Support for reverse and stemmed hit-highlighting

Computerized methods and systems for generating a suggested query list with suggested search terms displayed as highlighted text utilizing a user-defined query are provided. Query search terms are received by a user-interface display. Upon inputting query search terms, the user-interface automatically generates a suggested query list. The suggested query list is associated with the query search term and the suggested query list is comprised of at least one suggested search term. A query suggestion architecture determines if the query search term and the suggested search term are a match, and if so, highlights the suggested search term that is not a match. The user interface displays the highlighted terms to assist in refining a search. The present invention further provides a stemming algorithm that extracts the root form of the query search term.

Digital ink database searching using handwriting feature synthesis

A system and method for ink database searching using handwriting feature synthesis is disclosed which allows a digital ink database to be searched using a text-based query. Using a writer-specific handwriting model derived from a handwriting recognition system or suitable training procedure, a text query is converted into feature vectors that are similar to the feature vectors that would have been extracted had the author of the digital ink database written the text query by hand. The feature vectors are then used to search the database. This allows the searching of a digital ink database when the only input mechanism available is text entry, and can allow a person other than the author of the digital ink database to search the digital ink database.

Textual query based multimedia retrieval system

A system and method are proposed for identifying multimedia files in a first database which are related to a textual term specified by a user. The textual term is used to search a second database of multimedia files, each of which is associated with a portion of text. The “second database” is usually composed of files from the databases of a very large number of servers connected via the internet. The multimedia files identified in the search are ones for which the corresponding associated text is relevant to the textual term. The identified multimedia files are used to generate a classifier engine. The classifier engine is then applied to the first database of multimedia files, thereby retrieving multimedia files in the first database which are relevant to the textual term. The user can optionally specify whether the retrieved multimedia files are relevant or not, and this permits a feedback process to improve the classifier engine.

Concept based cross media indexing and retrieval of speech documents

Indexing, searching, and retrieving the content of speech documents (including but not limited to recorded books, audio broadcasts, recorded conversations) is accomplished by finding and retrieving speech documents that are related to a query term at a conceptual level, even if the speech documents does not contain the spoken (or textual) query terms. Concept-based cross-media information retrieval is used. A term-phoneme / document matrix is constructed from a training set of documents. Documents are then added to the matrix constructed from the training data. Singular Value Decomposition is used to compute a vector space from the term-phoneme / document matrix. The result is a lower-dimensional numerical space where term-phoneme and document vectors are related conceptually as nearest neighbors. A query engine computes a cosine value between the query vector and all other vectors in the space and returns a list of those term-phonemes and / or documents with the highest cosine value.

A system and method for retrieving and intelligently grouping definitions with common semantic meaning is disclosed. In response to a user's textual query for the definition of a term or phrase, a set of documents is retrieved from a repository of structured documents. The retrieved documents are labeled with a prediction score based upon predetermined glossary characteristics of the documents. In order to determine whether the retrieved documents are likely to be definitions, features commonly found in definitions are identified. The identified features are classified with numeric values and weighed using a support vector regression algorithm. Definitions that fail to meet a predetermined threshold score are discarded, and those that exceed a predetermined threshold score are labeled and stored in the local database.

Progressively refining a speech-based search

Disclosed are editing methods that are added to speech-based searching to allow users to better understand textual queries submitted to a search engine and to easily edit their speech queries. According to some embodiments, the user begins to speak. The user's speech is translated into a textual query and submitted to a search engine. The results of the search are presented to the user. As the user continues to speak, the user's speech query is refined based on the user's further speech. The refined speech query is converted to a textual query which is again submitted to the search engine. The refined results are presented to the user. This process continues as long as the user continues to refine the query. Some embodiments present the textual query to the user and allow the user to use both speech-based and non-speech-based tools to edit the textual query.
