Abstract: There is a need for more effective and efficient predictive data analysis based at least in part on structured data. This need can be addressed by, for example, solutions for performing predictive data analysis using bidirectional encoder deep learning models that are configured to process structured data attributes. In one example, a method includes identifying a group of training structured data fields; generating a group of per-field tokenized values for each training structured data field; generating a bidirectional encoder deep learning model based at least in part on each group of per-field tokenized values for a training structured data field; and performing one or more prediction-based actions based at least in part on the trained bidirectional encoder deep learning model.

Abstract: A method of directing participants during a social networking event includes the step of accessing a participant database that includes a plurality of records, each record including a participant identifier and associated participant attributes.

Abstract: Described are methods for determining a recommended dosage and/or variety of cannabis for a subject based on genetic testing. The presence or absence of genetic variants in a sample from the subject is determined and used to determine a recommended dosage of cannabis, estimate the sensitivity of the subject to cannabis, or select a subject for the treatment of a medical condition. In some embodiments the genetic variants include polymorphisms in or near CYP2C9, CYP3A4 and/or CYP2C19, optionally that are associated with cannabinoid metabolism. The recommended dosage may be for a specific variety of cannabis for treating a medical condition.
