ABSTRACT:
A method of providing an automated classifier for 3D CAD models wherein the method provides an algorithm for learning new classifications. The method enables existing model comparison algorithms to adapt to different classifications that are relevant in many engineering applications. This ability to adapt to different classifications allows greater flexibility in data searching and data mining of engineering data.
