Abstract

Reports on the design and implementation of the information searching and retrieval software, PBS (Parsing, Boolean recognition, Stemming) for the front end OAK 2, a new version of OAK developed at Toronto Univ. OAK 2 is a research tool for user behaviour studies. PBS receives natural language search statements from an end user and identifies search facets and implied Boolean logic operators
