  • Publication number: 20110184984
    Abstract: A system, computerized method, and program product for visualizing an effect of search terms on search results. This may include a storage device configured to store a computer program and a data source. The data source could include a plurality of search terms that are associated with a first search result factor and a second search result factor. Typically, the first search result factor represents a first search result characteristic and the second relevance factor represents a second search result characteristic. The search terms may be arranged on a coordinate system such that the first relevance factor corresponds to a first axis of the coordinate system and the second relevance factor corresponds to a second axis of the coordinate system. A graphical representation of the search terms may be displayed according to the arrangement of search terms on the coordinate system.

  • Publication number: 20090106239
    Abstract: A system and method for reviewing electronic documents. The method may include the step of using a computing device to rate a document's relevancy to a concept. Depending on the document's relevancy rating, the document could be routed to either substantive review personnel or relevancy review personnel. If the relevancy rating indicates that the document is likely relevant to the concept, the document is routed to substantive review personnel for substantive analysis. If the relevancy rating indicates that the document is likely irrelevant to the concept, the document is routed to relevancy review personnel to confirm whether the document is irrelevant to the concept. If the relevancy review personnel determine that the document is likely relevant to the concept, the document is rerouted to the substantive review personnel for substantive analysis.
