Abstract

An apparatus and method for searching and displaying using cognitive pattern recognition including searching at least one document for at least one search text, wherein the at least one search text is associated with a highlight option; selecting to enable or to disable the highlight option; presenting a quantity of the at least one document in a scaled common image format (CIF); and displaying a selected amount of pages in the scaled common image format (CIF), wherein the at least one search text is shown according to whether the highlight option is enabled or disabled.

Claims (41)

1. A method for searching and displaying using cognitive pattern recognition comprising:

inputting by a user an attribute for searching, wherein the attribute is a unique identifier;

using the attribute for searching at least one document for a plurality of text for searching, wherein a first of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a first highlight option and a second of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a second highlight option such that the first highlight option is different from the second highlight option;

selecting to enable the first highlight option associated with the first of the plurality of text for searching;

selecting to disable the second highlight option associated with the second of the plurality of text for searching; and

displaying only a selected amount of pages, wherein each page of the selected amount of pages comprises the first of the plurality of text for searching which is associated with the first highlight option which is enabled and adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of the selected amount of pages, wherein the user determines the one or more criteria for adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of the selected amount of pages being displayed.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising specifying a quantity of the selected amount to be displayed.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selected amount is displayed in a scaled common image format (CIF).

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising adding a visual distinction to all pages of the selected amount.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first highlight option comprises a color differentiation added to at least one of the plurality of text for searching.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the searching at least one document is based on a special definition.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the special definition is a list of predefined synonyms.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the special definition is a list of predefined antonyms.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selected amount of pages is from a single document.

10. A method for searching and displaying using cognitive pattern recognition comprising:

inputting by a user an attribute for searching, wherein the attribute is a unique identifier;

using the attribute for searching at least one document for a plurality of text for searching, wherein a first of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a first highlight option and a second of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a second highlight option such that the first highlight option is different from the second highlight option;

selecting to enable the first highlight option associated with the first of the plurality of text for searching;

selecting to disable the second highlight option associated with the second of the plurality of text for searching;

adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of a selected amount of pages; and

displaying only the selected amount of pages in a scaled common image format (CIF), and wherein each page of the selected amount comprises the first of the plurality of text for searching which is associated with the first highlight option which is enabled, wherein the user determines the one or more criteria for adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of the selected amount of pages being displayed.

11. An apparatus for searching and displaying using cognitive pattern recognition, the apparatus comprising a processor and a memory, the memory containing program code executable by the processor for performing the following:

inputting by a user an attribute for searching, wherein the attribute is a unique identifier;

using the attribute for searching at least one document for a plurality of text for searching, wherein a first of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a first highlight option and a second of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a second highlight option such that the first highlight option is different from the second highlight option;

selecting to enable the first highlight option associated with the first of the plurality of text for searching;

selecting to disable the second highlight option associated with the second of the plurality of text for searching; and

displaying only a selected amount of pages, wherein each page of the selected amount of pages comprises the first of the plurality of text for searching which is associated with the first highlight option which is enabled and adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of the selected amount of pages, wherein the user determines the one or more criteria for adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of the selected amount of pages being displayed.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , further comprising specifying a quantity of the selected amount to be displayed.

13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the selected amount is displayed in a scaled common image format (CIF).

14. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the memory further comprising program code for adding a visual distinction to all pages of the selected amount.

15. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the first highlight option comprises a color differentiation added to at least one of the plurality of text for searching.

16. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the searching at least one document is based on one or more of the following: an attribute, an attribute range or a special definition.

17. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the special definition is a list of predefined synonyms.

18. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the special definition is a list of predefined antonyms.

19. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the selected amount of pages is from a single document.

20. An apparatus for searching and displaying using cognitive pattern recognition, the apparatus comprising a processor and a memory, the memory containing program code executable by the processor for performing the following:

inputting by a user an attribute for searching, wherein the attribute is a unique identifier;

using the attribute for searching at least one document for a plurality of text for searching, wherein a first of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a first highlight option and a second of the plurality of text for searching is associated with a second highlight option such that the first highlight option is different from the second highlight option;

selecting to enable the first highlight option associated with the first of the plurality of text for searching;

selecting to disable the second highlight option associated with the second of the plurality of text for searching;

adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of a selected amount of pages; and displaying only the selected amount of pages in a scaled common image format (CIF), and wherein each page of the selected amount comprises the first of the plurality of text for searching which is associated with the first highlight option which is enabled, wherein the user determines the one or more criteria for adding a visual distinction to one or more pages of the selected amount of pages being displayed.
