| Title: | Extending a search engine with semantic information | |
| Description: | We are used to keyword-based search engines, where only documents matching the exact words in the query are retrieved.
Aim of this project is to expand a traditional search engine with semantic information, so that also documents containing words related to the ones in the query can be retrieved. Existing thesauri and ontologies can be used, as well as more dynamic and interactive sources of knowledge such as user tags and wikipedia pages and categories. Starting points for this work can be the projects "SeQuEx - Semantic Query Expansion" and "Enriching search results with semantic metadata". | |

We are used to keyword-based search engines, where only documents matching the exact words in the query are retrieved.
Aim of this project is to expand a traditional search engine with semantic information, so that also documents containing words related to the ones in the query can be retrieved. Existing thesauri and ontologies can be used for the expansion, as well as more dynamic and interactive sources of knowledge such as user tags and wikipedia pages and categories.
Starting points for this work can be the projects SeQuEx - Semantic Query Expansion and Enriching search results with semantic metadata.
- Tools and instruments
- the project should be preferibly implemented in Java, extending Solr, an open source enterprise search server based on the Lucene Java search library.
