Abstract: A method and system for clustering a plurality of data elements is provided. According to embodiments of the present invention, a bit vector is generated based on each of the data elements. Bit operations are used to group each data element into a cluster. Clustering may be performed by partition clustering or hierarchical clustering. Embodiments of the present invention cluster data elements such as text documents, audio files, video files, photos, or other data files.

Abstract: A method and system for performing high precision and high recall relevancy searching is provided. According to embodiments of the present invention, a relevance rule is generated based on a user model and language from within one or more relevant and non-relevant documents. A query is created based on the relevance rule wherein the query may be applied to a corpus to identify relevant and non-relevant documents. The relevance rule may be iteratively refined in order to increase the accuracy of the query. The resulting query may be used by a litigator during the discovery phase of a litigation to respond to a request for production.

Abstract: A method and computer program product for comparing documents includes segmenting a judgment matrix into a plurality of information sub-matrices where each submatrix has a plurality of classifications and a plurality of terms relevant to each classification; evaluating a relevance of each term of the plurality of terms with respect to each classification of each information submatrix of the information submatrices; calculating an information spectrum for a first document based upon at least some of the plurality of terms; calculating an information spectrum for a second document based upon at least some of the plurality of terms; and identifying the second document as relevant to the first document based upon a comparison of the calculated information spectrums.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for searching for information. The method includes the step of segmenting a judgement matrix into a plurality of information sub-matrices where each submatrix has a plurality of classifications and a plurality of terms relevant to each classification. The method further includes the steps of evaluating a relevance of each term of the plurality of terms with respect to each classification of each information sub-matrix of the information sub-matrices and calculating an information spectrum for each of a plurality of documents based upon at least some of the plurality of terms. The method further includes the steps of receiving a search request, calculating an information spectrum of the search request based upon at least some of the plurality of terms and identifying at least some documents of the plurality of documents as relevant to the request based upon a comparison of the calculated information spectrums.
