Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for generating clusters for placement into a display is provided. A set of clusters is generated from a document set. A single cluster of related documents from the document set is obtained and at least one new cluster is added. One such document in the set is compared to the cluster. A difference in distance between the document and a common origin and the cluster and the common origin is determined. The document is designated as the new cluster when the difference fails to satisfy a predetermined threshold. One or more cluster spines each having two or more clusters placed along a vector are placed into a display. The clusters along each spine are identified as similar and the clusters of one such spine are also similar to further clusters located along a further spine having a small cosine rotation from that cluster spine.
