Abstract
A method and system for identifying results of a query that includes a type predicate is provided. A search system maintains a collection of facts that includes a triple for each fact and a type table that maps entities of the facts to their corresponding type. The search system uses the type table to speed up the process of identifying the search results when the query includes a non-type query triple and a type query triple. A type query triple is a triple that has a type predicate, rather than a non-type predicate. To execute a query that contains a non-type query triple and a type query triple, the search system identifies the triples of the collection that match the non-type query triple. The search system then uses the type table to determine which of the identified triples match the type query triple for inclusion in the search results.
