  • Publication number: 20140278588
    Abstract: Transformation of disparate data for use in rendering a decision involving a potentially insurable risk. An Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) process extracts the data and converts it from a plurality of formats into a standard format for processing. A heuristic engine inferentially processes the converted data to identify information relevant to the decision to be rendered. A consolidation and presentation engine generates presentable knowledge from the relevant information and then presents the knowledge to a decision-making entity for rendering the decision. And an optimization feedback process monitors one or more actions on the presented knowledge by the decision-making entity and adjusts one or more of the ETL process, the heuristic engine, and the consolidation and presentation engine as a function of the monitored actions.
