Abstract

A customizable data aggregating, data sorting, and data transformation system is disclosed. In particular, the system may allow for the application of various filters to a sample of data corresponding to various measurables associated with objects. A mean and standard deviation for each of the measurables in the filtered sample of data may be calculated and may be utilized in determining z-scores for a first set of raw measurements corresponding to the measurables. Once the z-scores for the first set of raw measurements are determined, selected weights may be applied to each of the z-scores to determine a weighted z-score for each of the measurables in the first set. Each weighted z-score may then be aggregated to generate a score for an object associated with the first set. The score for the object may be utilized to rank the object relative to other objects in the filtered sample of data.

comparing the first score for the first object to other scores for other objects in the plurality of objects to determine a ranking for the first object with respect to the other objects.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise receiving, via an application executing in the system, the weight to be applied to each z-score for each of the measurable actions in the first set of measurable actions.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise applying a second filter to the sample of data to generate a second filtered sample of data corresponding to a second subset of the plurality of measurable actions.
