  • Patent number: 11880778
    Abstract: A system for identifying information in high dimensional, low latency streaming data having dynamically evolving data patterns. The system processes, continuously and in real-time, the streaming data. Processing includes filtering the data based on event data to identify diagnostic data points by comparing the event data with an experimental design matrix and performing a modeling operation using the identified diagnostic data points in order to identify efficiently any current and emerging patterns of relationships between at least one outcome variable and predictor variables. The at least one a-priori, pre-designed experimental design matrix is generated based on combinations of the predictor variables and at least one outcome variable. The experimental design matrix is also generated based on at least one of main effects, limitations, constraints, and interaction effects of the predictor variables and combinations.

  • Patent number: 11657305
    Abstract: A system for generating algorithmic models comprising a function module to generate a desirability function, an automated machine learning module, and a UI module. The desirability function defines a single desirability value based on an algorithmic model accuracy criteria, criteria for algorithmic model quality, criteria for model fidelity, and criteria for the benefits and cost of model deployment. Specific hard and soft constraints regarding these and other user-defined criteria can also be specified by the user. The automated machine learning module generates an algorithmic model by training the algorithmic model against a model data set, identifying the model with the greatest desirability with respect to all criteria as combined via the desirability function. The UI module generates a user interface to display the overall desirability as well as all model criteria configured by the user. The displayed criteria and desirability are selectable and definable.
