APPARATUSES, COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHODS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR IMPROVED MODEL-BASED DETERMINATIONS

Abstract:

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided that utilize specially configured model-based trees to output data that more accurately satisfies a particular predictive task. Each model-based tree may include any number of branches partitioning an original data set into subsets for processing. Each branch may end in one or more leaf nodes, where each leaf node is associated with a data model specially configured based on a particular set of partitioned data associated with the leaf node. In this regard, the plurality of model-based trees may generate data utilized to determine and/or output preferred data for a particular user.
