In order to represent this data statistically they use a number of techniques, simplifying the data to create a ' bag of words ', weighting ( the second instance of the word love in a sentence does not provide as much information as the first ) and categorising this ' bag ' of information allowing it to be subsequently reported against, without human intervention.
