Abstract
Embodiments of the invention generally relate to methods and systems for operating authorization rules. An authorization rule has conditions that may be satisfied by an authorization request. A rule is rotated between the first mode and the second mode over a time interval wherein a first set of authorization requests are received. A first subset of the first set of authorization requests may not be rejected. After the first time interval, the authorization requests that were not rejected may be validated through an independent process. An accuracy rate for the rule is determined based on the portion of authorization requests that are valid and satisfied the conditions of the rule.
Claims20
An authorization computer, comprising:
- a processor circuit;
- a memory circuit coupled to the processor circuit;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to the processor circuit and storing code executable by the processor circuit for performing an operation comprising:
- loading into the memory circuit a plurality of authorization rules including a first rule, each authorization rule of the plurality of authorization rules including one or more conditions and being assigned to a first mode or a second mode;
- rotating the first rule between the first mode and the second mode over a time interval;
- receiving, over a network from a plurality of requesting computers, a first set of authorization requests during a first time period of the time interval;
- determining a first subset of the first set of authorization requests that satisfy one or more conditions of the first rule;
- confirming, after the first time interval, which of the authorization requests in the first subset are valid through an independent process;
- and
- determining a first accuracy rate for the first rule based on the portion of authorization requests in the first subset that are valid.
