Claim 13:
14. A system for scoring combined search results comprising:
a relational database that stores data objects in a non-hierarchical manner; and
one or more computer processors operatively coupled to the relational database, wherein the one or more computer processors are individually or collectively programmed to:
(i) perform a plurality of individual database searches on the data objects, wherein each individual search result comprises a given subset of the data objects and wherein each of the plurality of individual database searches corresponds to a search path traversing from a first subset of data objects stored in said relational database to a second subset of data objects stored in said relational database and wherein said search path is displayed on a graphical user interface (GUI) with a first node representing said first subset of data objects and a second node representing said second subset of data objects, wherein said data objects are stored in defined fixed data structures in said relational database based on a mind map, and wherein each individual search result comprises a given subset of the data objects;
(ii) selecting, via the GUI, a node representing a data set from a plurality of subsets of data objects to add a score, wherein the data set is shared by at least two search paths corresponding to two of the plurality of individual database searches, and generating a combined analysis by merging the plurality of individual database search results to generate a combined search result, wherein the combined search result comprises a combined subset of the data objects from said data set;
(iii) determine and assign a weight value for each of the plurality of individual database searches for calculating scores associated with the combined subset of the data objects; and
(iv) present the combined search result to a user on the GUI, wherein the combined search result comprises the scores associated with the combined subset of the data objects, wherein a score associated with a data object from the combined subset of the data objects is calculated as a weighted sum based at least in part on the weight value assigned to a given individual database search and a count of the data object shown in the combined subset of the data objects.
