ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present a semantic search technique considering the type of desired Web resources and the semantic relationships between the resources and the query keywords in the ontology. In order to effectively retrieve the most relevant top-k resources, we propose a novel ranking model. To do this, we devise a measure to determine the weight of the semantic relationship. In addition, we consider the number of meaningful semantic relationships between a resource and keywords, the coverage of keywords, and the distinguishability of keywords. Through experiments using real datasets, we observe that our ranking model provides more accurate semantic search results compared to existing ranking models.

Recommendations
Effective ranking and search techniques for Web resources considering semantic relationships
On the Semantic Web, the types of resources and the semantic relationships between resources are defined in an ontology. By using that information, the accuracy of information retrieval can be improved. In this paper, we present effective ranking and ...
SSERank: semantic search engine for page ranking based on the relations weight
Semantic search engines promise to provide more accurate results than current keywords search engines. However, it is useful to exploit ontological relations in search steps. In this paper, we present an approach which automatically exploits the ...
Ranking web sites using domain ontology concepts
Many web search engines retrieve enormous amounts of irrelevant information in answer to users' queries. The semantic web provides a promising approach to improve search operation. For specific domains, ontologies can capture concepts to help machines ...
