Abstract: A computer-implemented method for pairing a new document to a document from a plurality of documents. Embodiments include, for each of the new document and the plurality of documents, generating a vector of terms of interest uniquely associated with a document of the new document and the plurality of documents. For each term of interest, an associated element value of the vector is assigned as zero if the term of interest does not occur in the document and one otherwise. The method also includes, for each document from the plurality of documents, determining a similarity between the vectors. The method also includes selecting a document from the plurality of documents as related to the new document if the similarity between the vector for the new document and the vector for the document from the plurality of documents is greater than or equal to a threshold value.
