Abstract

More non-English contents are now available on the World Wide Web and the number of non-English users on the Web is increasing. While it is important to understand the Web searching behavior of these non-English users, many previous studies on Web query logs have focused on analyzing English search logs and their results may not be directly applied to other languages. In this Chapter we discuss some methods and techniques that can be used to analyze search queries in Chinese. We also show an example of applying our methods on a Chinese Web search engine. Some interesting findings are reported.
