| For unsupervised classification of a heterogeneous document
| collection, the only reliable relationship to devine for keywords
| would be the "aboutness" mentioned in "Lessons on Applying Topic
| Maps" ( and for collections as broad and the WWW, even this fails )

Jason, you're making it impossible to have a meaningful dialogue
here. When you say keyword above, what do you MEAN? What IS a
"keyword" as you use the term? Without knowing that I have no idea
what you are saying above.

(The title of the paper is "The XML Papers", by the way. "Lessons on
applying topic maps" is just the subtitle.)
 
| What about representing both in a topicmap: the "aboutness"
| association and (given standarized vocabularies & thesauri & PSIs)
| more meaningful associations.

That sounds like what we did, but you're not being very precise, so
it's hard to tell.
