Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this project, we developed a system for comparative analysis of Web search information needs between languages. As for the source of collecting information in multiple languages, we focus on search engine suggests as well as question-answer sites in multiple languages. Given a specific query focus, we collect search information needs as well as Web pages and question-answer pairs for those search information needs. Then, developed a system for assisting the process of comparatively analyzing those collected search information needs and the specified Web pages / question-answer pairs between multiple languages and that of discovering differences of culture, concern, and opinions between multiple countries.
