Is it the same as "query expansion"? How does a "standard SKOS query reformulation service" work? > Well I don't know in absolute, but for the sake of the argument I assume it's the same. A "query reformulation service" would for instance take a (query) concept as input, and deliver a bunch of specialized concepts to re-send against a query engine. "standard" here that he would use standard SKOS information, e.g. skos:broader Cheers, Antoine
