The co-author of this program is Olena Medelyan who is also from the University of Waikato. KEA (keyphrase extraction algorithm) is an algorithm for extracting keyphrases from test documents. It can be used either for free indexing or for indexing with a controlled vocabulary. KEA can also be used for automatic tagging. Keywords and keyphrases or multi-word units are widely used in large document collections. Keyphrase indexing is the task of assigning keyphrase to a document. Keywords and keyphrases describe the content of a single document and provide a kind of semantic metadata that is useful for a wide variety of purposes. KEA is implemented in Java and is platform independent. It is an open-source software that is distributed under the GNU General public License.
