  • Patent number: 12579452
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention address technical challenges associated with performing machine learning operations on timeseries/periodic data by introducing a machine learning framework that has a first periodic tier for determining predicted evaluation scores for those predictive entities that are associated with a single evaluation period (e.g., a single year of data) and a second periodic tier for determining predicted evaluation scores for those predictive entities that are associated with multiple evaluation periods. The noted framework addresses the existing shortcomings of machine learning frameworks that operate on timeseries/periodic data with respect to inadequacy of data associated with shorter periods to determine parameters needed to perform comprehensive predictive data analysis with respect to longer periods.
