Product search learns to reformulate queries

Product-search research studied query reformulation through reinforcement learning. The source bounds the event: an experimental result is not revenue or satisfaction, and reformulation can drift from the original intent. The story teaches how to evaluate search through original query, proposed change, relevance, coverage and drift harm.
