| 20110105143 | PROXIMAL RELEVANCY RANKING IN A LAYERED LINKED NODE DATABASE - A system and method for determining node relevancy by proximal weighting and pruning in a layered linked node database, such as that used to represent connections between a set of objects. The weights of connections between nodes in the layered linked node database is used as a distance metric, with propagation semantics determining how the summed relevancy is determined. This is particularly useful for determining, for a given node in a given layer, which nodes in another layer, or on the same layer, are most relevant. In the context of mobile device users, this is particularly useful for dynamically determining which people, places, events etc. are of greatest relevance in a scalable manner. | 05-05-2011 |
