A computer-implemented system and method for predicting and flagging an anomaly entered in a digital form. A server computing device classifies a plurality of data fields of the digital form to identify a set of non-zero value data fields; and obtains an anomaly detection model comprising a statistical tree structure associated with the data field of the digital form. The server computing device receives datasets including a target value of a data field and values of a set of cohorting data features; traverses a statistical tree structure of the anomaly detection model with the target dataset to form a set of target cohorts to determine a target statistic value for the data field; flags the data field value of the target dataset as an anomaly item; and generates one or more confidence scores for a runtime prediction based on one or more variance changes for the data field.

A method for computer estimations based on statistical tree structures involves obtaining a statistical tree structure for reference elements. The statistical tree structure includes leaf nodes segmenting a statistic for a data label according to data features in the reference elements, and intermediate nodes connecting a first node to the leaf nodes. Each of the first node and the intermediate nodes provide a branching based on one of the data features. The method further includes obtaining target data, including values for the data features, and a value for the data label. The method also includes selecting the first node, associated with a first data feature, traversing the statistical tree structure to a leaf node by matching the values of the data features to the branching of the intermediate nodes, and assessing the value for the data label in the target data based on the statistic associated with the leaf node.
