Methods and systems for automatic evaluation of electronic discovery review and productions

Techniques are provided for automatic sampling evaluation. An automatic sampling evaluation system enables users to evaluate convergence of one or more search processes. For example, given a set of searches that were validated by human review, a system can implement a retrieval process that samples one or more non-retrieved collections. Each individual document's similarity in the one or more non-retrieved collections is automatically evaluated to other documents in any retrieved sets. Given a goal of achieving a high recall, documents with high similarity can then be analyzed for additional noun phrases that may be used for a next iteration of a search. Convergence can be expected if the information gain in the new feedback loop is less than previous iterations, and if the additional documents identified are below a certain threshold document count.
