or more uncategorized items to the container grouping the two or more uncategorized items in a category corresponding to the generated title for the container;
• based on the one or more keywords, identifying, by the server of the network-based publication system, a plurality of listing information on a storage device coupled to the server, the plurality of listing information representing a plurality of categorized items;
• determining that the title of the container satisfies the search query and the two or more uncategorized items associated with the container are identified by the one or more keywords;
• and
• based on the association of the two or more uncategorized items to the container, automatically generating, by the server of the network-based publication system, at least a portion of a webpage to be displayed, the webpage containing listing information for one or more items included in the plurality of categorized items and a product purchase page for the container, the product purchase page including descriptions of the two or more uncategorized items and compressing display of the listing information of the two or more uncategorized items within the product page of the container.

A computer-readable storage medium whose contents, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations for diversifying search results by selectively compressing a result set, the operations comprising:

• receiving by a server of a network-based publication system, a search query including one or more keywords;
• collecting information from titles of items available for purchase within the network-based publication system;
• collecting information from a set of prior search queries received by the network-based publication system;
• generating a title for a container of uncategorized items available for purchase within the network-based publication system based on the collected information;
• based on generating the title for the container, automatically associating, by the server of the network-based publication system, two or more uncategorized items available for purchase within the network-based publication system to the container based on a comparison of titles of the two or more uncategorized items and the generated title for the container of uncategorized items, the association of the two or more uncategorized items to the container grouping the two or more uncategorized items in a category corresponding to the generated title for the container;
• based on the one or more keywords, identifying, by the server of the network-based publication system, a plurality of listing information on a storage device coupled to the server, the plurality of listing information representing a plurality of categorized items;
• determining that the title of the container satisfies the search query and the two or more uncategorized items associated with the container are identified by the one or more keywords;
• and
• based on the association of the two or more uncategorized items to the container, automatically generating, by the server of the network-based publication system, at least a portion of a webpage to be displayed, the webpage containing listing information for one or more items included in the plurality of categorized items and a product purchase page for the container, the product purchase page includes descriptions of the two or more uncategorized items and compressing display of the listing information of the two or more uncategorized items within the product page of the container.
