Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for searching electronic documents. An example method includes receiving a set of electronic documents, wherein each electronic document in the set of electronic documents comprises a set of sentences. The example method further includes generating a contextual index that associates each sentence with one or more of contexts. The example method further includes receiving an electronic search query comprising a plurality of search terms. Subsequently, the example method includes generating a contextual search ranking for a subset of the set of electronic documents based on the search terms and the contextual index.
