Method for selecting a rank ordered sequence based on probabilistic dissimilarity matrix

摘要

A computer implemented method for ordering a plurality of entities by computing a dissimilarity matrix based on a plurality of probabilities. The pluralities of probabilities are determined based on a plurality of classes. A weighted distance matrix is computed based the dissimilarity matrix. A plurality of rank ordered sequence candidates based at least in part on the sum of weighted distances between neighboring entities in the rank ordered sequence is calculated. Other embodiments are described in the claims.
