DISPLAYING RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ELECTRONICALLY STORED INFORMATION TO PROVIDE CLASSIFICATION SUGGESTIONS VIA NEAREST NEIGHBOR

摘要

A system (11) and method (40) for providing reference documents (14b) as a suggestion for classifying uncoded documents (14a) is provided. Reference electronically stored information items (14b) and a set of uncoded electronically stored information items (14a) are designated. Each of the reference information items are previously classified. At least one uncoded electronically stored information item (14a) is compared with the reference electronically stored information items (14b). One or more of the reference electronically stored information items (14b) similar to the at least one uncoded electronically stored information items (14a) are identified. Relationships are depicted between the at least one uncoded electronically stored information item (14a) and the similar reference electronically stored information items (14b) for classifying the at least one uncoded electronically stored information item (14a).
