Abstract

Documents written in natural languages constitute a major part of the software engineering lifecycle artifacts. Especially during software maintenance or reverse engineering, semantic information conveyed in these documents can provide important knowledge for the software engineer. In this paper, we present a text mining system capable of populating a software ontology with information detected in documents.
