Abstract: An electronic device and method for automatic generation of a sorted list of items related to a seed item comprises a relatedness determinator to compare the seed item with a plurality of further items and to determine a relatedness value for each further item with respect to the seed item. The device also has a clustering engine to cluster the further items by determining a relative relatedness between (among) the further items. Each further item is assigned to one cluster. The device also has a list generator to generate a sorted result list by sorting the further items according to both, their relatedness value and their belonging (or membership) to a cluster in that once an item is added to the sorted list, the relatedness value depending ranking of the further items in that cluster is at least momentary lowered so as to promote adding items of further clusters.
