Application ID: 13088113

Base Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising: accessing clusters, with two or more clusters corresponding to different name contexts, and with a cluster comprising resources that are determined to be relevant to a name context of the cluster; receiving, for a resource in the cluster, a search score for the resource, the search score being indicative of a relevance of the resource to a search query that includes the name context of the cluster; receiving, for the resource in the cluster, a resource ranking score for the resource in the cluster, the resource ranking score being (i) at least partly based on a cluster relation score, and (ii) indicative of a ranking of the resource in the cluster relative to rankings of other resources in the cluster; wherein the cluster relation score is indicative of an authority of the resource relative to authorities of the other resources in the cluster; generating a cluster rank score for the cluster, the cluster rank score at least partly based on the search scores for the resources and the resource ranking scores for the resources; and ranking the clusters according to their cluster rank score.

Claim 2:
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising: generating a quality score for the resource, the quality score being independent of the inclusion of the resource in the cluster and independent of inclusion of other resources in the cluster and indicative of a quality measure of the resource; generating the cluster relation score for the resource; and generating the resource ranking score for the resource, with the resource ranking score at least partly based on the quality score and the cluster relation score.
