20110106723 | Computer-Implemented Systems And Methods For Scenario Analysis - Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for implementing a scenario analysis manager that performs multiple scenarios based upon time series data that is representative of transactional data are provided. A system and method provides candidate predictive models for a first scenario for selection where the set of candidate predictive models includes an identification of variables associated with a model. Model selection data is received from a scenario analysis manager where a selected model is configured to predict a future value of a first variable based on values of a second variable. Time series data is received representative of past transaction activity of the first variable and the second variable, and data representative of a future value of the second variable is also received. The future value of the first variable is determined using the selected model, the time-series data and the future value of the second variable. | 05-05-2011 |

A plurality of model forecast nodes are resolved, where resolving a model forecast node includes generating a node forecast for the one or more physical process attributes. A combination node is processed, where a combination node transforms a plurality of node forecasts at child nodes of the combination node into a combined forecast. A selection node is processed, where a selection node chooses a node forecast from among child nodes of the selection node based on a selection criteria. | 01-24-2013 |

20140019909 | Computer-Implemented Systems And Methods For Time Series Exploration Using Structured Judgment - Systems and methods are provided for analyzing unstructured time stamped data. A first series of user display screens are provided, where the first series of user display screens are configured to be displayed in a step-wise manner so that a user can specify a first approach through a series of predetermined steps on how the unstructured data is to be structured. A second series of user display screens are provided, where the second series of user display screens are configured to be displayed in a step-wise manner so that the user can specify a second approach through the series of predetermined steps on how the unstructured data is to be structured. Tracking data enables alternate viewing of the first and second approach to facilitate a decision whether to format the unstructured time stamped data according to the first approach or the second approach. | 01-16-2014 |
