Claim One:
1. A semantic search system using a semantic ranking scheme comprising: an ontology analyzer analyzing ontology data related to a search target to determine a weight value of each property according to a weighing method for property; a semantic path extractor extracting all the semantic paths between resources and query keywords and determining a weight value of each extracted semantic path according to the semantic path weight value determination scheme by using the weight value of each property; a relevant resource searcher traversing an instance graph of ontology based on a semantic path having a pre-set length and weight value of more than an expectation level to search resources that have a semantic relationship with the query keywords and are declared as a type presented in the query; and a semantic relevance ranker selecting a top-k results having the highest rank from among the candidate results extracted by the relevant resource researcher by using a relevance scoring function.
