RAKE (Rapid Automatic Keyword Extraction)

RAKE (Rapid Automatic Keyword Extraction) is a method used to identify important words or phrases within a text. It works by analyzing the text to find frequently occurring words that are not common stop words (like "and" or "the") and then combining these into key phrases that best capture the main topics. This process helps quickly extract relevant keywords from large documents, making it easier to understand the main ideas or to organize information efficiently. RAKE is fast, language-independent, and useful for summarizing or indexing texts automatically.
