Similar document identification using artificial intelligence

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium carrying program instructions thereon, the instructions when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a plurality of documents related to e-discovery;
• determining a seed document from the plurality of documents;
• receiving a search request to search at least one selection of text in the seed document;
• identifying other documents from the plurality of documents based on a similarity between text in the other documents and the at least one selection of text in the seed document;
• and
• generating a graphical user interface that includes a similarity panel that provides similarity data between text in the other documents and the at least one selection of text in the seed document;
• wherein the similarity panel provides:
• a first number of the other documents having text that is identical to the at least one selection of text in the seed document based on a first predetermined similarity threshold;
• a second number of the other documents having text that is similar to the at least one selection of text in the seed document based on a second predetermined similarity threshold;
• and
• an option to search for a subset of the other documents based on a similarity percentage between the at least one selection of text in the seed document and text in the other documents.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• logic encoded in one or more non-transitory computer-readable media for execution by the one or more processors and when executed operable to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a plurality of documents related to e-discovery;
• determining a seed document from the plurality of documents;
• receiving a search request to search at least one selection of text in the seed document;
• identifying other documents from the plurality of documents based on a similarity between text in the other documents and the at least one selection of text in the seed document;
• and
• generating a graphical user interface that includes a similarity panel that provides similarity data between text in the other documents and the at least one selection of text in the seed document;
• wherein the similarity panel provides:
• a first number of the other documents having text that is identical to the at least one selection of text in the seed document based on a first predetermined similarity threshold;
• a second number of the other documents having text that is similar to the at least one selection of text in the seed document based on a second predetermined similarity threshold;
• and
• an option to search for a subset of the other documents based on a similarity percentage between the at least one selection of text in the seed document and text in the other documents.
