Patent ID: 11810009

Abstract:
A computer-implemented method that includes obtaining a plurality of values each corresponding to one of a plurality of variables. The plurality of variables include variables of interest. The method includes obtaining a prediction for the values from a model, determining metric(s) for each of the variables of interest, and determining one or more of the variables of interest to be one or more influential variables based on the metric(s) determined for each of the variables of interest. The variables include one or more non-influential variables that is/are different from the influential variable(s). The influential variable(s) has/have a greater influence on the prediction than the non-influential variable(s). The method also includes displaying in a graphical user interface or printing in a report an explanation identifying the influential variable(s) and/or a justification of the determination that the influential variable(s) has/have a greater influence on the prediction than the non-influential variable(s).
