Abstract

Certain aspects involve building and debugging models for generating source code executed on data-processing platforms. One example involves receiving an electronic data-processing model, which generates an analytical output from input attributes weighted with respective modeling coefficients. A target data-processing platform is identified that requires bin ranges for the modeling coefficients and reason codes for the input attributes. Bin ranges and reason codes are identified. Modeling code is generated that implements the electronic data-processing model with the bin ranges and the reason codes. The processor outputs source code, which is generated from the modeling code, in a programming language used by the target data-processing platform.

Dependent claims

A model integration system comprising:

a processor communicatively coupled via a data network to a client computing system;
and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing program code that provides a model integration tool and that is executable by the processor;
wherein the processor is configured for executing the program code to perform operations comprising:
receiving an electronic data-processing model that generates an analytical output by applying a function to input attributes weighted with modeling coefficients, respectively,
identifying a target data-processing platform that requires (a) bin ranges respectively associated with the modeling coefficients and (b) reason codes respectively associated with at least some of the input attributes, wherein each bin range identifies a range of input attribute values for which a respective modeling coefficient is valid, wherein each reason code indicates a respective impact of a respective weighted input attribute on the analytical output,
identifying the bin ranges and the reason codes,
generating Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML) code that implements the electronic data-processing model with the bin ranges and the reason codes,
verifying, from a test of the PMML code and prior to outputting executable source code in a programming language used by the target data-processing platform, that a test analytical output matches an expected analytical output and that a test reason code matches an expected reason code, wherein verifying that the test analytical output matches the expected analytical output and the test reason code matches the expected reason code comprises:
(i) accessing an audit file from the non-transitory computer-readable medium or an additional non-transitory computer-readable medium, and
(ii) comparing the expected analytical output and the expected reason code stored in the audit file with the test analytical output and the test reason code, and
outputting the executable source code in the programming language used by the target data-processing platform, wherein the executable source code is generated from the PMML code and implements the electronic data-processing model with the bin ranges and the reason codes.
