Abstract

Sponsored search is an important monetization channel for search engines, in which machine learning techniques are used to select the ads shown to users from advertisers. In the past few years, dramatic advances have been witnessed in the field of machine learning techniques in sponsored search. In this presentation, we will first provide overview of machine learning methods and some commonly used open source machine learning tools. After that, we show some practical applications of sponsored search via machine learning techniques, such as, supervised and semi-supervised query classification, query intents identification, fine-grained query clustering. All results indicate that using machine learning techniques allow us to achieve good performance for different real-world sponsored search tasks.
