Patent ID: 11501205

Abstract:
Systems and methods for constructing sets of synthetic data. A single data record is identified from a first set of data. The first set of data comprises a first plurality of data records, each of the data records including multiple items of data describing an entity. Using pattern recognition, the single data record is processed to identify a group of records from within the first set that have corresponding characteristics equivalent to the single data record. The identified group of records comprises a target set of variables and the group of records from the first set that are not identified comprises a control set of variables. The target set of variables and the control set of variables are processed, using probability estimation and optimization constraints, to determine a score for each of the records in the first set. The score describes how similar each of the records in the first set is to the single data record. The records associated with a percentage of the highest scores are identified. The data associated with the single data record is replaced with data associated with the identified records identified, item-by-item.
