Abstract
The present invention provides a method and system delivering graph-based metric to measure a similarity between weighted sets of classifications codes (presented as nodes) defined on hierarchical taxonomy trees. The suggested method is applied to find company peers in a particular domain, e.g., the IP domain based on a company patent portfolio. The suggested method may be applied to other domains that include hierarchical classifications such as trademarks, legal documents, scientific papers, lawsuits etc.
