Abstract
A system for providing a user with a higher risk score indicating the likelihood that a business under inquiry by the user is involved in questionable activity comprising a means for evaluating how closely the profile of the business under inquiry matches those of businesses already confirmed as higher risk wherein a neural network model is capable of capturing the way multiple variables (or factors or characteristics) inter-relate or recognizing patterns indicative of questionable activity;

A system for providing a user with a higher risk score indicating the likelihood that a business under inquiry by the user may be involved in questionable activity comprising:
- means for evaluating how closely the profile of the business under inquiry matches those of businesses already confirmed as higher risk wherein a neural network model is capable of capturing the way multiple data elements inter-relate and thereby of recognizing patterns indicative of questionable activity, and means for transmitting a report of such risk to the user.
A method for providing a user with a higher risk score indicating the likelihood that a business under inquiry by the user is involved in questionable activity comprising steps of:
- evaluating how closely the profile of the business under inquiry matches those of businesses already confirmed as higher risk wherein a neural network model is capable of capturing the way multiple data elements inter-relate and thereby of recognizing patterns indicative of questionable activity;
- transmitting a report of the degree of risk to the user.
