Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for pairwise graph querying, merging, and computing for account linking. A service provider may provide an account graph system to identify pairwise similarities between different accounts based on shared data that may be identified through one or more linking characteristics. When providing pairwise graph similarities, a service provider may receive a query identifying two or more accounts and/or an account with a parameter for graph exploration and querying. The service provider may utilize connection, link, or relationship graphs, queried and generated using a graph database, to determine pairwise similarities between the designated seed account and one or more selected accounts. The graph may include vertices for different queried data points and edges connecting such queries, where directionality of the edges or other vectors may be used to identify links or hops between accounts for data querying and exploration.

Abstract: A method for testing burning performance of a dark-colored cigarette using a dark-colored cigarette paper is provided. The dark-colored cigarette paper has a grayscale less than 255. The method includes: simulating, by a robotic arm, a cigarette smoking process and environment; acquiring, by a full-vision camera system, an image of a burn line and ash column region of the dark-colored cigarette; and analyzing a burning performance indicator of the dark-colored cigarette according to coordinate information of the burn line and ash column region. The method is based on a surface reflection characteristic of the dark-colored cigarette paper and a principle of optical reflection to light and highlight an edge of the dark-colored cigarette sample by a light source at a certain angle from a side. In this way, the method forms a chromatic aberration to localize the dark-colored cigarette sample, thereby testing the burning performance of the dark-colored cigarette sample.
