  • Method for displaying search results
    Patent number: 8805842
    Abstract: Methods and systems for presenting document search results to a user. A user enters search terms to be matched with indicators mentioned in documents from a specific corpus of documents. The search results, which are the documents with indicators or content that match the search terms, are provided to the user using a user interface. Each document in the search results are represented by a marker on a map in the user interface. Other indicators which appear with the searched for indicators in the documents are also mapped to the user interface. Documents with similar indicators in their content are clustered together in the map and the markers which represent them are color coded to differentiate them from markers belonging to other clusters.
