Abstract: Models are generated using a variety of tools and features of a model generation platform. For example, in connection with a project in which a user generates a predictive model based on historical data about a system being modeled, the user is provided through a graphical user interface a structured sequence of model generation activities to be followed, the sequence including dimension reduction, model generation, model process validation, and model re-generation. Historical multi-dimensional data is received representing multiple variables transformed to be maximally predictive for at least one outcome variable to be used as an input to a predictive model of a commercial system, model development process is validated for at one or more sets of such variables and enabling a user of a model generation tool to combine at least two of the variables from the sets of variables.

For example, in connection with a project in which a user generates a predictive model based on historical data about a system being modeled, the user is provided through a graphical user interface a structured sequence of model generation activities to be followed, the sequence including dimension reduction, model generation, model process validation, and model re-generation. Historical multi-dimensional data is received representing multiple source variables to be used as an input to a predictive model of a commercial system and applying transformations to the data that are selected based on the strength of measurement represented by a variable; variables are transformed into new more predictive variables, including the Bayesian renormalization of sparsely sampled variable and including the imputation of missing values for categorical or continuous variables.

In connection with a process in which a user generates a collection of predictive models or an aggregate predictive model based on historical data about a system being modeled, profiles of aggregate targets are generated based on key contributory variables.

A user generates a predictive model based on historical data about a system being modeled. Structured project information is automatically stored that captures a state of the project at successive steps in generating the model.

A graphical user interface enables a user of a model generation tool to view and manage subgroups of variables associated with generation of a predictive model including original source variables and derived variables; variable response functions are displayed; variables are edited and transformed into new more predictive variables.
