Abstract

A method for accessing a file system including computing a first numerical similarity score for a first stored document and a second numerical similarity score for a second stored document by comparing a plurality of weighted active terms with a plurality of weighted indexed terms, determining a document order of the first stored document followed by the second stored document based on the first numerical similarity score exceeding the second numerical similarity score, generating a list of similar documents including the first stored document followed by the second stored document based on the document order, and displaying, in a file system interface and on the computer display, the list of similar documents while an active document is open in an active document interface.
