Abstract Text This paper presents a three-level structuring of multiword terms basing on lexical inclusion, WordNet similarity and a clustering approach. Term clustering by automatic data analysis methods o?ers an inter- esting way of organizing a domainÕs knowledge structure, useful for several information-oriented tasks like science and technology watch, textmining, computer-assisted ontology population, Question Answering (Q–A). This paper explores how this three-level term structuring brings to light the knowledge structures from a corpus of genomics and compares the mapping of the domain topics against a hand-built ontology (the GENIA ontology). Ways of integrating the results into a Q–A system are discussed.
