20080306944 | METHODS, SYSTEMS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR ANALOGY DETECTION AMONG ENTITIES USING RECIPROCAL SIMILARITY MEASURES - Analogies among entities may be detected by obtaining associative counts among the entities and computing similarity measures among given entities and other entities, using the associative counts. First and second entities are then identified as being analogies if the first entity has a strongest similarity measure with respect to the second entity and the second entity also has a strongest similarity measure with respect to the first entity. The similarity measures may be calculated using a normalized entropy inverted among a given entity and other entities. | 12-11-2008 |

20100306227 | METHODS, SYSTEMS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PROVIDING A DISTRIBUTED ASSOCIATIVE MEMORY BASE - Systems, methods and computer program products are provided for a distributed associative memory base. Such methods may include providing a distributed memory base that includes a network of networks of associative memory networks. The memory base may include a network of associative memory networks, a respective associative memory network comprising associations among a respective observer entity and a plurality of observed entities that are observed by the respective observer entity. Ones of the associative memory networks are physically and/or logically independent from other ones of the associative memory networks. Methods include imagining associations from the associative memory base using a plurality of streaming queues that correspond to ones of a plurality of rows of ones of the associative memory networks. | 12-02-2010 |
