Abstract

This disclosure relates to systems and methods for searching names using name clusters. A method includes training a supervised machine learning system to learn a connection strength between a member and peers of the member; clustering the member with the peers in response to a threshold number of profile similarities between the member and the peers and the connection strength between the member and the peers being above a connection strength threshold value; and applying an unsupervised machine learning system using output from the supervised machine learning system and the clustering to generate a connection between the member and at least one of the peers.
