Abstract

According to one embodiment, generating a dictionary and determining a co-occurrence context includes accessing a domain corpus comprising articles. Each article corresponds to a particular topic and comprises one or more terms that link to one or more other articles corresponding to one or more other topics. Each topic is designated as a term to yield a dictionary. A co-occurrence context is defined for the domain corpus. At least two terms appearing in the co-occurrence context are considered co-occurring. Co-occurrences among the terms are calculated according to the co-occurrence context.
