US Patent 11354587 Systems and methods for organizing and finding data

A system and associated methods for organizing, representing, finding, discovering, and accessing data. Embodiments represent information and data in the form of a data structure termed a “Feature Graph”. A Feature Graph includes nodes and edges, where the edges serve to “connect” a node to one or more other nodes. A node in a Feature Graph may represent a variable, that is, a measurable object, characteristic or factor. An edge in a Feature Graph may represent a measure of a statistical association between a node and one or more other nodes that has been retrieved from a source or sources. Datasets that demonstrate or support the statistical association, or measure the associated variable are “linked to” from the Feature Graph.
