Abstract
We suggest a new term weighting method based on lexical cohesion in a text. To compute cohesion, we use lexical chain with a new lexical chain disambiguation method considering association between words and characteristics of WordNet. In our experiment, the methods show a better result than traditional term weighting methods such as tf and tf.idf.
