ABSTRACT:
The present invention allows an item to automatically be classified using its attributes based on a classification schema and a knowledge base. The invention can include selecting an attribute of the item associated with a source classification system, comparing the value of the attribute to a set of possible attribute values, the possible attributes being associated respectively with a mapping of values from the source classification system to values in a destination classification system, selecting a destination classification for the item based on the comparison if the value of the attribute exists in the mapping, and if the value of the attribute does not exist in the mapping, modifying the value of the attribute, comparing the modified value to the set of possible values, and selecting a second destination classification for the item based on the comparing the modified value if the modified value exists in the mapping.
