Abstract
We present a method for retrieving concepts from web search queries and from candidate documents on the web, to help determine which of these documents are semantically (rather than simply key-word wise) related to the query. Our method combines hypotheticalreasoning, which we use both for natural language analysis and for concept extraction, and domain-oriented taxonomies of concepts to guide the system's reasoning.
