  • obtaining a query comprising one or more words from a vocabulary having a first dimension;

    transforming the one or more words of the query into a phonetic representation of the one or more words;

    performing a natural language processing operation on the lower-dimension representation, the natural language processing operation comprising determining similarity measures reflecting similarity of the one or more words of the query to a plurality of documents;

    based at least on the similarity measures, selecting a subset of the documents that are relevant to the query; and

    outputting the selected subset of documents in response to the query.
