Abstract
Various methods and systems for calculating ranks of importance of nodes of an enterprise are described. A plurality of relations may be accessed, wherein each relation of the plurality of relations comprises an indication of two nodes of a plurality of nodes, and an indication of a relationship between the two nodes. A matrix may be created using the plurality of relations. The matrix may be processed using the Perron-Frobenius theorem. The plurality of nodes of the enterprise may be ranked according to importance, wherein each node is either a user or an item.
Claims20
A method of calculating ranks of importance of nodes of an enterprise, the method comprising:
- accessing, by a computer system, a plurality of relations, wherein:
- each relation of the plurality of relations comprises an indication of two nodes of a plurality of nodes, and an indication of a relationship between the two nodes;
- and
- each node is either a user or an item;
- creating, by the computer system, a matrix using the plurality of relations;
- processing, by the computer system, the matrix using the Perron-Frobenius theorem;
- and
- ranking, by the computer system, based on the processing of the matrix, the plurality of nodes according to importance.
A computer program product stored on a computer-readable storage medium for calculating ranks of importance of nodes of an enterprise, the computer program product comprising instructions for:
- accessing a plurality of relations, wherein each relation of the plurality of relations comprises an indication of two nodes of a plurality of nodes, and an indication of a relationship between the two nodes;
- creating a matrix using the plurality of relations;
- processing the matrix of the relations;
- and
- ranking based on the processing of the matrix, the plurality of nodes according to importance, wherein each node of the plurality of nodes is either a user or an item.
A method of calculating ranks of importance of nodes of an enterprise, the method comprising:
- creating, by a computer system, a plurality of relations based on a plurality of events, wherein each event of the plurality of events comprises an indication of a source node, an indication of a target node, and an indication of an action performed by the source node on the target node;
- accessing, by the computer system, the plurality of relations, wherein each relation of the plurality of relations comprises an indication of two nodes, and an indication of a relationship between the two nodes;
- processing, by the computer system, the plurality of the relations using the Perron-Frobenius theorem;
- ranking, by the computer system, based on the processing of the relations, the plurality of nodes according to importance, wherein each node is either a user or an item;
- and
- creating, by the computer system, a table of the nodes and ranks.
