DETERMINING A RELATIONSHIP TYPE BETWEEN DISPARATE ENTITIES

摘要

Methods, systems and computer program products for identifying a relationship between a plurality of entities are described. Members of an entity are segmented into one or more groups based on one or more attributes; one or more of the groups are analyzed to determine a function of the corresponding group. A pair of groups is selected, each group of the pair of groups being from a different entity. A relationship between the selected pair of groups is analyzed to generate a relationship metric, and the relationship between the selected pair of groups is characterized based on the relationship metric.
