Building an Efficient Reverse Dictionary
Sneha P. S, Mrs. S. Kavitha Murugesan
Abstract :
In a traditional forward dictionary, words are mapped to their definitions. In the case of a reverse dictionary, a phrase describing the desired concept is taken as the user input, and returns a set of candidate words that satisfy the input phrase. This research work describes the implementation of an efficient reverse dictionary where the user is also able to find out the actual dictionary definition of those words returned as output and thereby help the user to check the accuracy of the results obtained from the reverse dictionary output. Effectively, a Reverse Dictionary addresses the “word is on the tip of my tongue, but I can’t quite remember it” problem. This work has significant application not only for the general public, particularly those who work closely with words, but also in the general field of conceptual search. This research work proposes a novel approach called “wordster” to create and process the reverse dictionary and also evaluate the retrieval accuracy and runtime response time performance. The wordster approach can provide significant improvements in performance scale without sacrificing the quality of the result
