CREATING UNDERSTANDABLE MODELS FOR NUMEROUS MODELING TASKS
First Claim
1. A computer program product for generating models for a plurality of modeling tasks, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having stored thereon:
- first program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to receive the modeling tasks each having a target variable and at least one covariate, the target variable and the at least one covariate being the same for all of the modeling tasks, a relationship between the target variable and the at least one covariate being different for all of the modeling tasks; and
second program instructions executable by the processor to cause the processor to generate, for each of the modeling tasks, a model including a transfer function for approximating the relationship between the target value and the at least one covariate of the modeling task in a manner that at least two of the models share at least one identical transfer function and the models satisfy an accuracy condition.
