Abstract
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for identifying pathways in a graph of interconnected nodes. A time series of graph data is captured, which corresponds to events occurring at different nodes in the graph. The graph is traversed to identify consistent and variable pathways, respectively, within the graph. The identified pathways are scored according to a particular feature to establish an expected variance model for the events contained within the graph. Newly received data are compared against the expected variance model to determine a degree to which the newly received data deviates from the expected variance. The variance model is adjusted based on the newly encountered data.
