Automated approach for integrating automated function library functions and algorithms in predictive analytics

A system comprising:

• memory storing:
• an algorithm library defining available algorithms and associated parameters;
• and
• an executable component library comprising executable components, each executable component a user-customized algorithm from the algorithm library;
• an application providing operations comprising:
• identifying a user request to create a new function based on at least one of pre-existing algorithms, the new function to be used in an application used by a user;
• providing, in a first presentation via a user interface, a set of available algorithms from an algorithm library;
• receiving, via the user interface, a user selection of an algorithm from the set of available algorithms for initial creation of the new function, the algorithm including a set of available parameters, wherein each parameter of the set of available parameters is user-selectable for inclusion into or exclusion from the new function based on the user selection of the algorithm;
• providing, in a second presentation via the user interface, the set of available parameters;
• receiving, via the user interface for each parameter of the set of available parameters, a user election of whether to include or exclude the parameter for use in the new function;
• generating, using a package class of a package of nodes implementing executable components parameterized by users using the user interface, an executable component in response to receiving the user selection of the algorithm and the user election of whether to include or exclude each parameter for use, the executable component defined in an execution component node in the package and serving as a central execution component for the new function, the package including a metadata node corresponding to the execution component node and enabling the execution component node to be persisted in a local file system or a repository provided by a platform hosting the application, the executable component configured to execute the new function, including:
• for a given parameter that the user has elected to include in the new function, the executable component including the parameter in the new function;
• and
• for a given parameter that the user has elected for exclude from the new function, the executable component excluding the parameter from the new function;
• and
• storing the executable component for subsequent execution in response to the requested new function, the executable component for executing the new function;
• and
• an analytical processor for performing steps of the application.

A non-transitory computer-readable media encoded with a computer program, the computer program comprising instructions that when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

• identifying a user request to create a new function based on at least one of pre-existing algorithms, the new function to be used in an application used by a user;
• providing, in a first presentation via a user interface, a set of available algorithms from an algorithm library;
• receiving, via the user interface, a user selection of an algorithm from the set of available algorithms for initial creation of the new function, the algorithm including a set of available parameters, wherein each parameter of the set of available parameters is user-selectable for inclusion into or exclusion from the new function based on the user selection of the algorithm;
• providing, in a second presentation via the user interface, the set of available parameters;
• receiving, via the user interface for each parameter of the set of available parameters, a user election of whether to include or exclude the parameter for use in the new function;
• generating, using a package class of a package of nodes implementing executable components parameterized by users using the user interface, an executable component in response to receiving the user selection of the algorithm and the user election of whether to include or exclude each parameter for use, the executable component defined in an execution component node in the package and serving as a central execution component for the new function, the package including a metadata node corresponding to the execution component node and enabling the execution component node to be persisted in a local file system or a repository provided by a platform hosting the application, the executable component configured to execute the new function, including:

• and
• for a given parameter that the user has elected for exclude from the new function, the executable component excluding the parameter from the new function;
• and
• storing the executable component for subsequent execution in response to the requested new function, the executable component for executing the new function.
