The Leaders In Artificial Intelligence

M42-Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to incomprehensibly high-speed analytics of vast amounts of numbers, words and pixels, that is BIG Data. M42’s psychometric actionable Ai™ systematically and continually learns to identify specific patterns and yields precise decision options in real time. www.m42.com

In the application of identifying psychopathic behavior, fraud, corruption, or critical intelligence patterns, finding these behavioral patterns uses a wide range of math, computer programming techniques and tradecraft which yield the fraud, waste, and abuse patterns or behavioral patterns of criminals, enemies, or bad actors in big data. Both the number and specificity of these bad actor behavior patterns continue to be increasingly predictive as more big data is processed with hybrid Human-Ai

Healthcare fraud, waste, and abuse is estimated at $350B in the USA. M42 identifies those patterns and allows for the elimination of the underlying crimes while saving money and allowing for a contingent recovery of the fraudulent payments, using “white shoe” law firms.

Identifying the bad actor behavior typologies provides the basis to construct the underlying decision networks of the criminals, which serves both to increase prediction as well as developing employee training programs with the goal of significantly minimizing future bad acts. This understanding of how the decision-framing process functions combined with graphical presentation format, essentially a common decision language, becomes a model that is stored in iconic memory – a decision picture in the mind. M42 psychometric Ai has been in private use since the early 1990’s and has resulted in compounded investment returns over 35 years in excess of 90% per annum compounded on hundreds of M & A transactions.

M42-AI Platform includes a hybrid hardware architecture (cloud based and on premise) and the software framework that allows the analysis of years of healthcare cost data, in a totally anonymous fashion. This BIG DATA data base is updated with each new data set, which increases the AI learning and fraud-identifying function.

M42 is the only company that can perform these kinds of analytics as our methods and cocktail of math’s and natural language processing (NLP) skills are proprietary and patented. The recent evolution of computing power permitting the analysis of vast amounts of data has powered up M42 to new levels of performance and opportunity. M42 does not do sampling. It examines each individual datapoint in a dataset because it can, making the accuracy of our conclusions for our clients near statistically perfect. M42’s commercial offering includes a contingent pay claw back of fraudulent gains from the irresponsible parties.

M42’s math is agnostic and can be applied to virtually any problem involving the detection of patterns in Big Data. In addition to fraud, waste, and abuse, M42 finds crime rings, drug dealers, detects and predicts addiction and is accurate in finding the factors leading to suicide as well as the precursors of planned terrorism or random attacks. M42 also uses its behavioral Ai in recruiting in the workplace, sports, and in the special operations arena, as well as product marketing.

In those behavioral patterns the cocktail of maths reveals insights otherwise not detectable by traditional analytics or human capabilities. M42 Ai i
