Systems and methods of refining chunks identified within multiple documents
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- at a computer having memory, a display, and one or more processors;
receiving a first user request including a first set of search keywords;
identifying a first set of chunks within multiple documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the first set of search keywords;
displaying at least a portion of the first set of chunks on the display, including highlighting the terms matching the first set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a first manner;
receiving a second user request to search among the documents for documents that satisfy a second set of search keywords;
identifying a second set of chunks within the documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the second set of search keywords; and
displaying at least a portion of the second set of chunks on the display, including highlighting the terms matching the second set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a second manner that is different from the first manner.

Abstract
After receiving a first user request including a first set of search keywords, a computer identifies a first set of chunks within multiple documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the first set of search keywords, and displays at least a portion of the first set of chunks, including highlighting the terms matching the first set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a first manner. After receiving a second user request to search among the documents for documents that satisfy a second set of search keywords, the computer identifies a second set of chunks within the documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the second set of search keywords, and displays at least a portion of the second set of chunks, including highlighting the terms matching the second set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a second manner that is different from the first manner.

6. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
at a computer having memory, a display, and one or more processors; receiving, from a user, a first user request including a first set of search keywords; identifying multiple documents, wherein each document includes at least one chunk that satisfies the first set of search keywords; receiving, from the user, a second user request to search among the chunks in the identified documents for chunks that satisfy a second set of search keywords; identifying a subset of the chunks, wherein each chunk in the subset satisfies the second set of search keywords; and displaying, to the user, at least one of the subset of the chunks on the display. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A computer system, comprising:
-
memory; a display; one or more processors; one or more programs stored in the memory and configured for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including; instructions for receiving a first user request including a first set of search keywords; instructions for identifying a first set of chunks within multiple documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the first set of search keywords; instructions for displaying at least a portion of the first set of chunks on the display, including highlighting the terms matching the first set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a first manner; instructions for receiving a second user request to search among the documents for documents that satisfy a second set of search keywords; instructions for identifying a second set of chunks within the documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the second set of search keywords; and instructions for displaying at least a portion of the second set of chunks on the display, including highlighting the terms matching the second set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a second manner that is different from the first manner. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A computer readable storage medium having stored therein instructions, which when executed by a computer system having a display, cause the computer system to:
-
receive a first user request including a first set of search keywords; identify a first set of chunks within multiple documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the first set of search keywords; display at least a portion of the first set of chunks on the display, including highlighting the terms matching the first set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a first manner; receive a second user request to search among the documents for documents that satisfy a second set of search keywords; identify a second set of chunks within the documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the second set of search keywords; and display at least a portion of the second set of chunks on the display, including highlighting the terms matching the second set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a second manner that is different from the first manner. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A graphical user interface on a computer display, comprising:
-
a first set of search results displayed in a text-only display format, wherein each search result includes one or more chunks identified within a respective document as satisfying a first set of search keywords, wherein; in response to a user request to search among the identified chunks for chunks that satisfy a second set of search keywords, the first set of search results is replaced by a second set of search results, wherein each search result in the second set includes one or more chunks identified within a respective document as satisfying both the first set of search keywords and the second set of search keywords. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
