Latent semantic analysis is also known as concept searching.This means that it can search for a meaning rather than just terms that match exactly.For example,if one types in "house" as a search term,the software will search for cottage,hut,domicile,home,property,estate,etc.It uses a neural network to find other terms that are close in meaning to one's search term.
