what Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA)

Post subject:  what Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA)

Does SQL 2005 offer any tools to perform Latent Semantic Analysis on large data sets? Say I have millions of daily search queries and I'd like to link queries to one another based on semantic content with a goal of mapping them to larger "categories" . One way of doing this is to compare word frequency and proximity to construct a semantic "weight space". This is the approach generally used in LSA.

Anyone using SQL 2005 for this? Anyone see a way it could be done?
