Abstract

The field of the invention relates to systems and methods for data mining and processing, and more particularly to systems and methods for automating content from performance assessment data. In one embodiment, an automated notes and categorization system may include a primary database comprising performance assessment data. The primary database is operatively coupled to a computer program product having a computer-usable medium having a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor, causes said processor to execute a process that analyzes and converts raw performance data into automated content that presents data in readable user friendly form to facilitate human understanding.

Claims

1. A web-based automated notes and categorization system comprising:

an electronic database having raw performance assessment data associated with a plurality of entities that collectively form a competitive federation, wherein the raw performance assessment data is collected from one or more data sources;

wherein the electronic database is operatively coupled to a computer program product having a computer-usable medium having a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor, causes said processor to execute an electronic process that analyzes and converts said raw performance data;

said electronic process comprising;

datamining said performance assessment data for data relevant to a performance statistic and an associated contextual split for said performance statistic for each of the plurality of entities;

summarizing said data into said performance statistic and associated contextual split for each entity, wherein each performance statistic has a sample size, and further wherein the associated contextual split defines a subset of said performance statistic based on one or more parameters;

ranking each entity according to the summarized data associated with the associated performance statistic;

identifying a strength value for each performance statistic based on the ranking of the associated entity, the associated contextual split, and associated sample size; and

generating a plain language note for the entity with the highest strength value, wherein the plain language note includes a textual summary of the entity'"'"'s performance statistic, contextual split, and ranking, wherein said plain language note is accessible to a plurality of users and servers over a public network.

2. The system of claim 1, further comprising a secondary database having user-generated (secondary) performance assessment data.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the plain language note includes a historical trend of said summarized data.

4. The system of claim 3, wherein the historical trend is user-defined by beginning and end time periods.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the process is further configured to post the plain language note to one or more third party social media networks.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the one or more parameters is a specific time frame.
