Abstract: A topical cluster hierarchy (TCH) is constructed by recursive subclustering of document clusters until a termination condition is detected. The clusters have centroids of topic proximity with respect to at least one user-specified topic. Subclustering starts after thresholds of minimal cluster topic proximity or minimal cluster coherence are met, thus avoiding processing of low-utility clusters. Subclustering terminates when sufficient topic proximity, coherence, or cluster depth is reached. A tool utilizes the TCH to control topic-directed searching, topic-directed filtering, analyzing, summarizing, or categorizing, of documents.

Abstract: A weighted multicategory querying (WMQ) tool generates alternates of an initial query through spelling correction, grammar correction, natural language processing, ambiguous term resolution, term normalization, keyword reordering, synonyms, and similar terms. The WMQ tool generates additional queries in different weighted categories such as keyword combination, query programming language (QPL), metadata, or embedding space. Query result individual topic proximity scores are combined with category weights to calculate a combined topic proximity score, which is employed to rank the query result. Embedding space query weight is increased for queries classified as broad. QPL query weight or metadata query weight is increased for queries which contain part or all of a metadata field name. Language models are leveraged for query generation, topic proximity scoring, or both.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for performing a document search action includes receiving a search request identifying a sample document. A plurality of terms occurring within the sample document is identified. Each term is scored based on a global term frequency of that term within a collection of documents. Each term is then weight based on proximity, within the sample document, of that term to at least one of the other terms of the first plurality of terms. A document search query is created to include a proximity-limiting clause restricting results to include documents that have a highest-weighted term of the first plurality of terms within a threshold distance of another term of the first plurality of terms. The document search query is performed, thereby resulting in identification of a first resulting document.
