  • Publication number: 20250104107
    Abstract: A survey distribution system receives a selection of a first subset of a user population. For example, an administrator of the system may select one or more user attributes of the users among the user population. In response, the survey distribution system identified the first subset of users based on the selected attributes. In some example embodiments, the administrator of the system may additionally define a maximum or minimum number of users to be exposed to the content, as well as targeting parameters for the content, such as a period of time in which to distribute the content to the first subset of users, as well as location criteria, such that the content may only be distributed to users located in specific areas.

  • Publication number: 20070239694
    Abstract: A method for analyzing, querying, and mining graph databases using subgraph and similarity querying. An index structure, known as a closure tree, is defined for topological summarization of a set of graphs. In addition, a significance model is created in which the graphs are transformed into histograms of primitive components. Finally, connected substructures or clusters, comprising paths or trees, are detected in networks found in the graph databases using a random walk technique and a repeated random walk technique.
