Abstract
Described are methods and systems related to inferring rules to classify an object to one of one or more target folders. One or more properties of the object to be classified are determined. A first degree of affinity between the object to be classified and the objects of the target folders, having a property identical to the object to be classified, is computed. A second degree of affinity between the object to be classified and the objects within each target folder, having a property identical to the object to be classified, is computed. A total degree of affinity between the object to be classified and each target folder is calculated. A normalized total degree of affinity is calculated by averaging the total degree of affinity across all target folders. The object is moved to a target folder having a highest value of the normalized total degree of affinity.
