Abstract
Systems and methods for creating predictor variables from unstructured data for prediction models are provided. A variable creation application receives unstructured data and processing the unstructured data to generate processed data. Based on the processed data, the variable creation application generates an attribute pool that contains multiple predictor variables generated by applying natural language processing (NLP) procedures on the processed data. The variable creation application further executes a prediction model on at least the predictor variables in the attribute pool to generate a prediction result. Based on the prediction result, the variable creation application evaluates the predictive power of each of the predictor variables and retains predictor variables that are predictive as input predictor variables for the prediction model.
