SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF SEARCHING THROUGH THE USE OF INQUIRIES WRITTEN IN ANOTHER CHARACTER SET AND / OR IN ANY LANGUAGE OTHER THAN THE TARGET PAGES
Methods and apparatus consistent with the invention allow a user to submit an ambiguous search query and to receive relevant search results. Queries can be expressed using character sets and/or languages that are different from the character set and/or language of at least some of the data that is to be searched. A translation between these character sets and/or languages can be performed by examining the use of terms in aligned text. Probabilities can be associated with each possible translation. Refinements can be made to these probabilities by examining user interactions with the search results.
