Method and an apparatus to perform feature similarity mapping

摘要

A method and an apparatus to perform feature similarity mapping are presented. In one embodiment, the method includes mapping a set of data items onto a feature similarity matrix (FSM) in a feature similarity system. The FSM has multiple dimensions (generally ten or more). Each item has a number of features and each of the features maps to a distinct matrix node weight. The method may further include positioning of data in the FSM, the position of data corresponding to one or more items having one or more features similar to one or more of the features of the items mapped to FSM nodes in close proximity.
