Verity, autonomy, whatever, has a what they call a reverse query system called profilenet. A profile is just a query (or I guess more than one query?) and you can setup a bunch of them. Then you supply the document and you will get the matching queries as well as a score. They say its the opposite of doing a search with a query and getting back docs. Instead you do a search with a doc and get back these queries. They claim it can be used for things like taxonomy/classification among other things. I don't know how true this is to a real reverse query system as that would seem to be kind of slow -- my guess is its a bit of an approximation.

May I ask: What IS a profilenet? I ask since this obviously is something that you two hit off on right away, while I haven't heard of..!


Thanks,
