Locating relevant differentiators within an associative memory

摘要

LOCATING RELEVANT DIFFERENTIATORS WITHIN AN ASSOCIATIVE A system (100) including an associative memory (102) comprising a plurality of data (104) and a plurality of associations among the plurality of data (106). The plurality of data (104) is collected into associated groups (108). The associative memory (102) is configured to be queried based on at least indirect relationships (110) among the plurality of data (104). The system (100) also includes an input device (114) in communication with the associative memory (102). The input device (114) is configured to receive a query (116) to compare entities (112) in the associative memory (102). The system (100) also includes a coordinator (118) in communication with the associative memory (102). The coordinator (118) is configured to compare the entities (112) to identify a similar attribute value among the entities (112). The coordinator (118) is further configured to identify a differentiator (122) among the entities (112). 104 ASSOCIATIVE PLURALITY OF DATA PLURALITY OF ASSOCIATIONS 106 1 /102 AMONG THE PLURALITY OF DATA ASSOCIATED INDIRECT GROUPS 108 RELATIONSHIPS ENTITIES 112 COORDINATOR DEPTRY 116 L114 DEPTHQUR r 126 INPUT DEVICE LIST OF RELEVANT COMMON ATTRIBUTE ATTRIBUTE VALUES CATEGORY VALUES 136 128 SIMILAR ATTRIBUTE VALUE 120 118 USER DESIGNATED RELEVANCE PLURALITY OF SETS OF 132 ATTRIBUTE CATEGORIES DETERMINED DEPTH [140 RELEVANCE VALUE OR 138 134 VALUES ["142 DIFFERENTIATOR ATTRIBUTE DISPLAY DEVICE 122-/ 124 / VALUE OF A 130 GIVEN ENTITY
