Abstract

A device may analyze text to identify a set of text portions of interest, and may analyze the text to identify a set of terms included in the set of text portions. The device may perform a similarity analysis to determine a similarity score. The similarity score may be determined between each term, included in the set of terms, and each text portion, included in the set of text portions, or the similarity score may be determined between each term and each other term included in the set of terms. The device may determine a set of dominant terms based on performing the similarity analysis. The set of dominant terms may include at least one term with a higher average degree of similarity than at least one other term. The device may provide information that identifies the set of dominant terms.
