About Related Terms

Related terms are a list of nouns or adjectives separated by link words, and shared by at least N documents of your corpus. The link words are identified by an internal, language-specific resource file that you cannot edit.

Related terms are flagged at index time as semantic annotations, based on the configuration of the Related Terms Extractor semantic processor.

Note: You can also add text directly to the dictionary using the dedicated annotation relatedTermCustom when defining annotations (Kind or Name field).

For related terms to display on the Refinements panel at search time, they must meet the following criteria:

  • Not be shared by more than X% of your hits (X=25 by default).

  • Be in at least Y hits (Y=3 by default).

  • Have a corpus frequency of at least Z (Z=0 by default).
