Abstract
A method for suggesting related queries to a user query using semantic relationships that are present in informational content stored in public domains. Semantic relationships between named entities are discovered and the named entities are extracted. The entities are indexed according to the relationships. When a user query is received that includes one of the entities, query suggestions are returned to the user based on indexed relationships corresponding to the entity named in the user query.
