A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11922329B2) outlines a predictive modeling method that involves obtaining a first-order predictive model to predict output variables based on input variables and then conducting a second-order predictive modeling procedure on this model. The second-order procedure includes generating second-order input data, creating training and testing data, fitting a second-order predictive model, and testing its performance. The method also allows for blending predictive models, using different types of second-order predictive models such as RuleFit or generalized additive models, and performing cross-validation to enhance accuracy.

Furthermore, the patent describes a predictive modeling apparatus that stores a machine-executable module for executing the second-order predictive modeling procedure on a first-order predictive model. The apparatus includes tasks for pre-processing and model-fitting, generating input data, training and testing data, fitting a second-order predictive model, and testing its performance. The apparatus is designed to determine the computational efficiency of the second-order model compared to the first-order model, based on resource utilization measurements. Additionally, the apparatus can handle time-series models, blend predictive models, assess accuracy scores, and deploy the most accurate second-order model. The patent also covers an article of manufacture with computer-readable instructions for implementing the predictive modeling method.
