Predictive informatics PI is the combination of predictive modeling and Informatics academic field informatics applied to healthcare, pharmaceutical, life sciences and business industries. Predictive informatics enables researchers, analysts, physicians and decision makers to aggregate and analyze disparate types of data, recognize patterns and trends within that data, and make more informed decisions in an effort to preemptively alter future outcomes. Current uses of PI Healthcare Over the past decade the increased usage of electronic health records has produced vast amounts of clinical data that is now computable. Predictive informatics integrates this data with other datasets e.g., genotypic, phenotypic in centralized and standardized data repositories upon which predictive analytics may be conducted. Pharmaceuticals The biopharmaceutical industry uses predictive informatics a superset of chemoinformatics to integrate information resources to transform data into knowledge in order to make better decisions faster in the area of drug lead identification and optimization. Systems biology Scientists involved in systems biology employ predictive informatics to integrate complex data about the interactions in biological systems from diverse experimental sources. Other uses Predictive informatics and analytics are also used in financial services, insurance, telecommunications, retail, and travel industries.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date November 2006 Predictive learning is a technique of machine learning in which an agent tries to build a model of its environment by trying out different actions in various circumstances. It uses knowledge of the effects its actions appear to have, turning them into planning operators. These allow the agent to act purposefully in its world. Predictive learning is one attempt to learn with a minimum of pre existing mental structure. It may have been inspired by Jean Piaget Piaget s account of how children construct knowledge of the world by interacting with it. Gary Drescher s book Made up Minds was seminal for the area.

A predictive dialer dials a list of telephone number s and connects answered dials to people making calls, often referred to as agents. Predictive dialers use statistical algorithm s to minimize the time that agents spend waiting between conversations, while minimizing the occurrence of someone answering when no agent is available. ref name Interfaces http www.jstor.org pss 25062520 Predictive Dialing for Outbound Telephone Call Centers , Douglas A. Samuelson, Interfaces, 29 5 September October, 1999 pp. 66 81 . ref When dialing numbers one at a time, there are two sources of delay. First, only some fraction of dials are answered. So, for example, if 1 out of 3 dials are answered, a predictive dialer might dial 3 lines every time an agent becomes available. Second, even dials that are answered take some time before being picked up. If it typically takes 10 seconds for someone to pick up, and conversations typically last 90 seconds, a predictive dialer might start dialing at 80 seconds. ref name Interfaces Dialing one number at a time, only when an agent is available, typically keeps agents utilized for 40 minutes per hour.

In psychometrics , predictive validity is the extent to which a test score score on a scale social sciences scale or test student assessment test predicts scores on some criterion measure. ref Cronbach, L.J., & Meehl, P.E. 1955 . Construct validity for psychological tests. Psychological Bulletin , 52 , 281 302. http psychclassics.yorku.ca Cronbach construct.htm ref For example, the Validity statistics validity of a cognitive test for job performance is the correlation between test scores and, for example, supervisor performance ratings. Such a cognitive test would have predictive validity if the observed correlation were statistically significant. Predictive validity shares similarities with concurrent validity in that both are generally measured as correlations between a test and some criterion measure. In a study of concurrent validity the test is administered at the same time as the criterion is collected. This is a common method of developing validity evidence for employment tests A test is administered to incumbent employees, then a rating of those employees job performance is obtained often, as noted above, in the form of a supervisor rating . Note the possibility for restriction of range both in test scores and performance scores The incumbent employees are likely to be a more homogeneous and higher performing group than the applicant pool at large. In a study of predictive validity, the test scores are collected first then at some later time the criterion measure is collected.

Predictive testing is a form of genetic testing . It is also known as presymptomatic testing . These types of testing are used to detect gene mutations associated with disorders that appear after birth, often later in life. These tests can be helpful to people who have a family member with a genetic disorder, but who have no features of the disorder themselves at the time of testing. Predictive testing can identify mutation s that increase a person s risk of developing disorders with a genetic basis, such as certain types of cancer . For example, an individual with a mutation in BRCA1 has a 65 cumulative risk of breast cancer. Presymptomatic testing can determine whether a person will develop a genetic disorder, such as hemochromatosis an iron overload disorder , before any signs or symptoms appear. The results of predictive and presymptomatic testing can provide information about a person s risk of developing a specific disorder and help with making decisions about medical care.

Predictive value of tests is the probability of a target condition for example a disease given by the result of a test, often in regard to medical test s. In cases where binary classification can be applied to the test results, such yes versus no, test target such as a substance, symptom or sign being present versus absent, or either a positive or negative test , then each of the two outcomes has a separate predictive value. For example, for positive or negative test, the predictive values are termed positive predictive value or negative predictive value , respectively. In cases where the test result is of a continuous value, the predictive value generally changes continuously along with the value. For example, for a pregnancy test that displays the urine concentration of Human chorionic gonadotropin hCG , the predictive value increases with increasing hCG value. A Binary classification artificial conversion of continuous values into binary values can be performed, such as designating a pregnancy test as positive above a certain cutoff reference value cutoff value , but this confers a loss of information and generally results in less accurate predictive values. dablink For more information on conversion and its disadvantages, see Binary classification artificial Artificial binary classification . medicine stub Category Medical tests es Valores predictivos ... more details

In statistics and diagnostic testing , the negative predictive value NPV is a summary statistic used to describe the performance of a diagnostic test ing procedure. It is defined as the proportion of subjects with a negative test result who are correctly diagnosed. A high NPV means that when the test yields a negative result, it is most likely correct in its assessment. In the familiar context of medical testing, a high NPV means that the test only rarely misclassifies a sick person as being healthy. Note that this says nothing about the tendency of the test to mistakenly classify a healthy person as being sick. Definition The Negative Predictive Value is defined as math rm NPV frac rm number of True Negatives rm number of True Negatives rm number of False Negatives frac rm number of True Negatives rm number of Negative calls math where a true negative is the event that the test makes a negative prediction, and the subject has a negative result under the gold standard, and a false negative is the event that the test makes a negative prediction, and the subject has a positive result under the gold standard.
