Seven Search Engine Evolutions for '07 72
eldavojohn writes "I found a short but interesting list of predicted evolutions of search engines that will most likely be implemented in 2007. While some are vague and obvious like a better human interactive experience, there are others that are worth looking into like alternative means of indexing and using semantics — not keywords — for matching documents. The author of this list is Dr. Riza Berkan, also the author of 'Fuzzy Systems Design Principles.'"
In 2007? (Score:4, Informative)
Ah, let me just tag this article 'semanticweb'... there, much better now...
As early as 2007? Now I don't really believe that.
It may get partially implemented, and probably only in English.
Maybe Chinese as well.
Most of the other languages will have to wait for quite a while beforehand...
Not to say semantic search is a bad idea or anything... I, for one, would like to see some image-, audio- and video-search based on some kind of semantics, not tags and names... but that'll just have to wait.

5. The first time a search engine will let users evaluate answers
on the spot by displaying uninterrupted and coherent text
snippets, often letting searchers forgo having to click through
to links and saving time.
Both of these have been available for a couple of years: e.g. searching on the single query "semantic web" using CQ web [q-phrase.com], reveals clusters such as these:
fuzzy sets
fuzzy systems
neural networks
set theory
soft computing
aritifical intelligence
control systems
expert systems
And each one of which is linked to a specific page of results using sentences instead of snippets, e.g. for artificial intelligence:
1. This paper will present the foundations of fuzzy systems...noteworthy objections to its use with examples drawn from current research in the field of artificial intelligence.

2. The most obvious implementation for the fuzzy logic is the field of artificial intelligence.

3. Ultimately it will be demonstrated...fuzzy systems makes a viable addition to the field of artificial intelligence and perhaps more generally to formal mathematics.
