Patent ID: 11985037

Abstract:
Systems and methods for social graph data analytics to determine the connectivity between nodes within a community are provided. A user may assign user connectivity values to other members of the community, or connectivity values may be automatically harvested, calculated, or assigned from third parties or based on the frequency of interactions between members of the community. Connectivity values may represent such factors as alignment, reputation, status, and/or influence within a social graph within the network community, or the degree of trust. The paths connecting a first node to a second node may be retrieved, and social graph data analytics may be used to determine a network connectivity value from all or a subset of all of the retrieved paths and/or one or more connectivity statistics value associated with the first node and/or the second node. A parallel computational framework may operate in connection with a key-value store to perform some or all of the computations related to the connectivity determinations. Network connectivity values and/or other social graph data may be outputted to third-party processes and services for use in initiating automatic transactions or making automated network-based or real-world decisions.
