Abstract: A method includes, based on a fitness function, selecting a subset of models from a plurality of models. The plurality of models is generated based on a genetic algorithm and corresponds to a first epoch of the genetic algorithm. Each of the plurality of models includes data representative of a neural network. The method also includes performing at least one genetic operation of the genetic algorithm with respect to at least one model of the subset to generate a trainable model and sending the trainable model to an optimization trainer. The method includes adding a trained model received from the optimization trainer as input to a second epoch of the genetic algorithm that is subsequent to the first epoch.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and Geographic Information System (GIS) for creating a user's proximity model in accordance with a user's feedback. The GIS creates the user's proximity model using a Dempster-Shafer technique. The GIS initializes the user's proximity model upon initializing a fuzzy set with a fuzzy membership function. The fuzzy set includes a plurality of points scattered around a reference point. The GIS creates an intermediate model using the user's proximity model by selecting a group of points from the plurality of points. The GIS receives a user feedback on the intermediate model. The GIS adapts the fuzzy membership function based on the user feedback. The GIS then updates the user's proximity model based on the fuzzy membership function which is adapted on basis of the user feedback.
Abstract: Predictive modeling is an important class of data analytics with applications in numerous fields. Once a predictive model is built, validated, and applied on a set of objects, by a data analytics system (or even by manual modeling), consumers of the model information need assistance to navigate through the results. This is because both regression and classification models that output continuous values (eg, probability of belonging to a class) are often used to rank objects and then a thresholding of the ranked scores needs to be used to separate objects into a “positive” and a “negative” class. The choice of threshold greatly affects the true positive, false positive, true negative, and false negative results of the model's application. An ideal data analytics system should allow the user to understand the tradeoffs of different threshold values for different thresholds.

Abstract: Methods and systems for pharmacy modeling are described. The risk adjusted pharmacy predictive model is created from member data, claims data, and population data. This model can be used to compare the actual pharmacy performance to an expected actual pharmacy performance value, which can be used to identify pharmacies at risk or not performing to an acceptable level. The model can be used for adherence and generic drug utilization ratings of pharmacies. The pharmacy can be judged on a therapy class by therapy class basis with factors that reflect the demographic, socio-economic, location, benefits attributes, etc. that actually affect the performance of the pharmacy and may assist in determining the quality of care by a pharmacy.

Abstract: Devices, methods, and programs for monitoring electrical devices. A method for monitoring an electrical device may include obtaining data representing a sum of electrical signals of electrical devices; processing the data with a Factorial Hidden Markov Model (FHMM) to produce an estimate of an electrical signal of a first of the electrical devices; and outputting the estimate of the electrical signal of the first electrical device. The FHMM may have a factor corresponding to the first electrical device. The factor may have three or more states.

Abstract: Features are disclosed for identifying and routing items for tagging using a latent feature model, such as a recurrent neural network language model (RNNLM). The model may be trained to identify latent features for catalog items such as movies, books, food items, beverages, and the like. Based on similarities in latent features, tags previous assigned to items may be applied to untagged items. Application may be manual or automatic. In either case, resources need to be balances to ensure efficient tagging of items. The included features help to identify and direct these limited tagging resources.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for predicting based on multi-source heterogeneous data. The method comprises: acquiring, with regard to an event of a set type, at least two types of historical data that can reflect an event result; establishing a joint likelihood model of attribute data of the event of the set type and the historical data; determining an optimal estimation of the attribute data according to a maximum posterior principle; and determining, based on a probability distribution associated with the attribute data in the joint likelihood model, a parameter in the probability distribution as a prediction result of a predicted event of the set type. Some embodiments use a hierarchical model to introduce data of different sources into different data layers, unify heterogeneous data in a joint likelihood model to perform analysis, and obtain a more accurate, instant and stable prediction result through effective fusion.
