ABSTRACT:
Method of sorting a set of electronic documents, including, determining for each pair of documents {u,v} of the set the degree of correlation ω(u,v) between the documents u and v, determining a function X for projecting between the set of documents and a sphere of the set Rd where d is a positive integer, the function X being such that, for at least one document u, the distance in Rd between two points X(u) and X(v) where v is a document for which there is correlation between the documents u and v, is all the smaller the higher the degree of correlation, performing a sorting operation on at least part of the set of documents as a function of the values taken by the function X.
