If you do not start a discussion, any editor will be justified in removing the tag without warning." Cassiopeia placed that tag, but showed no interest in starting such discussion, despite being asked to several times. I was justified in removing the tag. @Cassiopeia: Please stop spamming up the feed with these baseless WP:aspersions. If you have anything to add to this discussion, please do it on the talk page.

TypeData science, machine learning, predictive analytics

Polyanalyst is a data science software platform developed by Megaputer Intelligence that provides an environment for text mining, data mining, machine learning, and predictive analytics. It is used by Megaputer to build tools with applications to health care, business management, insurance, and other industries. PolyAnalyst has also been used for COVID-19 forecasting.

Overview

A screenshot of a PolyAnalyst flowchart showing the use of a convolutional neural network node.

PolyAnalyst's graphical user interface contains various nodes that can be linked into a flowchart to perform an analysis. The software provides nodes for data import, data preparation, data visualization, data analysis, and data export.[1][2] After an analysis is complete, the result may be published to a web report.[3]

PolyAnalyst supports text analytics through nodes that rely on machine learning algorithms and a proprietary programming language called PDL (Pattern Definition Language).[4] PolyAnalyst's text analytics features include nodes for text clustering, sentiment analysis, extraction of facts, keywords, and entities, and the creation of taxonomies and ontologies. Polyanalyst also contains nodes for the analysis of structured data and to execute code in Python and R.[5][6] As of 2020, the software supports text analysis in 16 languages.[7]

PolyAnalyst is typically used by Megaputer to build custom tools for businesses. It uses a client–server model and is licensed under a software as a service model.[3]

Applications

Insurance

PolyAnalyst was used to build a subrogation prediction tool which can assist in identifying subrogatable insurance claims. The tool determines the probability that a claim is subrogatable, and if so, the amount that is expected to be recovered. It is used by insurance companies to reduce the need for manual review of insurance claims and to increase the accuracy of subrogation predictions.[8] PolyAnalyst is also used to detect insurance fraud.[9]

Business Management

Two case studies have found that PolyAnalyst can be used to improve hotel management and customer service.[10][11] PolyAnalyst is also used to analyze product review data, warranty claims, customer comments, and other written customer feedback.[12] In one case, PolyAnalyst was used to build a tool to help a company evaluate its associates conversations with customers by rating their messages for factors such as professionalism, empathy, and correctness of response. The company reported to Forrester Research that the tool saved them around $11.8 million annually.[13]

Health care

PolyAnalyst is used by pharmaceutical companies to assist in pharmacovigilance. The software was used to design a tool that matches descriptions of adverse events to their proper MedDRA codes, determines if side-effects are serious or non-serious, and to set up cases for ongoing monitoring if needed.[14] PolyAnalyst has also been applied to discover new uses for existing drugs by text mining ClinicalTrials.gov[15] and to forecast the spread of the COVID-19 virus in the United States and Russia.[16][17]

Academic

PolyAnalyst is run on the SKIF Cyberia Supercomputer at Tomsk State University where researchers have used it to manage university endowment funds, to assess the university's social media image, and to create educational modules for the school of applied data analysis.[18] Polyanalyst has also been used by researchers at Vyatka State University to locate victims of spousal abuse through social media analysis.[19]
