Abstract
In an approach to automating multilingual indexing, a computer receives text of a conversation between at least two users. The computer detects at least one language associated with the text. The computer determines whether the language associated with the text is detected with a confidence level that exceeds a threshold. The computer retrieves text from one or more previous conversations between the two users. The computer detects at least one language associated with the text. The computer determines whether the at least one language associated with the text is detected with a confidence level that exceeds a pre-defined threshold. The computer analyzes the text using at least one of the detected languages to create one or more terms. The computer indexes the one or more terms and stores a boost value associated with each of the one or more indexed terms corresponding to confidence level of the detected language.
