本研究提出一個以本體論知識架構為基礎的查詢延伸機制。自動化的查詢延伸機制發展已久，並使用在包含網頁搜尋等多種不同的查詢系統中。為了更進一步協助使用者釐清有效的搜尋關鍵字，區分使用者可能的目標領域網頁，自動化查詢延伸機制常結合外在的知識庫或字典，試圖提升搜尋的滿意度以及正確性。在資訊科技領域裡，本體論知識架構被視作一個可交換、明確的語言，它定義了特定領域下的重要概念及其關聯。根據本體論知識架構，查詢延伸機制可利用它的概念以及關聯來作為延伸字彙的依據。本研究實作了以機器建構本體論知識架構的流程，以網際網路上的文件作為資料來源，產出一特定領域的本體論知識架構來。此外，亦探討不同的延伸機制以及字彙選擇依據。自動建構的本體論知識架構將藉由延伸機制的搜尋結果來加以驗證。

This thesis proposes a query expansion mechanism based on ontology. Automatic query expansion has facilitated web pages search in several ways. An external knowledge resource can help user identify the searching domain and efficient keywords. Ontology is taken as the metadata of a knowledge domain. Query could be expanding in different approaches based on ontology. In this research, an ontology learning process is implemented. With no initial ontology as backbone, domain ontology is constructed from World Wild Web document semi-automatically. Three expanding approaches based on concepts and their relations are proposed. Ontology learning result and expanding approaches are evaluated by comparing the different search results in atypical IR system.
