Abstract
Described herein is a graphical intervention test development system. The graphical intervention test development system provides a graphical intervention test development environment that facilitates computer-based design of an intervention test. The graphical intervention test development environment provides a graphical user interface (GUI) and visualizations of various aspects of an intervention test therein. The graphical intervention test development environment further provides a control interface through which a user can manipulate control parameters that affect outcomes of the intervention test.
Core Innovation
The invention provides a graphical intervention test development system and a graphical intervention test development environment for computer-based design of an intervention test. The system includes a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that cause the processor to execute an intervention data module, a graphical processing module, and an intervention test control module. The intervention data module accesses a set of control parameters that indicate conditions for inclusion in the intervention test and accesses, from a database, data about potential test points as values of fields.
Using the data about the set of test points, the invention determines, for each condition, a number of the set of test points that meet the condition. The graphical processing module generates the graphical intervention test development environment that includes a graphical user interface (GUI) and receives GUI input indicating selection of the set of test points and selection of first control processing and second control processing to be performed using the data about the set of test points. In response to execution, the graphical processing module renders visualizations in the GUI.
The first visualization includes a plurality of graphical elements representing at least some conditions and indicating a determined number of the set of test points that meet each condition. The GUI receives input indicating an output measure of the intervention test, where the output measure comprises at least one of representativeness of a group, absolute test point count, and survival. The system identifies one or more of the control parameters that impact the output measure, updates the first visualization by including a control interface that allows user modification of the one or more control parameters, and executes the second control processing to render a second visualization indicating survival associated with the set of test points.
Claims Coverage
Independent claims are directed to a graphical intervention test development system, a method for providing a graphical intervention test development environment, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions for performing the method. The coverage centers on a GUI-based development environment that selects test points based on control-parameter conditions, counts qualifying test points per condition, and renders visualizations including a survival visualization, while using a user-selectable output measure to identify impacting control parameters and updating visualizations with a control interface for user modification.
Control parameters for inclusion conditions and database-based test point selection
Access a set of control parameters associated with the intervention test, the set of control parameters indicating conditions for inclusion in the intervention test; access, from a database storing data about potential test points as values of fields, data about a set of test points that meet the conditions indicated by the set of control parameters.
Counting qualifying test points per condition
Determine, for each condition of the set of conditions, using the data about the set of test points, a number of the set of test points that meet the condition.
GUI-based graphical intervention test development environment
Generate the graphical intervention test development environment comprising a graphical user interface (GUI); receive, through the GUI, input indicating selection of the set of test points and selection of first control processing to be performed using the data about the set of test points; execute the first control processing using the data about the set of test points.
Condition-based first visualization with graphical elements indicating determined counts
Render, in response to execution of the first control processing, a first visualization of the intervention test, the first visualization comprising a plurality of graphical elements each representing a respective one of at least some of the set of conditions and indicating a determined number of the set of test points that meet the condition.
Output measure selection and identification of impacting control parameters
Receive, through the GUI, input indicating an output measure of the intervention test; identify one or more of the set of control parameters that impact the output measure of the intervention test, wherein the output measure comprises at least one of representativeness, absolute test point count, and survival.
Control interface for user modification of impacting control parameters and visualization updating
Update the first visualization by including, in the first visualization, a control interface configured to allow user modification of the one or more control parameters that impact the output measure.
Second visualization rendering survival associated with the set of test points
Receive, through the GUI, input indicating selection of second control processing to be performed using the data about the set of test points, the second control processing comprising determining survival associated with the set of test points; execute the second control processing using the data; render, in the GUI in response to executing the second control processing, a second visualization indicating the survival associated with the set of test points.
The claims consistently cover a GUI-based intervention test development system that uses control parameters to define inclusion conditions, retrieves potential test point data from a database and counts test points meeting each condition, renders a first condition-based visualization, takes a user-selected output measure that includes representativeness, absolute test point count, and/or survival to identify impacting control parameters, updates the visualization with a control interface enabling user modification of those parameters, and executes second control processing to render a second visualization indicating survival for the selected set of test points.
