Systems and methods for automatically deriving data transformation criteria

An apparatus for automatically deriving data transformation criteria, the apparatus comprising:

• communications circuitry configured to:
• receive an indication of a target variable, wherein the target variable is user-selected and associated with a source dataset and a target dataset, and
• receive a decision tree for the target variable, wherein the decision tree is trained using the source dataset and the target dataset such that the decision tree can predict a value for the target variable from new source data;
• and
• a derivation engine configured to derive a set of parameters and pseudocode for producing the target variable from the source dataset.

A computer program product for automatically deriving data transformation criteria, the computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing software instructions that, when executed, cause an apparatus to:

• receive an indication of a target variable, wherein the target variable is user-selected and associated with a source dataset and a target dataset;
• receive a decision tree for the target variable, wherein the decision tree is trained using the source dataset and the target dataset such that the decision tree can predict a value for the target variable from new source data;
• and
• derive a set of parameters and pseudocode for producing the target variable from the source dataset.
