Free IBM-Yahoo Search Software

Please find the free download of the IBM & Yahoo search engine, OmniFind Yahoo Edition, @ omnifind.ibm.yahoo.com.

It has a small footprint and can run on a laptop, has incremental indexing, support for 200+ document types, support for 30 languages and linguistic features such as synonym detection, spelling correction, lemmatization, stemming and a "did you mean" feature that suggests alternative queries. The relevance ranking is adjustable. It does not rely on link analysis, instead it uses OmniFind relevance ranking algorithms.

It is based on the Lucenet open source search engine and is meant to be an entry point to IBM's suite of OmniFind search software which includes security, authentication and a larger document capacity. The expanded OmniFind information access platform includes additional capabilities such as security, analytics, semantic search (OmniFind Enterprise Edition); customer service features such as navigation, natural language queries, more reporting tools (Discovery Edition); better data plus content integration with metadata management and information as a service (Information Server); or a variety of problem- targeting custom applications that include more advanced features (Master Information Solutions).
