  • Patent number: 11848760
    Abstract: In various embodiments, systems, methods, and techniques are disclosed for generating a collection of clusters of related data from a seed. Seeds may be generated based on seed generation strategies or rules. Clusters may be generated by, for example, retrieving a seed, adding the seed to a first cluster, retrieving a clustering strategy or rules, and adding related data and/or data entities to the cluster based on the clustering strategy. Various cluster scores may be generated based on attributes of data in a given cluster. Further, cluster metascores may be generated based on various cluster scores associated with a cluster. Clusters may be ranked based on cluster metascores. Various embodiments may enable an analyst to discover various insights related to data clusters, and may be applicable to various tasks including, for example, tax fraud detection, beaconing malware detection, malware user-agent detection, and/or activity trend detection, among various others.

  • Patent number: 10832218
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve approaches for calculating an attrition value of a population on the probability that attrition will occur within a predefined time period, and additionally, to calculate an individual attrition value of various features of the population based on their contribution to the calculated attrition value of the population. A computer, such as a server, may receive a cohort definition that includes one or more features and corresponding feature values from a third-party data source or client device. A cohort definition defines a subset of users from among the population of users, based on various combinations of features and feature values.
