Abstract

A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes determining a starting folder within a file system, computing, for each child folder of the starting folder, a similarity metric indicating a level of similarity to a file, selecting two child folders of the starting folder having greatest similarity metrics, comparing a difference between the greatest similarity metrics of the two child folders to a predetermined threshold, and conditionally selecting the starting folder as a recommended folder to which the file is saved, based on the comparing.
