Abstract
Methods and systems for analyzing XML documents. The system scans an XML document, identifies different dimensions that span the XML document and detects scoping relationships amongst them. The system uses the dimensional information to create a logical hierarchical scoped dimension analysis model, maps the logical XML tree to this model, and then implements the analytical method over the logical model. The logical model allows both structural features and numeric/non-numeric data to be used for analysis. The analytical method allows users to query irregular structural properties of the XML documents using the XPath navigational API.
