System and Method for Presenting Geolocated Relevance-Based Content

Abstract

System and method for presenting geolocated relevance-based content. In one example, presence of a user is detected at a location. A plurality of search queries associated with the location are obtained. At least one search query is identified from the plurality of search queries based on information associated with the user. A search result is then generated based on the at least one identified search query to the user.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method implemented on at least one machine each having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for providing content, the method comprising:
 detecting presence of a user at a location;   obtaining a plurality of search queries associated with the location;   identifying at least one search query from the plurality of search queries based on information associated with the user; and   providing a search result generated based on the at least one identified search query to the user.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the location of the user is detected based on a mobile device of the user. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the information associated with the user includes at least one of demographics, preferences, and search history. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the search history includes information associated with search histories of the user and/or of others. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein the at least one search query is identified based on the search history. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 determining a user group associated with the user based on the information associated with the user.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , where the user group includes at least one of:
 a group of users who perform searches at the location; and   a group of users who perform searches associated with a particular topic at the location.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 determining a scope of the location; and   identifying the at least one search query from the plurality of search queries based on popularities of the plurality of search queries within the scope of the location.   
     
     
         9 . A method implemented on at least one machine each having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for providing content, the method comprising:
 detecting presence of a user at a location;   obtaining a plurality of search queries associated with the location;   determining a user group associated with the user and one or more search queries associated with the user group based on information associated with the user;   identifying at least one search query from the one or more search queries associated with the user group based on the information associated with the user; and   providing a search result generated based on the at least one identified search query to the user.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the location of the user is detected based on a mobile device of the user. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the information associated with the user includes at least one of demographics, preferences, and search history. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the search history includes information associated with search histories of the user and/or of others. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the at least one search query is identified based on the search history. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 9 , where the user group includes at least one of:
 a group of users who perform searches at the location; and   a group of users who perform searches associated with a particular topic at the location.   
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 determining a scope of the location; and   identifying the at least one search query from one or more search queries based on popularities of the one or more search queries within the scope of the location.   
     
     
         16 . A method implemented on at least one machine each having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for providing content, the method comprising:
 identifying a plurality of search queries associated with a location, wherein the plurality of search queries were received from a plurality of users at the location;   determining at least one user group based on information associated with the plurality of users; and   associating at least one of the plurality of search queries with each of the at least one user group.   
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein the information associated with the plurality of users includes at least one of demographics, preferences, and search history. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 16 , where the user group includes at least one of:
 a group of users who perform searches at the location; and   a group of users who perform searches associated with a particular topic at the location.   
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 16 , further comprising:
 ranking the plurality of search queries by popularity.   
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein the plurality of search queries were entered through mobile devices of the plurality of users.
