Information Design & Modelling

Information Design is about processing signals and data into information in such a way that the best possible, safe and valid decisions can be made efficiently and effectively based on them. This applies equally

  • to support any human decision-making,
  • for automated decision-making in control systems,
  • for the development and operation of AI-based systems.

The trick here is that through clever definition of the information content with a minimal set of data, clear, unambiguous, optimal decisions can be made reliably in all relevant situations.

In addition to taking into account suitable domain knowledge, ANDATA has its own approach to information design based on appropriate machine learning methods in so-called systematic "feature engineering".
