http://www.wlrk.com/webdocs/wlrknew/AttorneyPubs/WLRK.23339.14.pdf

Gordon V. Cormack, of University of Waterloo and Maura R. Grossman of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz create a tremendous overview of Technology-Assisted Review "TAR" and get to the core of the key issues. The often is debate about what is Predictive Coding and the effectiveness of each TAR method. The most popular choice is Relativity which uses a concept cluster method for Predictive Coding. Gordon and Maura get under the hood and explain two paths to better understand the impact on discovery.
