摘要

Recruitment, counter-terrorism / security systems, methods, insurance underwriting, sales and marketing improvement, financial transaction decision and collections, and social scoring are provided. Machine learning can assign connectivity values to other community members, including individuals, businesses, products, brands, cities or neighborhoods, etc. Connectivity values may be automatically collected from or assigned by third parties or based on the frequency and / or type of interactions between community members. Connectivity values can represent factors such as alignment, reputation within the community, the degree of trust, competence in one or more skills, or compatibility with others. The degree and type of connectivity between two entities can be assessed by calculating a connectivity value based on links between the entities and relative or absolute trust, competence, and / or compatibility characteristics of the connections. Connectivity values can identify the best prospects (clients, hires, dates), find out of the people network, underwrite insurance, 'decision' loans and collections, shorten sales cycles, etc.
