Abstract: Information retrieval is the main task to extract relevant information from documents. Mostly, the information retrieval system is based on the keyword approach to extract the knowledge of relevant documents. The experiment shows the ontology can improve the result to overcome the weakness of keyword approach. Ontology implementation method is based on phrase formation and semantic relationships between words. This study tested 10 Malay documents using ontology to retrieve information. The results obtained were compared with the result obtained from manual information retrieval done by experts for precision and recall measure. In this study, there are three semantic relationships between words that are capable of expressing knowledge in documents. They are taxonomy relationship, attribute relationship and non-taxonomy relationship. The relationship of ontology can be formed by using taxonomy relationships algorithm, attribute relationships algorithm and non-taxonomy relationships algorithm based on the linguistic rules of the Malay language. The result of precision and recall for this experiment shows that the ontology approach can enhance the performance of information retrieval from the relevant documents.
