Abstract: An automated technique for tagging documents includes using a semantic tagger to generate an annotation that associates a standard tag with a first text fragment of the user-defined document, wherein the tagger is trained on a standard document annotated with a standard tag, associating the first user-defined tag with a second text fragment of the user-defined document in response to the second text fragment matching a value associated with the first user-defined tag, and establishing a mapping between the standard tag and the first user-defined tag in response to existence of a requisite correlation between the standard tag and the user-defined tag. The technique may further include selecting from the user-defined document a tagged text fragment that is associated with a second user-defined tag, and providing the tagged text fragment and a standard tag associated by the mapping with the second user-defined tag to the tagger as additional training input.
