Abstract

Embodiments relate to analyzing dataset. A method of analyzing data is provided. The method obtains a description of a dataset. The method automatically generates a plurality of analysis options from the description of the dataset. The method generates a plurality of queries based on the analysis options. The method deploys the queries on the dataset to build a plurality of statistical models from the dataset.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method of analyzing data, comprising:

obtaining a description of a dataset;

automatically generating, by a computer, a plurality of analysis options from the description of the dataset;

generating a plurality of queries based on the analysis options; and

deploying the queries on the dataset to build a plurality of statistical models from the dataset.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the dataset is in a database format, and the description of a dataset includes a database schema.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising allowing a user to remove one or more analysis options before generating queries from the analysis options.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the automatically generating the analysis options comprises applying a set of predetermined rules to the description of the dataset to generate one or more of data filtering conditions, database clauses, statistical functions and model-specific functions.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the automatically generating the analysis options further comprises combining the one or more of data filtering conditions, database clauses, statistical functions and model-specific functions.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the queries comprise database queries.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising reusing the queries to analyze another dataset.
