Cascaded boosted predictive models

Abstract:

Cascaded, boosted predictive models trained using distinct sets of exogenous and endogenous features are configured to predict component of performance ratings of entities. From the distinct predicted components, the second entity's rating factor can be determined. A second entity's rating factor represents the specific contribution a second entity makes to his average performance rating, as distinct from the rating that an arbitrary or hypothetical second entity would obtain.
