Impact Alert: Why Was a Spike in Hotel Bookings No Cause for Celebration?
One of the world’s leading bed banks – a wholesaler of hotel allocations to B2B and B2C clients – recently experienced a surge in bookings. Great news, right? Not really. A glitch caused room prices from one of their hotel suppliers to drop from $100+ per night to JUST $8. Imagine how much this glitch could have cost them if left unchecked.

A user looking for “awesome smartphone 2018” is likely really after “+review:awesome +category:smartphone +release_date:2018”. A clever use of (e)dismax might get us pretty close to where we want, but it’s not real query understanding. There are other ways, of course, like training a model that will, based on the keyword, guess which field it’s looking into.
Entity Extraction for Product Searches
Entity extraction is, in the context of search, the process of figuring out which fields a query should target, as opposed to always hitting all fields. The reason we may want to involve entity extraction in search is to improve precision. For example: how do we tell that, when the user typed in Apple iPhone, the intent was to run company:Apple AND product:iPhone? And not bring back phone stickers in the shape of an apple?
