Hi Puneet, your requirement : "I would like users to be able to write queries in natural language rather than keyword based search."
Is really really vague :( Can you try to help us with some specific example, starting of course from the simplest use cases you have initially in mind ? Moving from keyword based search to natural language is a really complex task. Proceeding step by step can help you. Do you want for example to set up a Q&A basic system ? In that case you should take care of query rewriting. You need basically to identify your base requirement and then build a specific parser for that. You can use triple stores and knowledge bases to enrich both your query and your index, but let's start from the basis, what is your simplest requirement ?
