| 20110173174 | LINGUISTICALLY ENHANCED SEARCH ENGINE AND META-SEARCH ENGINE - A search enhancement system (whether linked through an API to a search engine or integral to a search engine) creates a series of different narrow searches through the selective use of synonyms, hyponyms for a narrower search, hypernyms for a broader search, and antonyms for a reverse search. Lexical analysis can also be used to create alternative narrow searches. This allows a user to explore different nuances of meaning in an original search phrase until the user finds what he or she wants, while keeping individual searches narrow, thus leading to more focused search results. | 07-14-2011 |
