Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-executable instructions for identifying a document are described. A method includes receiving a query from a graphical user interface having one or more concepts, normalizing a set of terms or concepts in the query to create a normalized query, comparing the normalized query to a set of document centric concept profiles associated with a set of documents in a corpus, where each document centric concept includes a plurality of concepts and at least one reference value for each concept, where the reference value is calculated by tabulating the number of times a document associated with one of the document centric concept profiles is cited by a citing instance for the concept, and surfacing a document from the corpus with the highest reference value for the concept.
