Indexing
The Electronic Library v. 20 no. 4 has an interesting paper on automation in indexing. "Obtaining feedback for indexing from highlighted text" by Miguel Villarroel; Pablo de la Fuente; Alberto Pedrero; Jesús Vegas; Joaquín Adiego.
This work presents a method for the adjustment of index weights by processing text that has been highlighted by users.

Highlighted text is supposed to be of special relevance and the method tries to improve the index weights of terms located in these highlighted fragments.
