Information Retrieval Systems Supporting Arabic Language

This project designed to help performing sentences based search instead of matching keywords, results will be more accurate and similar to human comprehensive search result based.The project data based on Mysql database, written I Java programming language,based on number of IR libraries. The system spitted in two project (distributed System) as follow. The indexer project: which parsing the Mysql database to be processed by the Analyzer (tokenizing ,filtering Steaming) then to store into an index file.The Searcher project which apply the input keyword to the same Analyzer applied for the indexer, then to be matched with the indexed file, then to return the matched data into Web-Pages.The IR system can return accurate search result that could ordered by percentage of relevant,thanks to using the Steamer module, by apply systematic roles on each word, to return it to its infinitive (grammatically),a new Steamer module was developed to support Arabic language ,which is still a developing topic in the area of IR Systems the project implements a full object oriented design using some advanced design theories such MVC (Model View Control and DAO (Data Access Object), multi tier design.
