Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a predictive output based on a predictive input includes generating a plurality of rule-based prediction scores by executing one or more prediction rules on the prediction input, wherein each prediction rule of the one or more prediction rules is associated with a rule condition and one or more predictive weights, each predictive weight of the one or more predictive weights is associated with a related prediction category of a plurality of prediction categories, and each prediction category of the plurality of prediction categories is associated with a rule-based prediction score; determining a rule-based prediction output based at least in part on the plurality of rule-based prediction scores; and providing the plurality of rule-based prediction scores and the rule-based prediction output to a machine learning engine, wherein the machine learning engine is configured to generate a machine-learning based prediction output based at least in part on the plurality of
