I've recently decided it would be a cool thing to add a search engine to my website.
<p>Sure you can get [http://www.google.com|ready] made options, but i'm interested in the guts and the theory on how it all works. I had a look at just a couple of techniques, and discounted an Inverted Index seach because, well, its just too simple.</p>
<p>I wanted something that i could learn something new from, and came across the [http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2003/02/19/engine.html?page=2|Vector] space search algorithm.</p>
<p>My question is, does anyone have any links that could go further to explain in a little more detail the theory and maths behind this? The article is all spelled out well, but i'm after a little more meat.</p>
