This project contains the source for MIT-LL Graph QuBE, a tool which enables efficient pattern-of-behavior search in data containing entities transacting over time.
Graph QuBE helps to answer the basic question: "If I have an interesting pattern of behavior between some entities-of-interest, can I look through all my data to find other such examples of this type of behavior?" Having such a "pattern of behavior" search capability could support many tasks such as situational awareness and decision support.
Developing technology for pattern-of-behavior search in large, transactional data sets, however, is a challenging task for both the commercial and academic communities. MIT-LL Graph QuBE marries the strengths of approaches from both these communties to develop an efficient two-stage system for pattern search on transactional data.
