Apparatuses, methods and systems for relevance scoring in a graph database using multiple pathways

In accordance with one aspect, the present disclosure is directed to quantifying the relevance between two entities in a graph database. One way of doing this is determining the number of pathways and the length of the pathways within the graph database that connect the two entities, wherein each entity is represented as a node. In some implementations, the present disclosure identifies and quantifies the connection between a news document (e.g., a news article) and a company or other entity. For example, the connection between an online news article and a company's underlying equity instrument can be evaluated.
