Computer-implemented system and method for placing groups of document clusters into a display
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented system for placing groups of document clusters into a display, comprising:
- a placement module to place one or more spines of document clusters into a display, wherein at least one of the document clusters for each placed spine is designated as an anchor cluster;
a spine selection module to compare at least one of the unplaced spines with each of the placed spines in the display and to identify one of the placed spines most similar to the unplaced spine;
a cluster selection module to compare the document clusters of the unplaced spine with the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine and to identify the cluster most similar to the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine; and
a grafting module to graft the most similar cluster of the unplaced spine to the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine.

Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for placing groups of document clusters into a display is provided. One or more spines of document clusters are placed into a display and at least one of the document clusters for each placed spine is designated as an anchor cluster. At least one of the unplaced spines is compared with each of the placed spines in the display and one of the placed spines most similar to the unplaced spine is identified. The document clusters of the unplaced spine are compared with the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine and the cluster on the unplaced spine that is most similar to the anchor cluster on the most similar placed spine is identified. The most similar cluster of the unplaced spine is grafted to the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine.

11. A computer-implemented method for placing groups of document clusters into a display, comprising the steps of:
-
placing one or more spines of document clusters into a display, wherein at least one of the document clusters for each placed spine is designated as an anchor cluster; comparing at least one of the unplaced spines with each of the placed spines in the display and identifying one of the placed spines most similar to the unplaced spine; comparing the document clusters of the unplaced spine with the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine and identifying the cluster on the unplaced spine that is most similar to the anchor cluster on the most similar placed spine; and grafting the most similar cluster of the unplaced spine to the anchor cluster of the most similar placed spine. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
