Abstract
By applying a set of simple geometric rules to the connections within a connected graph of ‘topics’ it is possible to uncover hidden relationships that are otherwise inaccessible to the lay person. Interesting, potentially non-obvious threads of content, termed indirect connection clusters (ICCs), can be found from an online encyclopedia or other graph of articles that are not directly connected to a starting topic, but instead are connected via an intermediate clique of articles. A system performing a search of an information graph can receive a request for identifying relevant content, identify (in a traversal of the information graph) one or more ICCs using a starting topic associated with the request, refine the one or more ICCs (eliminating certain ICCs) and generate a refined set of ICCs, and rank ICCs within the refined set. The ranked ICCs can be provided in response to the request for identifying relevant content.
