Magnum Opus: Setting New Standards in Exploratory Rule Discovery

Magnum Opus delivers the power of the most recent advances in rule discovery technology.  With unrivaled flexibility and ease-of-use, it finds new and unanticipated rules from data. Use Magnum Opus to unlock the wealth of information implicit within your data.

Magnum Opus employs unique k-most-interesting rule discovery techniques.  Tell Magnum Opus what makes a rule interesting to you and how many rules you would like.   Magnum Opus delivers the rules that are most interesting according to the measure that you select.  Magnum Opus does all the hard work but lets you make all the decisions.

Other systems either employ undisclosed proprietary heuristics that select a few rules for you, or indiscriminately present countless rules that bury the gems amongst the dross.  In contrast, Magnum Opus will always deliver exactly the rules that maximize the interestingness measure that you select, within whatever other constraints you choose.  These further constraints include unrivalled facilities for detecting and discarding spurious rules.

Magnum Opus is the only system that supports statistically sound rule discovery.

Some important features:

  • Magnum Opus is easy to use and does not presume advanced knowledge of statistics or machine learning.
  • Magnum Opus rules are expressed in a form that is simple to understand.
  • Magnum Opus includes a unique facility to automatically filter out spurious rules.
  • Unlike other rule discovery systems, Magnum Opus does not rely on sparse data for efficient processing.
  • Magnum Opus finds rules from both transaction data and attribute-value data.
  • Magnum Opus has been designed to analyze substantial databases containing millions of records.
  • Magnum Opus is fast. It has linear compute time. If the amount of data is doubled then the compute time will approximately double (unless the available physical memory is exceeded - use of virtual memory may increase compute time considerably).
  • Magnum Opus is flexible.  The different search options support a wide range of differing analytic objectives.
