COMPUTER‐AIDED AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF A STRUCTURED DOCUMENTARY LANGUAGE: PRELIMINARY STUDY

Abstract

This is a description of the first stage of an attempt to improve a thesaurus by providing it with new terms derived by computer analysis of semantic proximity between concepts from a large file of 20,000 documents. At the first stage the semantic proximity between concept and core words was established on the level of a set of higher complexity. This set is defined when making the qualitative and quantitative choice of the concepts capable of being grouped into classes. The second stage will be the classification of terms belonging to that coherent set by clustering.
