Claim:
1. One or more computing devices that implement a latency-efficient system for assigning tags to a linguistic item, comprising: a feature generation component configured to generate a plurality of feature values associated with a linguistic item that has been received from a user, a machine-trained brand classifier component configured to determine, based on a first subset of the plurality of feature values, whether the linguistic item specifies at least one brand, to provide a classifier output result, the brand classifier component including a plurality of classifier subcomponents; a machine-trained tagging component configured to determine, based on a second subset of the plurality of feature values, a tag associated with at least one candidate item within the linguistic item, to produce a tagging output result, the tagging component including a plurality of tagging subcomponents, wherein the plurality of classifier subcomponents and the plurality of tagging subcomponents form a plurality of pairs of classifier subcomponents and tagging subcomponents that are associated with respective product domains, wherein each classifier subcomponent and tagging subcomponent in a particular pair produces, respectively, a partial classifier result and a partial tagging result, the partial tagging result being based, in part, on the partial classifier result, wherein the tagging output result encompasses a plurality of partial tagging results produced by the respective pairs of classifier subcomponents and tagging subcomponents; a post-tagging interpretation component configured to analyze the plurality of partial tagging results, to determine which partial tagging result is most appropriate based on the user's intent, and to produce a final output result corresponding to the partial tagging result that is determined to be most appropriate; and a user interface component to electronically communicate the final output result to the user.
