Systems and methods for document searching
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for keyword searching, the method comprising:
- generating, by a server, tokens for a plurality of keywords in a document collection, wherein the generating further comprises determining a keyword position of a keyword in a document of the document collection, and determining a number of noisy keywords preceding the keyword in the document;
merging the tokens to create an index;
receiving a search query, wherein the search query includes at least one search phrase;
receiving, for the at least one search phrase, an indication from a user specifying to perform one of a noisy phrase search or a noiseless phrase search;
searching the index for the at least one search phrase based on the indication received from the user; and
when the indication from the user specifies a noiseless phrase search, performing the noiseless phrase search at least in part by subtracting a value of the keyword position by the number of noisy keywords preceding the keyword.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for document searching. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method provides keyword searching. The method may receive a plurality of noisy keywords for a document collection. A server may generate tokens for a plurality of keywords in the document collection and merge the tokens to create an index. A search query may be received. The search query may include at least one search phrase. For the at least one search phrase, an indication may be received from a user specifying to perform one of a noisy phrase search or a noiseless phrase search. The method may search the index for the at least one search phrase based on the indication received from the user.
