Patent number: 7805010Abstract: Quantification of the similarity between nodes in multiple electronic classification schemes is provided by automatically identifying relationships and similarities between nodes within and across the electronic classification schemes. Quantifying the similarity between a first node in a first electronic classification scheme and a second node in a second electronic classification scheme involves finding a third node in the first electronic classification scheme, wherein a first product value of an inter-scheme similarity value between the second and third nodes and an intra-scheme similarity value between the first and third nodes is a maximum. A fourth node in the second electronic classification scheme can be found, wherein a second product value of an inter-scheme similarity value between the first and fourth nodes and an intra-scheme similarity value between the second and fourth nodes is a maximum.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2006Date of Patent: September 28, 2010Inventors: Christian Posse, Antonio P Sanfilippo, Banu Gopalan, Roderick M Riensche, Robert L Baddeley

Publication number: 20080025617Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for quantifying the similarity between nodes in a plurality of electronic classification schemes are disclosed according to some aspects. In one embodiment, quantification of the similarity between a first node in a first electronic classification scheme and a second node in a second electronic classification scheme comprises finding a third node among those in the first electronic classification scheme, wherein a first product value of an inter-scheme similarity value between the second and third nodes and an intra-scheme similarity value between the first and third nodes is a maximum. It further comprises finding a fourth node among those in the second electronic classification scheme, wherein a second product value of an inter-scheme similarity value between the first and fourth nodes and an intra-scheme similarity value between the second and fourth nodes is a maximum.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2006Publication date: January 31, 2008Applicant: Battelle Memorial InstituteInventors: Christian Posse, Antonio P.
