Abstract:

Next generation semantic search engine should offer more than just relevance. It should provide greater insight beyond fixing semantics of simple categories. Fully functional semantic search engine should provide semantic related results for multilingual inquiries. In that light, this paper proposes a combination of Semantic Web, Natural Language Processing and Ontologies to handle multilingual inquiries. In addition, this paper discusses and elaborates on the conceptual design and the implantation of a web based application to manipulate texts in four languages: English, Spanish, Basque, and Arabic.
