OBJECTIVES: to improve the indexing of French-language health web sites by emphasizing the major terms that best describe them. MATERIAL AND METHODS: this study exploits both UMLS knowledge sources and results of previous research. It proposes a method for ranking MeSH terms taken from each record in order of relevance. The method is tested on a corpus of records taken from the French-language health gateway CISMeF. RESULTS: the results of the experiment are compared to those of a preliminary study performed on a corpus taken from MEDLINE. DISCUSSION: the ultimate objective of this work is to interface the developed tools with an automated MeSH term extractor in order to propose an automated indexing engine for French-language health web sites.
