Blending by query classification on online social networks
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a search query from a user and identifying one or more objects that match the search query. The method includes determining one or more search intents of the search query based on one or more topics associated with the identified objects and a ratio of object-types of the identified objects. The method includes generating search-result modules corresponding to the search query based on the determined search intents. Each search-result module is associated with a particular object-type and includes search results of that object-type. The method includes sending instructions for presenting a search-results interface to the client system of the user for display. The search-results interface may include one or more of the search result modules displayed in a blended order based on the determined search intents.
