Peer reviewedCohen, Jonathan D. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1995
A statistical method of drawing index terms or "highlights" from text is presented that uses no stop list, stem or other language- and domain-specific components, allowing operation in any domain or language with minimal modification. Some experimental results are presented, showing operation in six different languages. (67 references)…

Peer reviewedWoodruff, Allison Gyle; Plaunt, Christian – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1994
Presents an algorithm that automatically extracts words and phrases containing geographic place names or characteristics from a text document and uses them as input to database functions that use spatial reasoning to approximate statistically the geoposition referenced in the text. Preliminary results and future work are discussed. (28 references)…
