Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a first query inputted by a first user at a first client system, the first query including one or more n-grams; identifying ideograms, each ideogram being associated with one or more tags, each identified ideogram being associated with at least one tag matching at least one of the n-grams of the received first query; calculating, for each identified ideogram, a use-probability for the ideogram given the received first query, wherein the use-probability is based at least in part on a frequency of use associated with the ideogram; and sending, to the first client system, instructions for presenting a first set of ideograms comprising one or more of the identified ideograms, the first set being determined based on the calculated use-probabilities associated with the ideograms.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising, by one or more computing devices: receiving, from a first client system of a first user, a first query inputted by the first user at the first client system, the first query comprising one or more n-grams; identifying one or more ideograms, each ideogram being associated with one or more tags, each identified ideogram being associated with at least one tag matching at least one of the n-grams of the received first query; calculating, for each identified ideogram, a use-probability for the ideogram given the received first query, wherein the use-probability is based at least in part on a frequency of use associated with the ideogram; sending, to the first client system, instructions for presenting a first set of ideograms comprising one or more of the identified ideograms, the first set being determined based on the calculated use-probabilities associated with the ideograms; receiving a second query from a second client system of a second user, the second query inputted by the second user at the second client system, the second query comprising one or more n-grams; and identifying one or more ideograms, each identified ideogram associated with at least one tag matching at least one of the n-grams of the received second query. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the n-grams corresponds to an emoticon. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first user is a user of an online social network and wherein frequency of use is determined for a plurality of users of the online social network. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the frequency of use is determined for the first user. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein s denotes an ideogram, q denotes the first query, and the use-probability, P(s|q), is computed as: P ( s | q ) = P ( q | s ) · P ( s ) P ( q ) = P ( q | s ) · P ( s ) wherein [ 1 ] P ( q | s ) = number of times s was sent for q number of times s was sent for any
