Abstract: A system and method for verifying credentials are provided. The system includes a credential verification server (102) and a plurality of credential verification local servers (104). The system (100) is configured to receive a request from credential seeker (CS) to verify credentials of a credential owner (CO). The request is forwarded to an appropriate credential verification local server (104) among the plurality of credential verification local servers (104). Thereafter, the credential owner (CO) is notified about the request. Further, instruction is received from the credential owner (CO), wherein the instruction comprises at least one of, denying permission, granting permission to verify credential information as requested by the credential seeker (CS) and granting permission to verify credential information after modifying scope of access to information. Subsequently, access is provided to the credential seeker (CS) to verify credentials based on the instruction received by the credential owner (CO).

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for the root cause analysis of the failure of a manufactured product is disclosed. The present invention includes the development of a knowledge model, based on information obtained from historical warranty claim forms and various manufacturing data sources. The invention also includes processing text information in a free-form text that is obtained from warranty claim forms by using text-tagging and annotation techniques. Thereafter, the knowledge model is converted to a Bayesian network. The present invention provides a user interface to select parameters and corresponding instances from current warranty claim forms. The selected parameters and corresponding instances are used as input evidence for the Bayesian network. The present invention facilitates the process of drawing inferences for root cause analysis of the failure of manufactured products and corresponding probabilities.

Abstract: Various techniques can be used to implement a collaborative filtering-based recommendation engine. For example, different similarity measures can be used for different users. Different similarity measures can be used for a particular user across time. A superior similarity measure can be found for a user. User-defined similarity measures can be supported.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and clinical data mining system for enabling a user to derive knowledge from data corresponding to a plurality of electronic health records stored in a repository. One or more data elements are provided as an input. The data elements may include textual reports, images, and one or more criteria specified by the user. Information is extracted from one or more images associated with one or more electronic health records stored in the repository, based on the data elements. Further, information is extracted from one or more textual reports and structured data associated with the one or more electronic health records. Thereafter, one or more reports are generated based on the extracted information to enable the user to analyze the information. Subsequently, the user may derive knowledge from the data based on the analysis.

Abstract: A predictive data mining model can be selected based on how well the model meets an objective function. In certain implementations genetic algorithms can be used to search a space of predictive data mining model building parameters to determine an optimal predictive data mining model based on a score function corresponding to, for example, the accuracy of the selected predictive data mining model.

Abstract: A computerized method, system and program product for generating a data mining model. A user can provide objectives for the model and sample data to train, validate, and test the model. A rules system can automatically select a set of algorithms based on the objectives and/or sample data. A plurality of datasets can also be created from the sample data. Using the datasets, the set of algorithms can be optimized for the particular data on which it is intended to be used. The data mining model can then be generated from the optimized set of algorithms.

Abstract: Under the present invention, a data exploration system, a customized model system and an existing model system are provided. The data exploration system analyzes user data to identify statistical information such as data distribution, data relationships, data outliners and invalid or missing data values. The customized model center iteratively generates customized data mining models in parallel based on permutations of the user data, user-provided business parameters and/or a set of model generation algorithms. The existing model system provides users with a library of existing data mining models, assembled based on the business parameters, from which they can choose one or more. In any event, any customized or existing data mining models selected can be run against the user data in parallel.
