Abstract

A server device may receive first label information regarding a first cluster that includes information identifying a first set of documents, where the first label information regarding the first cluster includes a first set of labels that are associated with the first cluster, and second label information regarding a second cluster that includes information identifying a second set of documents, where the second label information regarding the second cluster includes a second set of labels that are associated with the second cluster, where the second set of documents is different from the first set of documents. The server device may determine that the first and second clusters are semantically similar, which may include determining whether a similarity of the first and second clusters is above a similarity threshold.
