Abstract

Retrieving data from large-scale databases often leads to plethoric answers. To overcome this problem, we propose an approach which selects a set of predicates that the user may use for intensifying his/her query. These predicates are selected among predefined ones according principally to their degree of semantic correlation with the initial query in order to avoid a deep modification of its semantic scope.
