Abstract

The rapid growth of digital data and users’ information needs have made the demands for automatic indexing to become more important than before. Indexing based on keyword has proven to be unsuccessful to cater for the current needs. Thus, this paper presents a new approach in creating semantic skolem indexing for multiple documents that automatically index all the documents into single knowledge representation. The skolem indexing matrix will then be incorporated in question answering system to retrieve the answer for users query.
