This document discusses how Google uses structured data and annotations to power its search results. It describes Andrew Hogue's work using annotation frameworks to link unstructured data to a fact repository known as a knowledge graph. The document outlines several patents related to augmenting queries, generating related questions, and identifying structured data and candidate answer passages to provide contextual search results.

Annotation Framework
Abstract
A fact repository contains facts having attributes and
values and further having associated annotations,
which are used, among other things, to vet facts in
the repository and which can be returned in
response to a query.

Augmentation Queries
For example, augmentation queries can be
identified by mining query logs and click logs.
Using the query logs, for example, the
augmentation query subsystem can identify
common user queries. The click logs can be used
to identify which user queries perform best, as
indicated by the number of clicks associated with
each query. The augmentation query subsystem
stores the augmentation queries mined from the
query logs and/or the click logs in the
augmentation query store.

Structured Data and Answer Passages
Candidate answer passages
US Patent: 10,180,964
… wherein a first subset of passage unit selection criteria
applies to structured content and a second subset of passage
unit selection criteria applies to unstructured content; and
generating, from passage units that satisfy the set of passage
unit selection criterion, a set of candidate answer passages,
each candidate answer passage being eligible to be provided
as an answer passage with search results that identify the
resources determined to be responsive to the query and being
separate and distinct from the search results.
