  • Patent number: 9659257
    Abstract: A method and system that provide for decision support and/or training support in crisis decision-making situations are provided. In one implementation, a method identifies patterns from known cases based on information from a crisis event. Each of the known cases includes attributes and at least one outcome. The method also identifies a first subset of the known cases that relate to the identified patterns from the known cases. The method also analyzes the identified patterns to determine a cue that, if answered, will provide a second subset of the known cases including a more converged range of decision outcomes than the first subset.
    Type: Grant
