Abstract

Keyword search is an easy way to allow inexperienced users to query an information system. It does not need knowledge of specific query language or underlying schema. Recently answering keyword queries on graph structured data has emerged as an important research topic. Many efforts focus on queries on RDF(Resource Description Framework) graphs as RDF has emerged as a viable data model for representing/integrating semistructured, distributed and interconnected data. In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for constructing answer graphs using pruned exploration strategy. We form component structures comprising closely related class and relationship nodes for the keywords and join the identified component structures using appropriate hook nodes. The Class/SubClass relationships available in RDF schema are also utilized for the answer graph construction. The paper illustrates the working of the algorithm using AIFB institute data.
