  • Method of and apparatus for automated behavior prediction
    Patent number: 8010470
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of behavior prediction includes selecting behavior examples having corresponding antecedent candidates, identifying source text descriptions describing the behavior examples, automatically extracting predictors as common themes across all statements and all behavior examples with a language-independent theme extraction process, flagging each behavior example to indicate a presence or absence of the corresponding extracted antecedents in each of the source text descriptions and creating a data array consisting of antecedent columns and behavior example rows, submitting the data array to a pattern classifier to extract patterns among the antecedent candidates and outcomes by training and validating the pattern classifier and predicting a new occurrence of a target behavior by entering a current state of the antecedents to the trained pattern classifier.
    Type: Grant
