A system and method for producing semantically-rich representations of texts to amplify and sharpen the interpretations of texts. The method relies on the fact that there is a substantial amount of semantic content associated with most text strings that is not explicit in those strings, or in the mere statistical co-occurrence of the strings with other strings, but which is nevertheless extremely relevant to the text. This additional information is used to both sharpen the representations derived directly from the text string, and also to augment the representation with content that, while not explicitly mentioned in the string, is implicit in the text and, if made explicit, can be used to support the performance of text processing applications including document indexing and retrieval, document classification, document routing, document summarization, and document tagging. These enhancements may be used to support down-stream processing, such as automated document reading and understanding, online advertising placement, electronic commerce, corporate knowledge management, and business and government intelligence applications.
