摘要： Outlier detection methods and apparatus have light computational resources requirement, especially on the storage requirement, and yet achieve a state-of-the-art predictive performance. The outlier detection problem is first reduced to that of a classification learning problem, and then selective sampling based on uncertainty of prediction is applied to further reduce the amount of data required for data analysis, resulting in enhanced predictive performance. The reduction to classification essentially consists in using the unlabeled normal data as positive examples, and randomly generated synthesized examples as negative examples. Application of selective sampling makes use of an underlying, arbitrary classification learning algorithm, the data labeled by the above procedure, and proceeds iteratively. Each iteration consisting of selection of a smaller sub-sample from the input data, training of the underlying classification algorithm with the selected data, and storing the classifier output by the classification algorithm. The selection is done by essentially choosing examples that are harder to classify with the classifiers obtained in the preceding iterations. The final output hypothesis is a voting function of the classifiers obtained in the iterations of the above procedure.

摘要： Feature importance information available in a predictive model with correlation information among the variables is presented to facilitate more flexible choices of actions by business managers. The displayed feature importance information combines feature importance information available in a predictive model with correlational information among the variables. The displayed feature importance information may be presented as a network structure among the variables as a graph, and regression coefficients of the variables indicated on the corresponding nodes in the graph. To generate the display, a regression engine is called on a set of training data that outputs importance measures for the explanatory variables for predicting the target variable. A graphical model structural learning module is called that outputs a graph on the explanatory variables of the above regression problem representing the correlational structure among them. The feature importance measure, output by the regression engine, is displayed for each node in the graph, as an attribute, such as color, size, texture, etc, of that node in the graph output by the graphical model structural learning module.
