SBIR Phase II: Organized Search Results with Document Clustering

这个小企业创新研究二期项目将在文档聚类技术方面取得进展。该公司的专有软件将一长串原始搜索结果转换成有序的分层文件夹，以Windows资源管理器的方式浏览。这个软件可以很容易地查看相关信息，否则这些信息会被隐藏在搜索结果中。它还可以轻松地发现知识：用户一眼就能了解与查询相对应的主要子主题。该公司拥有第一个文档聚类技术，在速度、聚类质量和交互易用性方面都足够好，可以大规模使用。由此产生的软件产品将增强网络、企业和数据库搜索引擎的能力。该市场将包括搜索引擎供应商、系统集成商以及商业、学术和政府的大型组织。

This Small Business Innovation Research Phase II project will produce advances in document clustering technology. The company's proprietary software transforms a long list of raw search results into organized hierarchical folders that are browsed in Windows Explorer style. This software brings into easy view relevant information that otherwise would remain buried in the search results. It also enables effortless knowledge discovery: at a glance, a user learns themain subtopics corresponding to the query. The company has the first document clusteringtechnology good enough for mass use, in terms of speed, quality of the clustering, and ease of interaction. The resultant software product will augment the capabilities of web, enterprise, and database search engines. The market will include search engine vendors, system integrators and large organizations in business, academe, and government.
