Some time ago I wrote a Web Techniques article that discussed NLM's MeSH,
domain vocabularies, and search engines such as WHIRL (which uses pattern
recognition to support similarity searches). My suggestion was we should
integrate the techniques. Use domain experts to build vocabularies, with
machine analysis to continually scan and analyze the literature to surface
new terms that have entered the vocabulary of practitioners.
