  • Abstract
    We follow a fuzzy relational approach to knowledge representation. With the use of semantic fuzzy relations we define and extract the semantic context out of a set of semantic entities. Based on this, we then proceed to the case of information retrieval and explain how the three participating contexts, namely the context of the query, the context of the document and the context of the user, can be estimated and utilized towards the achievement of more intuitive information services.
