Abstract
Semantic type-ahead suggestions are provided for natural language database searches. The system maintains an index of previous natural language database searches and a sorted prefix map based on words used in previous natural language database searches. The system receives user input for a new search, creates a search list based on the user input and user input synonyms, searches the index using the search list, and creates a candidate match list with matching previous searches in the index. If the system determines that the user input includes a database object reference, it filters out searches in the candidate match list that are associated with a different database object. The system ranks the remaining searches in the candidate match list and displays the top n-ranked previous searches in the candidate match list as type-ahead suggestions. The system repeats the steps for each incremental input character and updates the type-ahead suggestions accordingly.
