METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SEARCH ENGINE ENHANCEMENT

摘要

A method and a system for search enhancement that can deal with semantic differences in a manner that does not require the user to have a PhD in search or in linguistics. Furthermore, extended, semi-automatic use of synonyms of related terms is necessary to avoid interaction with an ontological tree, as is typically presented by large search portals on the public Internet. Using a common Thesaurus as a basis; which improves over time based upon collective use is one of the novel elements in this approach. In addition, a user friendly navigation schema for easily exposing where to go for a particular result is mandatory. Furthermore, it is desirable, that such interface be intuitive to use, and not require lengthy training for fast and effective use.
