predictive modeling

Predictive models learn from past and existing data patterns. Their primary purpose involves discovering latent variables and hidden events that relate to future behavior.

These models typically use statistical or probabilistic algorithms. Companies train these algorithms to mine massive data volumes, which then generate future variables and evaluate specific data evolution.

Through constant improvement, predictive modeling has gained broad applicability. As a result, it has become an outstanding tool that improves all industry types while increasing their revenues.

How Predictive Modeling Works

Engineers have developed several model types and algorithms to achieve high accuracy levels. These models focus on precision and validity, which depend on different factors:

  • Training data quality
  • Data pattern choice
  • Initial hypotheses formulation

The Implementation Process

Any predictive modeling scenario follows a common process that includes these essential steps:

  • Collecting and cleaning data
  • Choosing patterns or variables
  • Selecting the adequate model
  • Training the model
  • Testing the model
  • Adjusting the initial assumptions
  • Validating the model

Driving Digital Transformation Success Through Predictive Modeling

Digital transformation has become mandatory for many companies. Organizations now seek to improve their internal processes and business operations through technology.

Therefore, leveraging predictive models and analytics solutions in digital transformation ensures strong forecasting capacities. Companies can now predict customer demands, improve operations, and generate accurate decisions.

Revolutionizing Traditional Engineering Approaches

The revolutionizing ability of predictive modeling is indeed helping businesses outpace standard engineering through changing the common way of improving their performance.

To meet customized digital transformation objectives, engineers must consider several factors:

  • Decision makers who will use the predictive model
  • Types of targeted variables or events
  • Areas of application

Expanding Beyond Technology

Furthermore, predictive models can be leveraged to handle all aspects of a business rather than only technological challenges (i.e., Manufacturing, banking, Healthcare, finance, sales, etc.).

Making AI Accessible

The advent of Artificial Intelligence has also made predictive models more accessible than ever before.

Companies of all sizes and sectors can now afford application of predictive models to learn from historical data and analyze patterns to generate new outcome from new data.

Predictive models can improve all possible KPIs. This technology helps organizations outpace traditional decision-making processes by strengthening their data-driven capacity.
