20110087668 | CLUSTERING OF NEAR-DUPLICATE DOCUMENTS - Documents likely to be near-duplicates are clustered based on document vectors that represent word-occurrence patterns in a relatively low-dimensional space. Edit distance between documents is defined based on comparing their document vectors. In one process, initial clusters are formed by applying a first edit-distance constraint relative to a root document of each cluster. The initial clusters can be merged subject to a second edit-distance constraint that limits the maximum edit distance between any two documents in the cluster. The second edit-distance constraint can be defined such that whether it is satisfied can be determined by comparing cluster structures rather than individual documents. | 04-14-2011 |
20110087669 | COMPOSITE LOCALITY SENSITIVE HASH BASED PROCESSING OF DOCUMENTS - Reliable identification of highly similar documents allows such documents to be treated as identical for purposes of document analysis. Identification of highly similar documents can be based on a composite hash value or other value for which the likelihood of two documents having the same value is high if and only if the documents have a high degree of similarity. Prior to performing content based analysis, the composite hash value for the current document is determined and compared to composite hash values of previously analyzed documents. If a match is found, the results of the analysis of the previous document can be applied to the current document. If no match is found, the current document is analyzed. | 04-14-2011 |

Based on statistical distributions of document properties (over a large number of documents), different indexes can be defined, and a document router can direct a particular document to one index or another based on the properties of the particular document. In some implementations, certain document properties may be used to identify a nonrelevant document, or garbage document, so that it is either not indexed or assigned to an index dedicated for such documents. | 08-04-2011 |
