Patent ID: 7529743

Claim:
A system for navigating categorized information, the system comprising: a processor; a memory coupled the processor; computer code loaded into the memory for performing the functions of: displaying a two-dimensional map, the map showing search terms relating to a subject matter, where a position of the search terms corresponds to relationships between all the terms; dynamically changing display of the search terms and position of the search terms relative to each other changes dynamically based on user input into the map, the display corresponding to relative importance of the search terms to the subject matter, the display including any of font color, font size, font transparency, distance between search terms and positioning of the search terms within the map relative to each other; at least some of the search terms corresponding to different branches of a taxonomic tree; in response to input from a user, changing a context a search and selecting a different branch of the taxonomic tree by selecting one of the search terms and without moving upwards in the taxonomic tree to select different search results based on a combination of different branches; displayed separately from the map, a plurality of hyperlinks corresponding to the different search result; a bidirectional neural network underlying the map, wherein the display, the position of the search terms on the map and a selection of the displayed search terms are derived from the neural network; and displaying to the user additional search terms derived from the search results by the neural network.
