1. A computer-implemented method for at least one of updating and using a data store of words associated with subject matter categories, comprising:
- comparing, by a computer processor, words of a received document to words of a data store that are tagged with respective indications of subject matter categories to which the words of the data store belong;
for each word of the received document that does not match any of the tagged words of the data store, determining, in a first determining step and by the processor, whether a frequency of the word in the received document meets a frequency threshold; and
for each word for which it is determined in the first determining step that the frequency of the word meets the frequency threshold;
tagging the word, by the processor, as belonging to a subject matter category with which the received document is associated; and
updating the data store, by the processor, to include the word with its tag.
