Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting ranked search results on an interactive graphical user interface based on a semantic matching platform that is configured to apply an ontology are disclosed. In one aspect, a computer system comprising one or more computer readable storage devices configured to store a plurality of computer-executable instructions, a semantic matching platform, one or more network communication systems, and one or more hardware computer processors in communication with the one or more computer readable storage devices to execute the plurality of computer-executable instructions to cause the system to receiving search criteria from a user device, parse the search criteria, determine and rank matched search results, and generating instructions for presentation of a portion of the ranked search results on an interactive graphical user interface configured to be displayed on the user device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for obtaining responses to expressions of interest are disclosed. In one aspect, a computer system comprising computer hardware receives expressions of interest from users, where the expressions of interest comprise expression characteristics. The computer hardware further organizes the expressions of interest based on the expression characteristics to produce expressions of interest. The organized expressions of interest may be presented to one or more entities capable of responding to the organized expressions of interest and/or one or more entities that have an incentive to respond to the organized expressions of interest.
