12/12/2025
This section contains a short guide on how to use the Similar Terms list for extracted concepts.
After you have executed a corpus analysis, and opened the Extracted Concepts list in its tab, you can access the Similar Terms list.
This list displays terms identified through corpus analysis that can enhance your thesaurus. Using PoolParty's similarity algorithms, each term includes a similarity score indicating how closely it matches your existing thesaurus concepts.
Note
The Similarity Score measures the semantic distance between two terms - the lower the score, the closer the term's meaning to your selected concept; higher similarity is represented by lower numerical scores.
