Patent number: 12387084Abstract: Techniques for training a prediction model are disclosed. An example method includes processing historical event data comprising a plurality of computer-readable events for a resource to determine previous parameters for the resource. The method also includes generating training data for training the prediction model without using a forecast for future utilization of the resource. The training data comprises a set of proxies generated from previous parameters for the resource. Each proxy is associated with a remaining capacity of the resource and a remaining time to expiration of the resource.

Patent number: 12361289Abstract: Certain embodiments involve generating or optimizing a neural network for generating analytical or predictive outputs. The neural network can be generated using a relationship between various predictor variables and an outcome (e.g., a condition's presence or absence). The neural network can be used to determine a relationship between each of the predictor variables and a response variable. The neural network can be optimized by iteratively adjusting the neural network such that a monotonic relationship exists between each of the predictor variables and the response variable. The optimized neural network can be used both for accurately determining response variables using predictor variables and determining adverse action codes for the predictor variables, which indicate an effect or an amount of impact that a given predictor variable has on the response variable.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2021Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: EQUIFAX INC.Inventors: Lewis Jordan, Matthew Turner, Michael McBurnett
