Abstract

In one example embodiment, a method is illustrated as including retrieving item data from a plurality of listings, the item data filtered from noise data, constructing at least one base cluster having at least one document with common item data stored in a suffix ordering, compacting the at least one base cluster to create a compacted cluster representation having a reduced duplicate suffix ordering amongst the clusters, and merging the compacted cluster representation to generate a merged cluster, the merging based upon a first overlap value applied to the at least one document with common item data.
