Version 9.5 product and feature additions will considerably augment the current Angoss Data Science Platform offering, and continue to improve the user experience.
Further extending Angoss’ best-in-class segmentation and modeling interface to improve performance and increase business productivity, KnowledgeSEEKER, KnowledgeSTUDIO and KnowledgeREADER will now incorporate Ensemble Trees and redesigned Weight of Evidence (WOE) transformations that substantially enhance the automation of the scorecard building process. Additionally, in order to cater to a wider audience and increase collaboration between teams and departments, these products will also posses optional Python language integration capability.
In the new 9.5 Platform, Angoss extends its text analysis product, KnowledgeREADER, by providing text analytics users with new technology offered by the upgraded Lexalytics’ Salience 6 Text Analytics Engine. Compared to Salience 5 featured in the 8.7 Platform, the Salience 6 Engine in KnowledgeREADER 9.5 supports new features such as extended multilingual support and enhanced Syntax Matrix technology that enables users to quickly and efficiently extract meaningful and actionable results from text. Furthermore, text analytics features are now fully supported by the Angoss workflow. The new Text Analysis palette includes the Text Analysis, Association Map, Text Analysis Comparison, and Trend Analysis nodes.
Angoss is excited to unveil InsightOPTIMIZER and KnowledgeMANAGER, new product additions to the current software suite portfolio that offer highly anticipated optimization and model management capabilities while still being easy to use and accessible to technical and business users alike.
InsightOPTIMIZER, a prescriptive analytic application, optimizes the business strategy development process. It will help users solve complex business problems by automating the decision-making process, determining the next strategic move, and eliminating the need to experiment with different deployment scenarios thereby minimizing loss and maximizing results. By optimizing sophisticated analytic models, subject to business constraints and rules, InsightOPTIMIZER allows companies to make the best use of limited resources.
KnowledgeMANAGER will enable users to store and easily access their Angoss models via a user-friendly web-based interface. This application will allow users to manage, compare, monitor and score models to ensure that only the best performing models move to production. To adhere to heightened regulatory requirements, KnowledgeMANAGER provides managers with access to streamlined reporting and comprehensive audit trails to reduce compliance risk and deliver smarter decisions.
