  • Publication number: 20220245393
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include generating a plurality of predictions that each define a plurality of future inputs for a model. A deviation curve is generated by determining a distance between each prediction of the plurality of predictions and a respective known data point of a plurality of known data points. One or more points in the deviation curve are sampled and the sampled points are compared to a low threshold and a high threshold. A judgement is determined for each prediction to determine whether the respective prediction will be accepted or denied as an input to the model. The future inputs for the model are modified based on the judgments.
