Abstract:
1. A computerized method for predicting one or more desired properties of a relationship between external and internal nodes based on a selected group of relationships between internal nodes and other nodes about which it is known whether the relationships have the one or more desired properties, the method comprising: storing in one or more data structures a first data set regarding relationships between external nodes and internal nodes and a second data set regarding relationships between internal nodes and other nodes in a selected group, each data set having one or more data items representing one or more events relating to or attributes of each relationship in the data set, the second data set including one or more types of data items not included in the first data set; virtualizing the second data set regarding relationships between internal nodes into a modeled second data set after the first data set regarding relationships between internal and external nodes at least by eliminating from the second data set the one or more data item types not included in the first data set; modeling the virtualized second data set to identify from the modeled second data one or more modeled events or attributes of relationships between internal nodes and other nodes in the selected group that are statistically likely to identify relationships that have one or more desired properties; and predicting which of the relationships between internal and external nodes are statistically likely to have the one or more desired properties based on the identified one or more modeled events or attributes and the one or more events or attributes in the first data set.
