Multiple categories of data elements may be related in training data according to various correlations; correlations may indicate causative and/or predictive links between categories of data elements, which may be modeled as relationships such as mathematical relationships by machine-learning processes 120 as described in further detail below. Training data may be formatted and/or organized by categories of data elements, for instance by associating data elements with one or more descriptors corresponding to categories of data elements. As a non-limiting example, training data may include data entered in standardized forms by persons or processes, such that entry of a given data element in a given field in a form may be mapped to one or more descriptors of categories. Elements in training data may be linked to descriptors of categories by tags, tokens, or other data elements; for instance, and without limitation, training data may be provided in fixed-length formats, formats linking positions of data to categories such as comma-separated value (CSV) formats and/or self-describing formats such as extensible markup language (XML), enabling processes or devices to detect categories of data.

Alternatively or additionally, and still referring to FIG. 1, training data may include one or more elements that are not categorized; that is, training data may not be formatted or contain descriptors for some elements of data. Machine-learning algorithms and/or other processes may sort training data according to one or more categorizations using, for instance, natural language processing algorithms, tokenization, detection of correlated values in raw data and the like; categories may be generated using correlation and/or other processing algorithms. As a non-limiting example, in a corpus of text, phrases making up a number “n” of compound words, such as nouns modified by other nouns, may be identified according to a statistically significant prevalence of n-grams containing such words in a particular order; such an n-gram may be categorized as an element of language such as a “word” to be tracked similarly to single words, generating a new category as a result of statistical analysis. Similarly, in a data entry including some textual data, a person's name may be identified by reference to a list, dictionary, or other compendium of terms, permitting ad-hoc categorization by machine-learning algorithms, and/or automated association of data in the data entry with descriptors or into a given format. The ability to categorize data entries automatedly may enable the same training data to be made applicable for two or more distinct machine-learning algorithms as described in further detail below.

Naïve Bayes classification algorithm may include generating a family of algorithms that assume that the value of a particular element is independent of the value of any other element, given a class variable. Naïve Bayes classification algorithm may be based on Bayes Theorem expressed as P(A/B)≡P(B/A) P(A)−P(B), where P(A/B) is the probability of hypothesis A given data B also known as posterior probability; P(B/A) is the probability of data B given that the hypothesis A was true; P(A) is the probability of hypothesis A being true regardless of data also known as prior probability of A; and P(B) is the probability of the data regardless of the hypothesis. A naïve Bayes algorithm may be generated by first transforming training data into a frequency table. Computing device 104 may then calculate a likelihood table by calculating probabilities of different data entries and classification labels. Computing device 104 may utilize a naïve Bayes equation to calculate a posterior probability for each class. A class containing the highest posterior probability is the outcome of prediction.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 may be configured to generate process classifier 128 using a K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm. A “K-nearest neighbors algorithm” as used in this disclosure, includes a classification method that utilizes feature similarity to analyze how closely out-of-sample-features resemble training data to classify input data to one or more clusters and/or categories of features as represented in training data; this may be performed by representing both training data and input data in vector forms, and using one or more measures of vector similarity to identify classifications within training data, and to determine a classification of input data. K-nearest neighbors algorithm may include specifying a K-value, or a number directing the classifier to select the k most similar entries training data to a given sample, determining the most common classifier of the entries in the database, and classifying the known sample; this may be performed recursively and/or iteratively to generate a classifier that may be used to classify input data as further samples. For instance, an initial set of samples may be performed to cover an initial heuristic and/or “first guess” at an output and/or relationship, which may be seeded, without limitation, using expert input received according to any process as described herein. As a non-limiting example, an initial heuristic may include a ranking of associations between inputs and elements of training data. Heuristic may include selecting some number of highest-ranking associations and/or training data elements.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, generating k-nearest neighbors algorithm may generate a first vector output containing a data entry cluster, generating a second vector output containing an input data, and calculate the distance between the first vector output and the second vector output using any suitable norm such as cosine similarity, Euclidean distance measurement, or the like. Each vector output may be represented, without limitation, as an n-tuple of values, where n is at least two values. Each value of n-tuple of values may represent a measurement or other quantitative value associated with a given category of data, or attribute, examples of which are provided in further detail below; a vector may be represented, without limitation, in n-dimensional space using an axis per category of value represented in n-tuple of values, such that a vector has a geometric direction characterizing the relative quantities of attributes in the n-tuple as compared to each other. Two vectors may be considered equivalent where their directions, and/or the relative quantities of values within each vector as compared to each other, are the same; thus, as a non-limiting example, a vector represented as [5, 10, 15] may be treated as equivalent, for purposes of this disclosure, as a vector represented as [1, 2, 3]. Vectors may be more similar where their directions are more similar, and more different where their directions are more divergent; however, vector similarity may alternatively or additionally be determined using averages of similarities between like attributes, or any other measure of similarity suitable for any n-tuple of values, or aggregation of numerical similarity measures for the purposes of loss functions as described in further detail below. Any vectors as described herein may be scaled, such that each vector represents each attribute along an equivalent scale of values. Each vector may be “normalized,” or divided by a “length” attribute, such as a length attribute l as derived using a Pythagorean norm:

$l=\sqrt{{\sum }_{i=0}^n{a}_i^2},$ where a_i is attribute number i of the vector. Scaling and/or normalization may function to make vector comparison independent of absolute quantities of attributes, while preserving any dependency on similarity of attributes; this may, for instance, be advantageous where cases represented in training data are represented by different quantities of samples, which may result in proportionally equivalent vectors with divergent values. As a non-limiting example, K-nearest neighbors algorithm may be configured to classify an input vector including a plurality of user-entered words and/or phrases, user selections, and/or elements of physiological data to clusters representing machine-learning processes 120.

Still referring to FIG. 1, computing device 104 may additionally be configured to select at least a machine-learning process 120 as a function of biological extraction 108. For instance, a classifier may be generated, for instance using classification algorithms and/or training data as described above, that inputs biological extraction 108 and outputs at least a machine-learning process 120. This may be based, without limitation, on one or more identified mental, emotional, psychological, and/or physiological needs of user as identified by and/or in biological extraction 108 such needs may include, without limitation, diagnoses, disabilities, or other conditions affecting learning ability, such as learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, dyslexia. Identification of needs may be performed, without limitation by generation of one or more prognostic labels, for instance as described in U.S. Nonprovisional application Ser. No. 16/372,512, filed on Apr. 2, 2019, and titled “METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR UTILIZING DIAGNOSTICS FOR INFORMED VIBRANT CONSTITUTIONAL GUIDANCE,” the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference. Identification of needs may be performed using a user effective age, which may be calculated as described in U.S. Nonprovisional application Ser. No. 16/558,502, filed on Sep. 3, 2019, and entitled “SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SELECTING AN INTERVENTION BASED ON EFFECTIVE AGE,” the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference. In an embodiment, computing device 104 may generate a first set of one or more machine-learning processes 120 as a function of educational inquiry, generate a second set of one or more machine-learning processes 120 as a function of biological extraction 108, and combine the first set and the second set as the at least a machine-learning process 120; combination may include detecting that two of the selected machine-learning processes 120 are duplicates and eliminating one of the two selected machine-learning processes 120. Alternatively or additionally, process classifier 128 may take combinations of physiological data and educational inquiry data as inputs and output machine-learning processes 120. Selection of at least a machine-learning process 120 may alternatively or additionally be performed using any machine-learning process 120 described in this disclosure. Alternatively or additionally, user may one or more criteria according to which user wishes to evaluate and/or rank options, which computing device 104 may use to select at least a machine-learning process 120, for instance by retrieval from process database 124 and/or using process classifier 128.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to generate, using the at least a machine-learning process 120 and the biological extraction 108, an inquiry response 136. An “inquiry response,” as used in this disclosure, is an element of data containing a recommended educational decision, such as a recommended educational decision that answers a question and/or request for guidance in an educational inquiry. As a non-limiting example, an educational inquiry that contains a question regarding what a user should major in at college may cause computing device 104 to generate, using at least a machine-learning process 120 a response that contains a ranked list of majors the user should consider majoring in, an educational inquiry that contains a question regarding what school a user should attend may cause computing device 104 to generate, using at least a machine-learning process 120 a response that lists a recommended school and/or a ranked list of schools. As a further non-limiting example, an educational inquiry that contains a question regarding what style of instruction a user should receive may cause computing device 104 to generate, using at least a machine-learning process 120, a response that recommends an instructional style and/or a ranked list of instructional styles.

Biological extraction training data 140 may be received in any suitable form, including as user entries ranking options according to any or all criteria described above; such user entries may be combined and/or correlated with user biological extraction 108 data. Biological extraction training data 140 may include descriptions of services, facilities, class formats, class sizes, mode of delivery of instruction, mental health support facilities and/or programs, special needs support and/or programs, learning disability support and/or programs, or the like, which may be associated and/or correlated with user entries and/or biological extractions 108 as described above. Biological extraction training data 140 may include expert entries describing programs and/or facilities needed and/or desirable for given elements and/or sets of physiological data; expert entries may be generated and/or received according to any process for reception of expert entries described in this disclosure and/or in any disclosure incorporated herein by reference. Persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various alternative or additional entries and/or data usable as biological extraction training data 140 may be provided.

Still referring to FIG. 1, selection of at least a machine-learning process 120 may include selection of a machine-learning model, a training data set to be used in a machine-learning algorithm and/or to produce a machine-learning model, and/or a machine-learning algorithm such as lazy-learning and/or model production, or the like. Computing device 104 may be designed and configured to create a machine-learning model using techniques for development of linear regression models. Linear regression models may include ordinary least squares regression, which aims to minimize the square of the difference between predicted outcomes and actual outcomes according to an appropriate norm for measuring such a difference (e.g. a vector-space distance norm); coefficients of the resulting linear equation may be modified to improve minimization. Linear regression models may include ridge regression methods, where the function to be minimized includes the least-squares function plus term multiplying the square of each coefficient by a scalar amount to penalize large coefficients. Linear regression models may include least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) models, in which ridge regression is combined with multiplying the least-squares term by a factor of 1 divided by double the number of samples. Linear regression models may include a multi-task lasso model wherein the norm applied in the least-squares term of the lasso model is the Frobenius norm amounting to the square root of the sum of squares of all terms. Linear regression models may include the elastic net model, a multi-task elastic net model, a least angle regression model, a LARS lasso model, an orthogonal matching pursuit model, a Bayesian regression model, a logistic regression model, a stochastic gradient descent model, a perceptron model, a passive aggressive algorithm, a robustness regression model, a Huber regression model, or any other suitable model that may occur to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure. Linear regression models may be generalized in an embodiment to polynomial regression models, whereby a polynomial equation (e.g. a quadratic, cubic or higher-order equation) providing a best predicted output/actual output fit is sought; similar methods to those described above may be applied to minimize error functions, as will be apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 1, machine-learning algorithms may include, without limitation, linear discriminant analysis. Machine-learning algorithm may include quadratic discriminate analysis. Machine-learning algorithms may include kernel ridge regression.

Machine-learning algorithms may include cross-decomposition algorithms, including partial least squares and/or canonical correlation analysis. Machine-learning algorithms may include naïve Bayes methods. Machine-learning algorithms may include algorithms based on decision trees, such as decision tree classification or regression algorithms. Machine-learning algorithms may include ensemble methods such as bagging meta-estimator, forest of randomized tress, AdaBoost, gradient tree boosting, and/or voting classifier methods. Machine-learning algorithms may include neural net algorithms, including convolutional neural net processes.

Still referring to FIG. 1, models may be generated using alternative or additional artificial intelligence methods, including without limitation by creating an artificial neural network, such as a convolutional neural network comprising an input layer of nodes, one or more intermediate layers, and an output layer of nodes. Connections between nodes may be created via the process of “training” the network, in which elements from a training dataset are applied to the input nodes, a suitable training algorithm (such as Levenberg-Marquardt, conjugate gradient, simulated annealing, or other algorithms) is then used to adjust the connections and weights between nodes in adjacent layers of the neural network to produce the desired values at the output nodes. This process is sometimes referred to as deep learning. This network may be trained using training data.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 1, machine-learning algorithms may include supervised machine-learning algorithms. Supervised machine learning algorithms, as defined herein, include algorithms that receive a training set relating a number of inputs to a number of outputs, and seek to find one or more mathematical relations relating inputs to outputs, where each of the one or more mathematical relations is optimal according to some criterion specified to the algorithm using some scoring function. For instance, a supervised learning algorithm may include elements of physiological data as described above as inputs, inquiry responses 136 as outputs, and a scoring function representing a desired form of relationship to be detected between inputs and outputs; scoring function may, for instance, seek to maximize the probability that a given input and/or combination of elements inputs is associated with a given output to minimize the probability that a given input is not associated with a given output. Scoring function may be expressed as a risk function representing an “expected loss” of an algorithm relating inputs to outputs, where loss is computed as an error function representing a degree to which a prediction generated by the relation is incorrect when compared to a given input-output pair provided in training data. Persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various possible variations of supervised machine learning algorithms that may be used to determine relation between inputs and outputs. Supervised machine-learning processes 120 may include classification algorithms as defined above.

Still referring to FIG. 1, machine learning processes may include unsupervised processes. An unsupervised machine-learning process 120, as used herein, is a process that derives inferences in datasets without regard to labels; as a result, an unsupervised machine-learning process 120 may be free to discover any structure, relationship, and/or correlation provided in the data. Unsupervised processes may not require a response variable; unsupervised processes may be used to find interesting patterns and/or inferences between variables, to determine a degree of correlation between two or more variables, or the like.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, machine-learning processes 120 as described in this disclosure may be used to generate machine-learning models. A machine-learning model, as used herein, is a mathematical representation of a relationship between inputs and outputs, as generated using any machine-learning process 120 including without limitation any process as described above, and stored in memory; an input is submitted to a machine-learning model once created, which generates an output based on the relationship that was derived. For instance, and without limitation, a linear regression model, generated using a linear regression algorithm, may compute a linear combination of input data using coefficients derived during machine-learning processes 120 to calculate an output datum. As a further non-limiting example, a machine-learning model may be generated by creating an artificial neural network, such as a convolutional neural network comprising an input layer of nodes, one or more intermediate layers, and an output layer of nodes. Connections between nodes may be created via the process of “training” the network, in which elements from a training dataset are applied to the input nodes, a suitable training algorithm (such as Levenberg-Marquardt, conjugate gradient, simulated annealing, or other algorithms) is then used to adjust the connections and weights between nodes in adjacent layers of the neural network to produce the desired values at the output nodes. This process is sometimes referred to as deep learning.

Still referring to FIG. 1, at least a machine-learning process 120 may include a lazy-learning process and/or protocol, which may alternatively be referred to as a “lazy loading” or “call-when-needed” process and/or protocol, may be a process whereby machine learning is conducted upon receipt of an input to be converted to an output, by combining the input and training set to derive the algorithm to be used to produce the output on demand. For instance, an initial set of simulations may be performed to cover an initial heuristic and/or “first guess” at an output and/or relationship. As a non-limiting example, an initial heuristic may include a ranking of associations between inputs and elements of training data. Heuristic may include selecting some number of highest-ranking associations and/or training data elements. Lazy learning may implement any suitable lazy learning algorithm, including without limitation a K-nearest neighbors algorithm, a lazy naïve Bayes algorithm, or the like; persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various lazy-learning algorithms that may be applied to generate outputs as described in this disclosure, including without limitation lazy learning applications of machine-learning algorithms as described in further detail below.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, at least a machine learning process may include a process classifying and/or scoring options according to any criterion used for and/or referred to in any educational inquiry. For instance, and without limitation, at least a machine-learning process 120 may include a mental health suitability classification process and/or scoring algorithm that scores and/or classifies options according to quality and/or availability of mental health supports and/or protocols, as needed by or necessary given biological extraction 108, and/or according to degree of mental health issues in a student body as relevant to biological extraction 108. As a further example, at least a machine-learning process 120 may include a special needs suitability classification process and/or scoring algorithm that scores and/or classifies options according to quality and/or availability of special needs supports and/or protocols, as needed by or necessary given biological extraction 108. As a further example, at least a machine-learning process 120 may include a disability accommodation suitability classification process and/or scoring algorithm that scores and/or classifies options according to quality and/or availability of disability accommodations such as without limitation learning disability accommodations, as needed by or necessary given biological extraction 108.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 1, where at least a machine-learning process 120 is a single process, inquiry response 136 may be presented to user, for instance by presentation of a recommended institution, major, class, instruction style, or learning environment, and/or a ranked list thereof. Where at least a machine-learning process 120 includes a plurality of machine-learning processes 120, computing device 104 may combine outputs thereof to generate educational inquiry. For instance, computing device 104 and/or process classifier 128 as described above may select a first machine-learning process 120 to recommend one or more educational institutions based on suitability of instruction format for a user, a second machine-learning process 120 to recommend one or more educational institutions based on a degree of mental health support, a third machine-learning process 120 to recommend one or more educational institutions based on a degree of support for a given learning disability and/or special need, and/or one or more additional machine-learning processes 120. Each process may produce a recommendation, for instance using a classifier as described above, and/or may produce a score, such as an output of a regression model and/or a degree of proximity in a classifier such as a KNN model and/or lazy-learning process as described above. Scores output by each machine-learning process 120 of at least a machine-learning process 120 may be used in combination to generate a recommendation and/or a ranked list of options. Use of outputs in combination may include calculation of an aggregate score, for instance by adding, multiplying, or averaging scores; options may be ranked by aggregate score and/or an option having a maximal aggregate score may be selected. Individual outputs may alternatively or additionally be presented to a user by category.

Alternatively or additionally, and still referring to FIG. 1, each score corresponding to an option may be used as an attribute of a vector as described above, and proximity of each such vector to a user vector of ideal or optimal values for a user may be calculated using any measure of vector distance as described above; options may be ranked according to degree of proximity to the user vector. User vector may be determined by recording one or more user preferences and quantifying such user preferences as elements of user vector; a user preference may be recorded and quantified per attribute of vectors associated with options. For instance, a graphical user interface may display at user device options to rate one or more priorities absolutely and/or relatively to each other, for instance by providing a numerical rating scale with radio buttons and/or drop-down lists, sliders where a user may set relative importance along a continuum for each user vector attribute, and/or textual entry fields wherein a user may enter numbers reflecting user's personal degree of importance for each field.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, each option of the plurality of options includes an option vector including a plurality of option vector entries; option vector, in any given embodiment, may have entries corresponding to entries in user vector. For instance, and without limitation, each option element may have an associated vector, which may be chosen as a subset of attributes of option element listed in a database, where each attribute indicates an effect each option element has on an attribute in user vector. In an embodiment, selecting and/or ranking one or more options may include generating a loss function of the plurality of options and the user vector, minimizing the loss function, and selecting an option from the plurality of options as a function of minimizing the loss function. A “loss function” as used herein is an expression of an output of which an optimization algorithm minimizes to generate an optimal result. As a non-limiting example, computing device 104 may select an option having an associated vector that minimizes a measure of difference from user vector; measure of difference may include, without limitation, a measure of geometric divergence between option vector and user vector, such as without limitation cosine similarity or may include any suitable error function measuring any degree of divergence and/or aggregation of degrees of divergence, between attributes of user heath quality vector and option vectors. Selection of different loss functions may result in identification of different options as generating minimal outputs. Alternatively or additionally, each of user vector and each option vector may be represented by a mathematical expression having the same form as mathematical expression; computing device 104 may compare the former to the latter using an error function representing average difference between the two mathematical expressions. Error function may, as a non-limiting example, be calculated using the average difference between coefficients corresponding to each variable. An option having a mathematical expression minimizing the error function may be selected, as representing an optimal expression of relative importance of variables to a system or user. In an embodiment, error function and loss function calculations may be combined; for instance, a variable resulting in a minimal aggregate expression of error function and loss function, such as a simple addition, arithmetic mean, or the like of the error function with the loss function, may be selected, corresponding to an option that minimizes total variance from optimal variables while simultaneously minimizing a degree of variance from a set of priorities corresponding to variables. Coefficients of mathematical expression and/or loss function may be scaled and/or normalized; this may permit comparison and/or error function calculation to be performed without skewing by varied absolute quantities of numbers. Server may select a plurality of options to user; for instance, ranking may be maintained of options according to a degree to which they minimize loss function, and a number of highest-ranking options, such as the ten highest ranking options or the like, may be selected. Alternatively or additionally, relative ranking, one or more scores produced by machine-learning processes 120, and/or an aggregate score may be displayed to user along with an option, for instance if the user has selected that option. As a non-limiting example, if a user has selected and/or searched for a particular institution, major, program, or the like, one or more scores and/or rankings associated with the particular institution, major, program, or the like may be displayed to the user.

In an embodiment, and with continued reference to FIG. 1, user vector and vectors associated with options may include one or more attributes generated using at least a machine-learning process 120 and one or more additional attributes; one or more additional attributes may be retrieved and/or received in any suitable manner, including without limitation storage in a database listing such attributes. One or more additional attributes may be provided, for instance, by educational institutions, ranking bodies, third-party information sources, or the like. Such additional attributes may include, without limitation, cost of tuition, housing, materials, or the like, geographic location, academic reputation and/or ranking, degree of difficulty of study in terms of hours per week required or the like, acceptance and/or graduation percentages, programs offered, services offered, and/or any other criterion used to select educational institutions, and/or any other quantifiable attributes usable for and/or suitable for selection of options such as educational institutions, courses of study, or the like as described above. As a non-limiting example, user and option vectors may contain a single output of a single machine-learning process 120, for instance selected based on a user entry, and one or more additional attributes; determination of proximity of option vectors to user vector and selection, scoring, and/or ranking thereby may be performed as described above.
