Abstract
Techniques include updating a semantic search function with a custom ontology, the semantic search function initially supporting a separate ontology having been used to enrich a corpus. The custom ontology is used to augment input of a search query for the semantic search function, thereby providing a custom user experience for searching the corpus.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- updating a semantic search function with a custom ontology, the semantic search function initially supporting a separate ontology having been used to enrich a corpus;
- and
- using the custom ontology to augment input of a search query for the semantic search function, thereby providing a custom user experience for searching the corpus.
A system comprising:
- a memory having computer readable instructions;
- and
- one or more processors for executing the computer readable instructions, the computer readable instructions controlling the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- updating a semantic search function with a custom ontology, the semantic search function initially supporting a separate ontology having been used to enrich a corpus;
- and
- using the custom ontology to augment input of a search query for the semantic search function, thereby providing a custom user experience for searching the corpus.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- updating a semantic search function with a custom ontology, the semantic search function initially supporting a separate ontology having been used to enrich a corpus;
- and
- using the custom ontology to augment input of a search query for the semantic search function, thereby providing a custom user experience for searching the corpus.
