rdfs:comment	Powerset est une entreprise localisée à San Francisco qui développe un moteur de recherche en langage naturel. Son principal actionnaire est Microsoft. En mai 2008, elle a mis à la disposition du public un outil permettant de faire des recherches sur Wikipédia en utilisant une phrase plutôt que des mots-clés pour formuler la requête. (fr) Powerset（パワーセット）とは、アメリカ合衆国のシリコンバレーにあるIT企業であり、または会社が開発している検索エンジンのことである。検索エンジンはまだ公開されていないが、現在では日本語版も開発中である。また、Powerset Labsというサービスがクローズドベータ版で公開された。 (ja) Powerset è un'impresa con sede a San Francisco in California (USA), facente parte della Microsoft.Lavora allo sviluppo di un motore di ricerca con il linguaggio naturale per internet.L'intenzione è di competere con Google e Yahoo, il motore agirebbe tramite domande dell'utente anziché con parole chiave.La sostanziale differenza tra Powerset e Google, per esempio, è che la domanda si formula normalmente (es: Chi è Barack Obama?), come se si stesse parlando con una persona, mentre con un tradizionale motore di ricerca i risultati di questa interrogazione sarebbero scarsi. (it) Powerset 是一家位于加州圣弗朗西斯科的公司，正在开发互联网上的。 Powerset致力于构建一个能回答用户问题的(区别于基于关键字的搜索)。举个例子，当用户输入一个问题，"Which United Statesstate has the highest income tax?"，通常搜索引擎会忽略掉疑问词，进而使用关键字 "state"、 "highest"、"income"和"tax"来搜索。Powerset与之不同，它试图通过自然语言处理来理解问题的本质，并返回含有答案的网页。现在，这家公司正在"构建一个能读入和理解Web所有句子的自然语言搜索引擎"。这家公司从, 之前的Xerox 帕羅奧多研究中心取得自然语言技术的授权。 2008年5月11日，这家公司开放了一个搜索维基百科特定的部分页面的小工具，它使用常用的语句而不是关键字。 2008年7月1日，微软签署协议收购了Powerset。 (zh) Powerset war eine semantische Suchmaschine. Sie versuchte die menschliche Sprache sinnvoll zu interpretieren und so passende Antworten zu finden. Die Maschine war nur auf die englische Sprache ausgelegt und nutzte als Wissensbasis die englischsprachige Wikipedia und den Inhalt der Datenbank . Powerset wurde betrieben vom Start-Up-Unternehmen Powerset mit Sitz in San Francisco. Sie wurde maßgeblich unterstützt von Xerox PARC. Nach einer etwa einjährigen Testphase hatte Powerset seinen Suchdienst am 12. Mai 2008 offiziell gestartet.
