Server side search with multi-word word wheeling and wildcard expansion
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system that evaluates wildcards, comprising:
- an interface that receives input data at a server side, the input data is provided by a client component; and
an expansion component that evaluates the input data at the server side utilizing a language model to produce a set of expansions where a wildcard located in a midst of the input data is replaced with at least one alphanumeric character for at least one of the expansions of the set.

Abstract
The claimed subject matter provides systems and/or methods that expand input data. An interface can obtain input data and a wildcard insertion component can modify the input data to include at least one implicit wildcard inserted at an end of each intended word. Additionally, an expansion component can generate a candidate list of expanded data based at least in part on the input data including the at least one implicit wildcard utilizing a language model that provides likely expansions of wildcards. Further, the expansion component can evaluate the input data at a server side.
