Abstract

In this paper a method for aggregating Web search results is proposed. The aggregator results are compared with the results of most popular search engines: Google, Bing and Yandex. There are 3 stages of the comparison, one for each of the languages: English, Polish and Russian. The quality of the aggregator search results is tested based on user preferences and measured with normalized discounted cumulative gain (nDCG).
