| 20100121850 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MINING WEBSITES - Mining of websites that in one embodiment includes obtaining web usage data of user sessions of a website, wherein the website has a hierarchical structure with granular levels and has mapping from each webpage of the website into the hierarchical structure, mapping the user sessions to the hierarchical structure of the website resulting in hierarchical user sessions, initiating an edit distance metrics to determine similarity in the hierarchical user sessions, and clustering similar hierarchical user sessions into groups. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100161785 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MINING WEBSITES - One website mining embodiment is for characterizing first time users of a website, collecting user session data of the users visiting the website and identifying first time visitors, determining features of the first time visitors utilizing the user session data, determining rules utilizing the features of the first time visitors, monitoring actions of the first time visitors on the website, updating the rules utilizing the monitored actions of the first time visitors and recommending web content utilizing the rules to the first time visitor. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100250689 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A FIGURE OF MERIT FOR USE IN TRANSMISSION OF MESSAGES IN A MULTI-LEVEL SECURE ENVIRONMENT - A method and apparatus that generate a figure of merit for use in transmission of messages in a multi-level secure environment. The method may include receiving a message having a data provenance wrapper, examining each data provenance record of the message and any attachments for discrepancies, identifying any discrepancies in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments, generating a figure of merit based on objective and subjective information, substituting the figure of merit for the data provenance information, and transmitting the figure of merit with the message across the security domain. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100250932 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SIMULATING A WORKFLOW AND ANALYZING THE BEHAVIOR OF INFORMATION ASSURANCE ATTRIBUTES THROUGH A DATA PROVIDENCE ARCHITECTURE - A method and apparatus that simulates a workflow and analyzes the behavior of information assurance attributes through a data providence architecture is disclosed. The method may include injecting one or more faults into a simulated workflow, receiving a message in the simulated workflow having a data provenance wrapper, examining each data provenance record of the message and any attachments for discrepancies, identifying any discrepancies in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments; calculating a degree of trust based on any discrepancies identified in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments, analyzing the calculated degree of trust with respect to the one or more injected faults and the information assurance attributes, and outputting the analysis to a user. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100251367 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION ASSURANCE ATTRIBUTES THROUGH A DATA PROVIDENCE ARCHITECTURE - A method and apparatus that provides information assurance attributes through a data providence architecture is disclosed. The method may include receiving a message having a data provenance wrapper, examining each data provenance record of the message and any attachments for discrepancies, identifying any discrepancies in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments; calculating a degree of trust based on any discrepancies identified in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments, and outputting the degree of trust to the user. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100251374 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING AND ANALYZING DEGREE OF TRUST AND INFORMATION ASSURANCE ATTRIBUTES INFORMATION IN A DATA PROVIDENCE ARCHITECTURE WORKFLOW - A method and apparatus that monitors and analyzes degree of trust and information assurance attributes information in a data providence architecture workflow is disclosed. The method may include receiving a message having a data provenance wrapper, examining each data provenance record of the message and any attachments for discrepancies, identifying any discrepancies in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments; calculating a degree of trust based on any discrepancies identified in the examination of each data provenance record of the message and any attachments, and presenting the degree of trust and information assurance attributes information to the user on a display. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100332508 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR EXTRACTING AND ANALYZING ONLINE DISCUSSIONS - Extracting and analyzing online discussions to identify prospects of a subject is provided. The method has steps including initializing queries related to the subject and a set of data sources utilizing subject information and one or more data source names, extracting the discussions from the set of data sources by employing the queries, extracting significant discussions from the extracted discussions by applying discussions quality methods, identifying websites corresponding to the significant discussions; extracting significant websites by applying websites quality methods to the identified websites, determining a website influence of each of the significant websites by determining their corresponding attributes, identifying a discussion influence of each of the significant discussions based on the website influence of each of the corresponding significant websites, and weighting the significant discussions and the significant websites utilizing the discussion influence and the website influence of each of the significant discussions and the significant websites, respectively. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110131595 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ONLINE RECOMMENDATION - A method for recommending videos is presented. The method includes generating a cross-usage matrix based upon a data of video sessions for a plurality of videos, generating a temporal matrix based upon release dates of the plurality of videos, generating a cross-temporal matrix based upon the cross-usage matrix and the temporal matrix, computing a global video rank corresponding to each of the plurality of videos based upon the cross-temporal matrix, generating a similarity score corresponding to each pair of videos in the plurality of videos based upon meta-data of the plurality of videos, and generating a local video rank corresponding to each of the plurality of videos relative to another video in the plurality of videos based upon the generated cross-usage matrix, the computed global video rank and the generated similarity score. | 06-02-2011 |
