Indexing is the process of creating a Conceptual Fingerprint from a text. In Collexis, this automated indexing mechanism performs the following steps on the text: removing the stop words, normalizing the text, selecting concepts by comparison with the thesaurus, clustering the concepts and attaching a relative weight to the concepts by means of a set of algorithms and measuring the specificity, similarity and frequency of the concepts.
