US Patent 8135728 Web document keyword and phrase extraction

Extraction analysis techniques biased, in part, by query frequency information from a query log file and/or search engine cache are employed along with machine learning processes to determine candidate keywords and/or phrases of web documents. Web oriented features associated with the candidate keywords and/or phrases are also utilized to analyze the web documents. A keyword and/or phrase extraction mechanism can be utilized to score keywords and/or phrases in a web document and estimate a likelihood that the keywords and/or phrases are relevant, for example, in an advertising system and the like.
