Method and system for exemplar learning for templatizing documents across data sources

Abstract

A system and method for templatizing documents across data sources is disclosed. The system includes a scanner to scan a plurality of files to retrieve a plurality of textual content. The system includes a pre-processor module to refine an efficacy corresponding to the scanned plurality of files by using a classifier to identify textual content with a similar template. The system includes an extraction module to extract a plurality of common sequences and sub-sequences from the plurality of files. The system includes a ranking module to rank the plurality of common sequences and sub-sequences based on a score. The system includes a feature vector generating module to generate a feature vector from the plurality of common sequences and sub-sequences. The system includes a determining module to determine a threshold value for the classifier thereby developing the classifier automatically to search for positive files with similar templates in the organization.
