  • REDUCING DATA NOISE USING FREQUENCY ANALYSIS
    Publication number: 20170213252
    Abstract: The subject matter of this document generally relates to reducing noise in aggregated data using frequency analysis. In some implementations, a system for reducing data noise using frequency analysis includes a data storage device that stores content and a network association processor in data communication with the data storage device. The network association processor aggregates, for a given group, content of one or more additional groups that each have overlapping members with the given group. The network association processor reduces noise in the aggregated content of the one or more additional groups using frequency analysis by determining, for each portion of content in the aggregated content, a frequency of occurrence of the portion of content within the aggregated content and filtering, from the aggregated content, each portion of content that has a frequency of occurrence that is less than a threshold.
