Keyword Based Semantic Search for Mobile Data

Most of the mobile platforms provide a keyword based full text search (FTS) for users to find what they want. However, FTS has difficulties in dealing with the cases where a user cannot remember the exact keywords about target data or the number of search results is too many. To overcome these limitations of FTS, we propose a semantically enhanced method of searching for data on mobile devices along with mobile ontology. Experimental results of the proposed method show that our method provides accurate search results and is suitable for a mobile environment.
