In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, each of a plurality of electronic communications is reduced to a corresponding multidimensional vector based on a multi-dimensional vector space. The multi-dimensional vectors represent corresponding electronic documents that have been classified as at least one type of electronic documents. Subsequent electronic documents to be classified are reduced to a corresponding multi-dimensional vector inserted into the multi-dimensional vector space. The electronic documents corresponding to an inserted multi-dimensional vector are classified based upon the proximity of the inserted multi-dimensional vector to at least one previously classified multi-dimensional vectors of the multi-dimensional vector space. | 10-15-2009 |
