Publication number: 20170083783Abstract: In an approach to analyzing a path on a graph, a computer receives a graph comprising a plurality of vertices and edges, each edge linking two vertices. The computer, for each one of said plurality of vertices, analyzes edges linked to said one of plurality of vertices to determine a number of outbound links from said one of plurality of vertices, orders said edges, and assigns a value to each ordered edge. The computer, for the graph, receives a path comprising a plurality of edges linking two of said plurality of vertices through at least one other of said plurality of vertices, encodes said path, the encoding using said number of outbound links and said assigned values of each of said one or more edges linking said two of said plurality of vertices, compresses the encoded path, and analyzes said path on said graph using said compressed, encoded path.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 17, 2015Publication date: March 23, 2017Inventor: Raymond S. Glover

Publication number: 20170084064Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for graphing networks. In one embodiment, a dampening heuristic is utilized to graph networks to increase their stability. Nodes are visualized by finding local and global minima and equilibrium positions. Factors such as the influence of neighboring nodes; attraction and repulsion phases; and dynamism of complex networks are addressed by embodiments of the present invention. The stability of nodes are measured quantitatively using vectors, degree of influence of neighboring nodes on other nodes, and updating dampening heuristics.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2016Publication date: March 23, 2017Inventor: Raymond S.

Patent number: 9405748Abstract: A method for probabilistically finding the connected components of an undirected graph. The method includes identifying a first edge, having a first and second vertex, and inserting information detailing the first and second vertex of the first edge into a bloom filter associated with a root node of a bloom filter data structure. A first node, connected to the root node, is created, comprising an associated bloom filter containing information associated with the first and second vertex of the first edge. The method includes identifying a second edge, having a first and second vertex, and inserting information detailing the first and second vertex of the second edge into a bloom filter associated with the root node of the bloom filter data structure. A second node, connected to the root node, is created, comprising an associated bloom filter containing information associated with the first and second vertex of the second edge.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2014Date of Patent: August 2, 2016Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Raymond S.
