US Patent 11768842 Continuous evaluation and adjustment of search engine results

A search engine for objects in a corpus of document dynamically evaluates search rank of the objects through Natural Language Processing and machine learning. When a search query is received for a first object, the search engine identifies search results including a plurality of source values that are tied to the first object in the corpus of published documents. A search rank is computed for each identified search result based on content of direct textual references to each of the plurality of source values within the corpus of published documents, as well as a weight assigned to each published document. The identified search results are returned according to the computed search rank.
