Systems and methods for predicting feature values in a matrix are disclosed. In example embodiments, a server accesses a matrix, the matrix having multiple dimensions, one dimension of the matrix representing features, and one dimension of the matrix representing entities. The server separates the matrix into multiple submatrices along a first dimension, each submatrix including all cells in the matrix for a set of values in the first dimension. The server provides the multiple submatrices to multiple machines. The server computes, using each machine, a correlation between values in at least one second dimension of the matrix and a value for a preselected feature in the matrix, the correlation being used to predict the value for the preselected feature based on other values along the at least one second dimension. The server provides an output representing the computed correlation.

Systems and methods for identifying user information from a set of pages are disclosed. In example embodiments, a server determines that a first set of pages is associated with a specific user based on addresses of the first set of pages having a common portion of a uniform resource locator (URL). The server determines that at least a threshold number of pages from the first set of pages include common information, the common information comprising contact information or social networking information. The server associates the contact information or the social networking information with a user profile of the specific user. The server provides, as a digital transmission, the contact information or the social networking information.
