Abstract

A method for searching for related entities using entity co-occurrence is disclosed. Embodiments of the method may be employed in any search system that may include at least one search engine, at least one entity co-occurrence knowledge base, an entity extraction module, and at least an entity indexed corpus. The method may extract and disambiguate entities from search queries by using an entity co-occurrence knowledge base, find extracted entities in an entity indexed corpus and finally present search results as related entities of interest.
