An exclusive announcement detailing contest structure is coming to Predictive Analytics World – March 14-15 in San Francisco – from the producers of the forthcoming Heritage Health Prize data mining competition.
Data competitions come of age: from movie recommendations to life and death. Possibly the biggest news in predictive modeling in 2011 is Heritage Provider Network's $3 million predictive modeling prize – the biggest data mining competition ever. It requires data scientists to build algorithms that predict who will go to hospital in the next year, so that preventive action can be taken. We will take this opportunity to release new information on contest's timeline and intermediate progress prizes.
Speaker: Robert O'Keefe, Corporate Senior VP, Heritage Provider Network
