I was also of the view that clustering is not so useful for targeted searching but changed my mind when started seeing some really feature and UI rich visual clusters. I am attaching a URL for list of clustering engines: http://www.abhishekmehta.com/apache-roller-4/blogs/date/20090209 Since opening up of yahoo’s indexing service like BOSS, clustering will get even more boost.

Thu, 08 Jan 2009 19:44:15 +0000 http://federatedsearchblog.com/2008/01/22/what-is-clustering/#comment-14637 Sol, I know this comes a bit late , but want to mention that "Clustering" might probably come in handy when the user has no knowledge of the available content or if he is aimless, looking for new information. But, in an Enterprise site search , where users knows exactly know what they are looking for (per say, a retail distributor searching for a product document within a site), the percentage of users clicking on a cluster will be very low. So, the usage of clusters will differ based on search context. Thanks. Sol,
