US Classification:

707737

Abstract:

Systems, methods and articles of manufacture are disclosed for detecting a duplicate document. A plurality of documents may be assigned to categories, each category corresponding to a collection of duplicates, or near duplicate documents. A new document may be received. The new document may be evaluated against each category to determine a similarity score between the new document and each category. The new document may be identified as a duplicate based on the similarity scores and thresholds for each category. An action may then be performed on the duplicate based on duplication rules. The thresholds and duplication rules may be customized by a user.

International Classification:

G06F 15/18

US Classification:

706 12

Abstract:

Systems, methods and articles of manufacture are disclosed for identifying a training document for a content classifier. One or more thresholds may be defined for designating a document as a training document for a content classifier. A plurality of documents may be evaluated to compute a score for each respective document. The score may represent suitability of a document for training the content classifier with respect to a category. The score may be computed based on content of the plurality of documents, metadata of the plurality of documents, link structure of the plurality of documents, user feedback (e. g. , user supplied document tags) received for the plurality of documents, and document metrics received for the plurality of documents. Based on the computed scores, a training document may be selected. The content classifier may be trained using the selected training document.

International Classification:

G06F 1562

US Classification:

395154

Abstract:

A generalized link is provided in a data processing system to enable referencing from a point within an organized hierarchy of an on-line softcopy text, to an arbitrary multimedia object. The multimedia object may be represented by data which is also contained within the softcopy book or alternately which may be separate from the book as a separate file or a separate data base. This enables an author at the time of writing the softcopy book, to specify specific multimedia hardware and software support for the display of multimedia presentations accompanying the text in the book. Provision is made for the author to specify alternate forms of multimedia presentation, where a particular specified multimedia apparatus or supporting software is not present at a workstation. An improved method for dynamically updating a softcopy book to a new edition is also disclosed.
