2. MirrorZen doesn’t understand boolean operators like “and”, “or”.

We would also be making a few upgardes to the current system by Monday midnight IST. But, it should be quite a seamless upgrade.

Also, till now we have received some rocking feedback and aslo some really critical views on MirrorZen. We plan to put in some feedback and some screenshots soon on the web. We would also be blogging on the issues people have raised so far.

We are finally out there having sent a few alpha invites to some people whose opinion would matter a lot to us.

We have sent alpha invites to some among friends and family and some experts for their review. Slowly feedback is trickling in, and some feedback has been beyond what we had anticipated.

We are also removing/modifying the earlier posts, since much has changed since the last posts and we have introduced a detailed FAQ here..

We will send in Invitations on a personal Basis to people whose opinion would matter for us. If you are interested in being one of the early Alpha Testers please drop in a line at alpha@mirrorzen.com.

There are still a lot of complexities with the MirrorZen Engine which we need to resolve but we need your help to make MirrorZen a better experience. Please keep tuned in for more news on this.

]]> http://blog.mirrorzen.com/wp-commentsrss2.php?p=7 Introducing MirrorZen: http://blog.mirrorzen.com/?p=3 http://blog.mirrorzen.com/?p=3#comments Sat, 17 Sep 2005 00:27:33 +0000 Administrator all http://blog.mirrorzen.com/?p=3 MirrorZen is an attempt at reducing the efforts of Search Engine Users to find RELEVANT Information - fast, quick and easy.

With MirrorZen, when a User puts in Boolean Queries similar to what they would have done with regular search engines, the engine then generates questions perfectly related to the keywords. The Engine generates highly specific questions related to the boolean keywords. The obvious benefit the user has with MirrorZen is that there are questions staring at the user instead of links to over 100,000 pages. The user could derive a meaning out of the Question and if he feels that the question is what he was looking for, he goes ahead and clicks on the question to come across the ANSWER and links to pages describing them.

MirrorZen does perfectly well with Natural Language Questions and provides composite answers to the questions as a normal human being would. MirrorZen does not do gimmicks like having human edited Question Banks (it would take 12,500 years for a team our size do it - according to some crazy calculations done in-house) but make use of robust Natural Language Processing and deep Language Semantics. MirrorZen has been designed to be the “The Most Sophisticated Open-Domain Question Answering System” out there.

MirrorZen is probably the first Search Engine Technology Company to originate from India and maybe the first Indian Company to use a blog as a Corporate WebSite.

We are currently in the process of scaling the architecture of MirrorZen - the Crawler, the Indexing Systems, the distributed Indexes, Retrieval Mechanism, Storage, QAG Algorithms, LinkRank and tuning the base Operating Systems.
