A user-centric search evaluation method, BloomIntent, employs Large Language Models to generate and assess diverse, fine-grained user intents for search queries. The system's two-stage pipeline for intent generation and contextualized evaluation demonstrated evaluable, realistic intents and moderate agreement with human experts.

Key insights

  • LLMs can effectively generate diverse, evaluable, and realistic fine-grained user intents, often uncovering goals beyond typical human imagination or biases.
  • Automated LLM-based evaluation of SERPs against specific intents provides reasonable agreement with human judgments, particularly for clear-cut cases, serving as a cost-effective diagnostic tool.
  • Clustering of intents is crucial for reducing review burden and enables search specialists to derive actionable insights at a higher, more manageable level.
