indexing methods

Among the various algorithms for automated document indexing, the following variations could be considered:
1) use clusters based on number of words sharing similar concepts and their cumulative frequency. ( so this is a histogram based on topic and weights assigned to individual candidates based on the fraction of occurrances of this candidate to the overall occurances of all the words in the cluster. This idea is based on a paper by Document Indexing with a Concept Hierarchy by Gelbukh, Sidorov and Guzman.  However, this variation plans to use existing concepts as detected by clustering functions using any dictionary or ontology to find relevance between index candidates.
One way to improve performance is such that the entire dictionary be in-memory or perhaps those pages that are relevant to the candidates at hand. In order to find the pages, we know the synsets of the words and their hierarchy. Alternatively, we could consider taking only fixed size sections of the dictionary and loading them in memory at a time. This way only the sections can be switched in and out as required for processing.
