ABSTRACT:
A computing system has a data storage device for storing a database including a classified vocabulary of terms. A processor of the apparatus is arranged to associate each term with a number of different categories of data and to associate all terms falling within the same category with a common code identifying a collocation of terms that exemplify that category so that terms in different categories are associated with different codes and can be disambiguated. The processor is arranged to write, directly or indirectly, a classified vocabulary including the terms together with the associated code onto a computer-readable storage medium or to supply an electrical signal via, for example a MODEM or a LAN/WAN. The database may be used in classification of documents, spelling checking of documents and refining of keyword search results.
