Publication number: 20220414153Abstract: A document management system analyzes document clauses using document clause clusters. The document management system uses measures of similarity between document clauses from different documents to assign clauses to clause clusters. Clause clusters may be used to perform various analyses, such as to assign clauses a classification corresponding to a relevant clause cluster. The document management system provides analyses performed using document clause clusters for user review, such as to approve clause clusters, classify clause clusters, modify clause clusters, or some combination thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2021Publication date: December 29, 2022Inventors: Kenneth Patrick Slattery, James Kenneth Wagner, JR.
