Introducing Clustering 2.0

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

Vivisimo introduced high-quality text clustering into the search engine market in the year 2000, after a couple of years of computer science research on new algorithms by the founders at Carnegie Mellon. The research breakthrough was labelling the clusters, i.e, grouping search results into folder topics. Before that breakthrough, search result clusters had poor labels and so the technology was unusable. The technology was first demonstrated on a university website and later at vivisimo.com, with excellent reviews.
