Abstract
Systems, methods and computer readable media for performing a domain-specific metasearch, and obtaining search results therefrom. A metasearch engine capable of accessing generic, web-based search engines and domain-relevant search engines is provided to receive one or more queries inputted by a user, and to search for documents on at least one the generic, web-based search engines and domain-relevant search engines which are relevant to the queries. Raw data search results are fetched in the form of text documents. Relevant data including semantic information are extracted from the raw data search results, and converted to a local format. The relevant data having been converted to the local format may be visualized as a network visualization. Additionally or alternatively, the raw data search results may be ranked and/or filtered based on the linking of the relevant data. Visualization of the raw data having been ranked and/or filtered may be performed in addition to, or alternative to visualization of the network.
