Devices and method for scoring data to quickly identify relevant attributes for instant classification

Abstract:

A method for allowing a computer to classify an input containing data. A list of categories is received. A sub list of categories is selected, wherein the sub-list comprises those categories in the list that have corresponding distinct correlation scores above a predetermined value. Input data that tends to over correlate to the classification system is received. A truncated snapshot is generated, the truncated snapshot comprising only attributes from the plurality of input attributes that have corresponding input categories that match categories in the sub-list of categories. The data is classified using the truncated snapshot and the classification system.
