Abstract

Described herein are systems and methods for predicting whether an entity associated with a profile in one network is the same entity that is associated with a profile in a second network, which networks may represent networks from different network services or may represent networks from the same network service. In embodiments, network graph features, including nodes and connections, may be used to predict a probability that the profiles in the two networks should be matched. In embodiments, additional or different factors may be included in the predicted probability, such as homophily, match probabilities of seed nodes, match probabilities of attribute-matched nodes, attribute-attribute co-occurrence probabilities, and the like.
