Surfacing live events in search results
Implementations include actions of obtaining a set of entities based on one or more terms of a query, obtaining one or more entities associated with each live event of a plurality of live events, identifying a live event that is responsive to the query based on comparing at least one entity in the set of entities to one or more entities associated with each live event of a plurality of live events, determining that an event search result corresponding to the live event is to be displayed in search results, and in response: providing the event search result for display, the event search result including information associated with the live event, the information including an indicator of an occurrence of the live event.
1. A computer-implemented method executed by one or more processors, the method comprising:
receiving a request for feed sources;
determining, by the one or more processors, whether the request is to search for live streamed content in the feed sources for live events;
in response to determining that the intent is to search for live events including live streamed content in the feed sources for the live events based on the one or more tenns of the request:
identifying, by the one or more processors, live events that are responsive to the request;
determining that the live events include content that is to be streamed live and that the occurrence of the live streamed content of the live event is within a threshold period of time after the request is received;
determining, by the one or more processors and based on the determination that the live events include content that is to be streamed live and that the occurrence of the live streamed content is within the threshold period of time, that live event feeds corresponding to the live events are to be displayed in search results, wherein the determining also includes determining a quality score for each live event of the live events; and
providing, by the one or more processors, for each live event, a live event feed for the live event, wherein the live event feed includes video content to be streamed live that is viewable in one or more resources, the live event feed being presented if the quality score for the respective live event is greater than a threshold quality score;
in response to determining that the intent is not to search for live events including live streamed content in the feed sources for the live events;
obtaining, by the one or more processors, a set of feed sources responsive to the request that are not live events; and
providing, by one or more processors, the set of feed sources responsive to the request that are not live event search results for display.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an indicator indicates that the live event is occurring concurrently with display of the live event feed.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein an indicator indicates a time at which the live event is scheduled to occur.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining that an event search result corresponding to the live event is to be displayed comprises:
determining that a factual summary associated with at least one entity is to be displayed in search results.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the request is a query.
6. A system comprising:
a data store for storing data; and
one or more processors configured to interact with the data store, the one or more processors being further configured to perform operations comprising:
receiving a request for feed sources;
determining, by the one or more processors, whether the request is to search for live streamed content in the feed sources for live events;
in response to determining that the intent is to search for live events including live streamed content in the feed sources for the live events based on the one or more terms of the request:
identifying, by the one or more processors, live events that are responsive to the request;
determining that the live events include content that is to be streamed live and that the occurrence of the live streamed content of the live event is within a threshold period of time after the request is received;
determining, by the one or more processors and based on the determination that the live events include content that is to be streamed live and that the occurrence of the live streamed content is within the threshold period of time, that live event feeds corresponding to the live events are to be displayed in search results wherein the determining also includes determining a quality score for each live event of the live events; and
providing, by the one or more processors, for each live event, a live event feed for the live event, wherein the live event feed includes video content to be streamed live that is viewable in one or more resources, the live event feed being presented if the quality score for the respective live event is greater than a threshold quality score;
in response to determining that the intent is not to search for live events including live streamed content in the feed sources for the live events;
obtaining, by the one or more processors, a set of feed sources responsive to the request that are not live events; and
providing, by one or more processors, the set of feed sources responsive to the request that are not live event search results for display.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein—an indicator indicates that the live event is occurring concurrently with display of the live event feed.
8. The system of claim 6 , wherein—an indicator indicates a time at which the live event is scheduled to occur.
9. The system of claim 6 , wherein determining that an event search result corresponding to the live event is to be displayed comprises:
determining that a factual summary associated with at least one entity is to be displayed in search results.
10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the request is a query.
11. A non-transitory computer storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving a request for teed sources;
determining, by the one or more processors, whether the request is to search for live streamed content in the feed sources for live events;
in response to determining that the intent is to search for live events including live streamed content in the feed sources for the live events based on the one or more terms of the request:
identifying, by the one or more processors, live events that are responsive to the request;
determining that the live events include content that is to be streamed live and that the occurrence of the live streamed content of the live event is within a threshold period of time after the request is received;
determining, by the one or more processors and based on the determination that the live events include content that is to be streamed live and that the occurrence of the live streamed content is within the threshold period of time, that live event feeds corresponding to the live events are to be displayed in search results wherein the determining also includes determining a quality score for each live event of the live events; and
providing, by the one or more processors, for each live event, a live event feed for the live event, wherein the live event feed includes video content to be streamed live that is viewable in one or more resources, the live event feed being presented if the quality score for the respective live event is greater than a threshold quality score;
in response to determining that the intent is not to search for live events including live streamed content in the feed sources for the live events;
obtaining, by the one or more processors, a set of feed sources responsive to the request that are not live events; and
providing, by one or more processors, the set of feed sources responsive to the request that are not live event search results for display.
12. The non-transitory computer storage medium of claim 11 , wherein an indicator indicates that the live event is occurring concurrently with display of the live event feed.
13. The non-transitory computer storage medium of claim 11 , wherein an indicator indicates a time at which the live event is scheduled to occur.
14. The non-transitory computer storage medium of claim 11 , wherein determining that an event search result corresponding to the live event is to be displayed comprises:
determining that a factual summary associated with at least one entity is to be displayed in search results.
15. The non-transitory computer storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the request is a query.
