Abstract
The invention relates to a method for mapping topics. The method includes obtaining terms, obtaining tokens from each term, and identifying a first and a second set of topics. Each of the topics represents one or more of the terms. The method further includes identifying first and second topic names for the first and the second sets of topics. For each topic, the tokens associated with the terms assigned to the topic are analyzed for relevance, and a token with a high relevance is selected as the topic name. The method also includes selecting one of the first and one of the second sets of topics to obtain first and second selected topics, determining, based on the one or more terms, a similarity value between each of the first and the second selected topics, and establishing a mapping between similar first and second selected topics.
