Abstract: A method and system of generating metadata for a document so that the docume nt may be identified by a subsequent search. A conceptual model is generated fo r the document, wherein the conceptual model indicates one or more concepts th at are recognized in the document. A concept is defined by a plurality of features, each feature being associated with a feature weight. By referencin g the conceptual model, one or more auto-attributes may be assigned to the document. Also, by referencing the conceptual model, the document may be categorized to one or more categories of a categorization taxonomy by assigning one or more auto-categories. The generated metadata, including the  conceptual model, the one or more auto-attributes, and the one or more auto- categories, may be stored in a memory so that the subsequent search may identify the document by examining the generated metadata.
