similar, and the objects from different groups are dissimilar. This defines an equivalence relation. The similarity is usually based on the distance of the objects. However, sometimes only categorical data are given where distance is meaningless. For

industries require more technologies for individual products (Carree et al. 2000 ). Thus, an automated method is necessary to support experts. In fact, various factors such as patentability, technological similarity, and scope of claims should be
Introduction In several scientific areas—like ecology, information retrieval, machine learning, psychology and scientometrics—the measurement of similarity between objects plays a role. In scientometrics, examples of considered
