  • Publication number: 20220300538
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for searching for entities based on trust score and geography. The trust score may be calculated between entities including, but not limited to, human users, groups of users, organizations, or businesses/corporations and may take into account a variety of factors, including verification data, network connectivity, publicly available information, ratings data, group/demographic information, location data, and transactions to be performed, among others. A user may search for entities within a certain geographic location that meet a desired trust score. The results of the search may be generated for display on a user device, for example, by generating a map that shows the current location of the user device and the identified entities. The search may be filtered by entering an anticipated activity or transaction to be performed or desired by the user, and thereby returning entities that are associated with the activity or transaction.

  • Publication number: 20200272645
    Abstract: In an environment containing big data, noisy data, and/or unstructured data, it is desirable to identify an entity referenced by input data. The entity can be identified by generating records corresponding to characteristics of the entity based on the input data. These records can be merged when it is determined that more than one record corresponds to the same entity. By doing so it is possible to more easily identify and classify information related to an entity, though such information may have been obtained in a manner that might otherwise be deemed unstructured or noisy. The method can be applied across large sets of data (“big data”) to obtain meaning from data that may otherwise be unclassifiable to a human observer.
