What's AutoDiscovery?

What is AutoDiscovery?

AutoDiscovery is our intelligent, automated exploratory data analysis software (and professional service). Its primary function is to help researchers and data science teams identify hidden associations in their data that could lead to significant discoveries. By automating the data analysis process, AutoDiscovery reduces the time and effort required to sift through complex data sets, allowing researchers to focus on interpreting the results and making informed decisions.

How Does AutoDiscovery Work?

AutoDiscovery operates through a three-step process: 

1. Consolidate: The software begins by merging multiple data files into a single, comprehensive table. This integration ensures that all relevant data points are considered in the analysis.
2. Discover: AutoDiscovery then applies an exhaustive statistical procedure to evaluate potential cause-effect relationships within the data. This involves selecting and computing appropriate statistical tests for each variable, considering the nature of the data and the specific subsets it belongs to (e.g., different patient groups or experimental conditions).
3. Explore: The final step involves presenting the discovered associations in a user-friendly manner. Data scientists can browse through a detailed table of associations, complete with relevance and significance rankings, and export graphs, plots, and tables for further analysis or sharing.

Types of Exploratory Questions Addressed

AutoDiscovery is particularly adept at answering five key types of exploratory questions that researchers commonly face:

1. Role: Understanding the role of certain factors in the behavior of a system. For example, what role does neuronal structure play in learning and memory performance?  
2. Prediction: Identifying factors that can help model specific responses. For example, what genetic signatures predict the evolution of tumor size in cancer models?
3. Characterization: Describing the key factors that characterize experimental groups. For example, what factors characterize respondents by gender, age, psychological profile, and emotional condition?
4. Differentiation: Determining which responses differ according to a known factor. For example, what proteins are expressed differently in control group patients versus experimental group patients?
5. Thresholds: Identifying clinically relevant threshold values in biological processes. For example, at what magnesium concentration levels do we observe significant changes in patient outcomes?

Why is AutoDiscovery Valuable?

AutoDiscovery offers several advantages that make it a valuable tool for researchers and data scientists in general:

1. Efficiency and Speed: By automating data analysis, AutoDiscovery significantly reduces the time required to uncover important findings, enabling researchers to quickly generate high-level insights.
2. Comprehensive Analysis: Our software's ability to handle complex interactions and large datasets ensures that no potential association is overlooked.
3. User-Friendly: The intuitive interface and detailed reporting tools make it accessible for researchers with varying levels of statistical expertise.
4. Scientific Rigor: AutoDiscovery incorporates advanced statistical methods and ensures the traceability of results, maintaining the integrity and reproducibility of scientific research.
