Lux Magi News

Lux Magi uses DMN and the Scikit Learn Library to create a decision that used machine learning to reach a decision and then corrected bias in the decision using decision modelling.

“This is the first example of it’s kind,” said Lux Magi head of Research and Development, Jan Purchase. “Although the machine learning model has been biased by its training data (a common problem in AI) the decision model corrects this bias in a completely accountable way providing an interpretable and fair outcome.“

Lux Magi’s Jan Purchase has been invited to chair the Decision Automation Organisation’s DMN On-Ramp Committee. The Committee is building resources to help businesses decide how decision modelling and managament can best address their problems and a compliance framework for DMN tools to meet these needs.

“The DMN On-Ramp will make it clear how businesses can automate their business decisions and the tools they’ll need to do it.”

In conjunction with partner Rapidgen, Lux Magi’s Jan Purchase will be presenting at the IRM Business Analyst Conference Europe 2020 on how machine learning and decision management make a power combination. A recording is available here.

Learn more about the benefits of this partnership and how decision management mitigates many of the risks of machine learning projects.

Our presentation Explaining the Unexplainable: Using DMN to Justify the Outcomes of Black-box Analytics shows, by example, how DMN decision models can be used to explain the behaviour and outcomes of classification analytics and explains the pros and cons of the approach.

Our presentation High-Performance Decision Model Execution by Compilation of DMN into Machine Code will show why performance is increasingly important as market requirements, multiplying data sources and ever more sophisticated business needs conspire to increase the processing burden for decisions. We’ll explain how mega-decisions per second can be realised on modest hardware and give a performance demonstration of a complex 50-node, financial decision in DMN.

From better integration of predictive analytics into a business  process to improving the transparency and agility of your business’s key decisions, there has never been a better time to learn Decision Modeling and Decision Management.
