• Title: The Essence of the Essence from the Web:The Metasearch Engine
• Authors: Rajender Nath, Satinder Bal,
• Abstract summary: Metasearch Engine comes into play by reducing the user burden by dispatching queries to multiple search engines in parallel. These engines do not own a database of Web pages rather they send search terms to the databases maintained by the search engine companies. In this paper, we describe the working of a typical metasearch engine and then present a comparative study of traditional search engines and metasearch engines on the basis of different parameters.

• Abstract: The exponential growth of information source on the web and in turn continuing technological progress of searching the information by using tools like Search Engines gives rise to many problems for the user to know which tool is best for their query and which tool is not. At this time Metasearch Engine comes into play by reducing the user burden by dispatching queries to multiple search engines in parallel and refining the results of these search engines to give the best out of best by doing superior job on their side. These engines do not own a database of Web pages rather they send search terms to the databases maintained by the search engine companies, get back results from all the search engines queried and then compile the results to be presented to the user. In this paper, we describe the working of a typical metasearch engine and then present a comparative study of traditional search engines and metasearch engines on the basis of different parameters and show how metasearch engines are better than the other search engines.

• PseudoSeer: a Search Engine for Pseudocode [18.726136894285403]
  A novel pseudocode search engine is designed to facilitate efficient retrieval and search of academic papers containing pseudocode. By leveraging snippets, the system enables users to search across various facets of a paper, such as the title, abstract, author information, and code snippets. A weighted BM25-based ranking algorithm is used by the search engine, and factors considered when prioritizing search results are described.

  In information retrieval, facet identification of a user query is an important task. Previous studies can enhance facet prediction by leveraging retrieved documents and related queries obtained through a search engine. However, there are challenges in extending it to other applications when a search engine operates as part of the model.

  We formalize the unified framework of generative engines (GEs) GEs use large language models (LLMs) to gather and summarize information to answer user queries. Generative Engines typically satisfy queries by synthesizing information from multiple sources and summarizing them. We introduce Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), the first novel paradigm to aid content creators in improving their content visibility in generative engine responses.

  We examine the levels of support for different moderation practices applied to potentially misleading and/or potentially offensive content in web search. We find that the most supported practice is informing users about potentially misleading or offensive content, and the least supported one is the complete removal of search results. More conservative users and users with lower levels of trust in web search results are more likely to be against content moderation in web search.

  Generative search engines directly generate responses to user queries, along with in-line citations. We conduct human evaluation to audit four popular generative search engines. We find that responses from existing generative search engines are fluent and appear informative, but frequently contain unsupported statements and inaccurate citations.
