# Restaurant Search #
This work-in-progress represents a prototype semantic search application that I'm developing as part of my master's
thesis at [Keio University](http://www.sfc.keio.ac.jp/). You can get a better understanding of the goals of this system
by referring to the [overview](https://github.com/FooSoft/search-slides/archive/master.zip) presentation. The prototype
is open-source and those who are interested are encouraged to [clone the project](https://github.com/FooSoft/search) and
tinker with it. You may also access a [live snapshot](http://foosoft.net:8080/) of the prototype on my server.
This installation guide is designed with [Ubuntu](http://www.ubuntu.com/)-based distributions in mind (I'm using [Linux
Mint](http://www.linuxmint.com/) for development), but I expect it to be trivial to get this application running on
other flavors of Linux. If you run into any problems, let me know.
