Research Abstract

In this study, we achieved multilingualization of web search clustering, which has remarkable ability to generate document clusters according to related terms of web search terms. One of our achievements is extending the prototype system of clustering search system from Japanese to other languages. We performed a series of evaluation experiments to confirm our achievement in increasing search effectiveness.
