Abstract: A frame rate control method is provided. A primary scenario and a non-primary scenario are identified according to two or more windows displayed on a screen. Each of the primary scenario and the non-primary scenario is performed by an individual application. A frame rate of the non-primary scenario is decreased when a performance index indicates that a first condition is present. The application corresponding to the non-primary scenario is disabled when the performance index indicates that a second condition is present after decreasing the frame rate of the non-primary scenario, so as to remove the window corresponding to the non-primary scenario from the screen.

Abstract: Techniques for mapping policy documents to regulatory documents to check for compliance between the policies and documents are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method determining, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, an information input, a control framework, and a document from a first group consisting of a regulatory document and a policy document, wherein the information input is a corpora from a second group consisting of a domain corpora and a global corpora. The computer-implemented method can also comprise mapping, by the system, the received regulatory document or the received policy document to the control framework using a supervised machine learning technique.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing interpretable predictions from a machine learning model includes receiving a data structure that represents a hierarchical structure of a set of features (X) used by one or more predictive models to generate a set of predictions (Y). An interpretability model is built corresponding to the predictive models, by assigning an interpretability to each prediction Yi based on the hierarchical structure. Assigning the interpretability includes decomposing X into a plurality of partitions Xj using the hierarchical structure, wherein X=U1NXj, N being the number of partitions. Further, each partition is decomposed into a plurality of sub-partitions using the hierarchical structure until atomic sub-partitions are obtained. A score is computed for each partition as a function of the predicted scores of the sub-partitions, wherein the predicted scores represent interactions between the sub-partitions. Further, an interpretation of a prediction is outputted.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to extraction of rationales for studied outcome. A method comprises: grouping features as expert to align with a set of operating practices; generating interpretable features using operating rules, combining with statistical dependence analysis to bin selected features to generate favorite practice actions; grouping features as expert that combine a subset of the interpretable features to align with a set of operating practices.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods, systems, and computer readable media are provided for identifying and optimizing performance drivers of a healthcare related system. Healthcare related data may be analyzed to produce performance information pertaining to performance indicators for performance drivers of the healthcare related system. From the performance information, changes in the sets of performance indicators over time for the performance drivers may be determined and performance drivers with determined changes satisfying a threshold may be identified. An impact of the determined changes in the performance indicators to the identified performance drivers and contributions to the determined impact from one or more factors may be identified. Factors of the identified performance drivers with opposing utilization trends may be identified and an impact of the identified factors on the performance drivers may be determined.

Abstract: A method for simulating participation patterns in a plurality of events from a pool of qualified participants includes selecting an event whose preference rank r is equal to a predetermined preference rank R(i,j) for an event of type j for individual i; sampling a random number Z that represents a number of events in which to participate when a number N(j) of available events of type j is greater than 0 and an expected participation rate P(i, j) of individual i for events of type j is greater than 0; selecting a random subset S with Z elements that indicates which Z events to participate in; and looping over k=1 to N(j) and setting a participation array M(i,j,k,l) to 1 iff k is contained in S, where participation array M(i,j,k,l) indicates whether or not individual i participates in a k-th event of type j in an l-th simulation.
