Abstract
A method for executing a computerized query includes receiving a new query from a user device. The query includes natural language text. Based on a type of user, and using an alternative term generator, a selected data model is selected from among pre-determined data models. The selected data model is particular to the type of user. Each of the pre-determined data models includes a corresponding semantic graph data model that establishes semantic relationships between words. Query words in the natural language text are compared to the selected data model using the alternative term generator to find at least one alternative term. The alternative term has a semantic relationship to a query word in query words. The semantic relationship exceeds a first threshold value. The alternative term is substituted for a query word to form a revised query. The revised query is executed on a search engine using the alternative terms.
