Computer-Implemented System and Method for Generating and Placing Cluster Groups

摘要

A computer-implemented system and method for generating and placing cluster groups is provided. A set of clusters each having one or more documents is maintained. A portion of the clusters is assigned to two or more spines. The cluster spines are ordered by cluster length. Those cluster spines that are unique are identified in decreasing cluster length order and placed. One or more of the remaining spines are placed in relation to at least one of the placed unique spines. At least one of the remaining clusters is placed in relation to one or more of the unique placed spines. Groups of clusters are displayed. Each group includes two or more of one such unique placed spine, the remaining spines placed in relation to that placed unique spine; and the remaining clusters placed in relation to the unique placed spine.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented system for generating and placing cluster groups, comprising:
a set of clusters each comprising one or more documents; a display; and a server comprising a central processing unit, memory, an input port to receive the cluster set, and an output port, wherein the central processing unit is configured to:
assign at least a portion of the clusters to two or more spines;order the cluster spines by length;identify those cluster spines that are unique in decreasing length order and place the unique spines;place one or more of the remaining spines in relation to at least one of the placed unique spines;place one or more of the remaining clusters in relation to at least one of the unique placed spines; anddisplay groups of clusters, each group comprising two or more of one such placed unique spine, the remaining spines placed in relation to that placed unique spine; and the remaining clusters placed in relation to the unique placed spine.
