The SNP Solution

After a deep engagement with the client to define their business objectives and challenges, SNP proposed a production architecture that included:

  • Azure Machine Learning (Cortana Intelligence Suite) to predict charge-off from site data.
  • Develop file share for uploading site visit data in CSV or Excel format extracted from electronic PDFs and inspection pictures.
  • Schedule job to move data from file share to blob storage at a pre-defined time.
  • Generate initial tag dictionary to store unique tags for processing historical images.
  • Create a business rules engine - an interface for creating new business rules.
  • Create an Azure learning API model for testing.
