Inference engine

IBM® Surveillance Insight® for Financial Services contains an implementation of a Bayesian inference engine that helps in deciding whether an alert needs to be created for a set of evidences available on a specific date.

The inference engine takes the risk model (in JSON format) and the scores for each risk indicator that is referred to by the risk model as input. The output of the engine is a JSON response that gives the scores of the risk indicators and the conclusion of whether an alert needs to be created.
