Abstract
A computer system uses a search engine to search a dataset using an initial query provided by a user and thereby to produce initial search results. The system enables the user to select portions of the initial search results. The system identifies metadata associated with the selected portions, and displays information representing that metadata in a form that is easily understandable by a person not trained in the annotation system in which the search results are encoded. The user may instruct the system to add one or more of the displayed metadata elements to the initial query, in response to which the system may add the specified metadata elements to the initial query to produce a modified query. The system may search the dataset using the modified query and thereby produce modified search results. The process may be repeated as desired by the user to further refine the search results.
