PATTERN RECOGNITION

摘要

A method for pattern recognition performed by a physical computing system (100) includes, with the physical computing system (100), structuring data as a bi-partite graph (200), a set of instance nodes (214) within the graph (200) representing instances within the data and a set of property nodes (216) within the graph (200) representing properties of the instances, edges (218) between the instance nodes (214) and the property nodes (216) representing values of the properties, with the physical computing system (100), assigning a transition probability function (302, 402) to each of the instance nodes (214) and to each of the property nodes (216), and with the physical computing system (100), applying a random walker to the graph (200), the random walker utilizing the transition probability functions (302, 402).
