Abstract
A method for topic discovery through structural knowledge in an associative document tree building system includes inserting a set of documents into nodes of a document tree, extracting a tag set of tags from the set of documents and inserting each tag into a different node of a tag tree. The method also includes conducting a search engine query using the tags of the extracted tag set to produce a new set of documents and inserting the new set of documents into nodes of the document tree. The method yet further includes extracting a new tag set of tags from the new set of documents and inserting each tag of the new tag set into a different node of the tag tree. Finally, the method includes displaying at least a portion of each of the document tree and tag tree in a user interface displayed.
