Abstract

Aspects of the present invention provide a tool for retrieving data in response to a query in any format. In an embodiment, each query term of the query is analyzed to determine whether it corresponds to either a domain keyword or a formula designator. If a formula designator is retrieved, each formula term associated with the formula designator is mapped to a domain keyword. Each of the domain keywords, the formula designators, and the mapped formula terms are boosted. A dataset is searched using a structured search query that includes all boosted terms, as well as any remaining query terms that do not correspond to one of the boosted terms.
