Self organization of a massive document collection

Abstract

This article describes the implementation of a system that is able to organize vast document collections according to textual similarities. It is based on the self-organizing map (SOM) algorithm. As the feature vectors for the documents statistical representations of their vocabularies are used. The main goal in our work has been to scale up the SOM algorithm to be able to deal with large amounts of high-dimensional data. In a practical experiment we mapped 6,840,568 patent abstracts onto a 1,002,240-node SOM. As the feature vectors we used 500-dimensional vectors of stochastic figures obtained as random projections of weighted word histograms.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
