The application of semantic search in technology

We are so used to using search engines in our everyday lives now that everybody wants to be at the top of the search engines for certain keywords. Hence the search process has become ever more complicated and it can be a struggle for technology to keep up. You put in your search parameters and when the search results are returned you may find that nothing on the first page or two is even relevant to what you want because there is not sufficient context.

Semantic search gives context and meaning to keywords and aims to understand how human beings really approach the search process.  With the study of human behaviour, we now know that people search differently depending upon their purpose, whether that’s information-gathering, finding a document or fact or just gaining a feel for a topic. Therefore taxonomy classification is a very important aid to semantic search.

Thanks to middleware, software that puts a sophisticated model between the content and the search interface, you can enhance your searching process and save a lot of time and money, which in the current economic climate is of paramount importance to stay competitive in the marketplace.

At Smart Logic, our Semaphore software is a highly sophisticated piece of middleware for semantic search that not only puts keywords into their appropriate context, but also gives search-navigation features to suit the way that you search.  To save even more time and money, the software can even automate certain repetitive tasks.
