8. A method for identifying a set of documents from a document corpus that are potential duplicates of a source document that describe substantially the same subject matter as the source document, the method comprising: obtaining a source document; identifying a list of queries corresponding to the source document; executing each query identified in the list of queries on the document corpus, wherein the execution of each query yields a corresponding results set identifying a set of documents in the document corpus ordered according to the relevance of each document to the executed query; for each document identified in each results set, generating a document score for the identified document based on the identified document's ordinal position in the results set in which the identified document is found; selecting a subset of the identified documents of the results sets, wherein the generated document scores for the documents of the selected subset meet a predetermined selection criteria score threshold, and wherein selecting the subset of the identified documents of the results sets further comprises determining a minimum score for a potential duplicate document from the document corpus that is returned in more than one results set, and including the potential duplicate document in the subset of the identified documents of the results sets in a case where the minimum score meets the predetermined score threshold; and storing the selected subset of identified documents as potential duplicates of the source document in a data store.

The method of claim 8 , further comprising displaying the selected subset of identified documents as potential duplicates of the source document to a user.
