Abstract

A graphlet is extracted from a relation graph for digital identity verification. The relation graph contains data element nodes collected about access activities, such as user access context, payment instrument, address, device information, etc. The graph can be examined to identify node groups in demarcation areas. Nodes outside of the demarcation areas represent data elements of a user; and the data elements in the demarcation areas may or may not be of the user in general. The system determines a matching score between the nodes outside of the demarcation areas and the nodes in a demarcation area. The nodes in the demarcation area are attributed to the user if the matching score is above a threshold. The nodes attributed to the user are combined as the graphlet showing the data elements of the user and used in user authentication and/or access control via electronic signature.
