Abstract

Systems and methods for feature-based alert triggering are disclosed herein. The system can include memory including a model database containing a machine-learning algorithm. The system can include a user device that can receive inputs from a user; and at least one server. The at least one server can: receive electrical signals from the user device, the electrical signals corresponding to a plurality of user inputs provided to the user device; automatically generate input-based features from the received electrical signals; input the input-based features into the machine-learning algorithm; automatically and directly generate a risk prediction with the machine-learning algorithm from the input-based features; and generate and display an alert when the risk prediction exceeds a threshold value.

Claims (33)

1 . A method of triggering an alert with a computing system, the method comprising:

receiving electrical signals corresponding to a plurality of user inputs to a computing system;

automatically generating input-based features from the received electrical signals;

inputting the input-based features into a machine-learning algorithm;

automatically and directly generating a risk prediction with the machine-learning algorithm from the input-based features; and

generating and displaying an alert when the risk prediction exceeds a threshold value.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein at least some of the input-based features are meaningful features.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the meaningful features are generated from substance identified in the received electrical signals.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein at least some of the input-based features are non-meaningful features.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the non-meaningful features are independent of the substance identified in the received electrical signals.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the features comprise at least two from: a Hurst coefficient; a percent correct on first try; an average score; an average part score; a number of attempted parts; an average number of attempted parts; and an aggregation parameter.

7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising: generating a response from the received electrical signals; and automatically evaluating the response according to stored evaluation data.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the meaningful features are generated based on the generated response.

9 . The method of claim 7 , wherein at least some of the meaningful features are generated based on the generated response and the evaluation of the response.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the machine-learning algorithm comprises at least one of: a Random Forrest algorithm; an AdaBoost algorithm; a Naïve Bayes algorithm; Boosting Tree, and a Support Vector Machine.

11 . A system for triggering an alert, the system comprising:

memory comprising a model database containing a machine-learning algorithm, wherein the machine-learning algorithm is configured to generate a risk prediction based on inputted features;

a user device configured to receive inputs from a user; and

at least one server configured to:

receive electrical signals from the user device, the electrical signals corresponding to a plurality of user inputs provided to the user device;

automatically generate input-based features from the received electrical signals;

input the input-based features into the machine-learning algorithm;

automatically and directly generate a risk prediction with the machine-learning algorithm from the input-based features; and

generate and display an alert when the risk prediction exceeds a threshold value.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein at least some of the input-based features are meaningful features.

13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the meaningful features are generated from substance identified in the received electrical signals.

14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein at least some of the input-based features are non-meaningful features.

15 . The system of claim 14 , wherein the non-meaningful features are independent of the substance identified in the received electrical signals.

16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the features comprise at least two from: a Hurst coefficient; a percent correct on first try; an average score; an average part score; a number of attempted parts; an average number of attempted parts; and an aggregation parameter.

17 . The system of claim 16 , wherein the at least one server is further configured to: generate a response from the received electrical signals; and automatically evaluate the response according to stored evaluation data, wherein the alert comprises a graphical depiction of the risk prediction.

18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the meaningful features are generated based on the generated response.

19 . The system of claim 17 , wherein at least some of the meaningful features are generated based on the generated response and the evaluation of the response.
