Structural Queries in Electronic Corpora

We present a methodology for automatically constructing structural hyperlinks in electronic technical corpora. A structural hyperlink connects components of a document that have specified structural properties with word-based content similarity. Our approach enables queries that may be posed in terms of keywords, as well as structural segments such as definitions, figures, etc.
