Abstract
Systems and methods for managing content provenance are provided. A network system accesses a plurality of documents. The plurality of documents is then hashed to identify one or more content features within each of the documents. In one embodiment, the hash is a MinHash. The network system compares the content features of each of the plurality of documents to determine a similarity score between each of the plurality of documents. In one embodiment, the similarly score is a Jaccard score. The network system then clusters the plurality of documents into one or more clusters based on the similarity score of each of the plurality of documents. In one embodiment, the clustering is performed using DBSCAN. DBSCAN can be iteratively performed with decreasing epsilon values to derive clusters of related but relatively dissimilar documents. The clustering information associated with the clusters are stored for use during runtime.
