Data Science and Predictive Analytics

RTI International turns data into actionable insights through a combination of predictive
analytics, modeling, and data visualization. Our data scientists use historic and real-time data
to make predictions of future events, inform decisions that will lead to optimal outcomes,
and classify new observations that can guide actions and target interventions.

The Business Need

RTI Subject Matter Expertise

Organizations across industries and governments around


the world are increasingly exposed to an unprecedented
volume, velocity, and variety of data, leading many to ask:

Leveraging our expertise in statistical, computer,


social, life, information, and engineering sciences, RTI
researchers and analytic consultants work in integrated,
multidisciplinary teams to solve complex problems for
diverse clients in such areas as

What technologies and platforms do we need to manage,


process, store, and distribute this data?
What analyses are possible with the data we have?

Consumer behavior patterns and trends

What data could we collect and analyze to fix problems,


accomplish objectives, and prevent crises?

Economic development and forecasting


Fraud detection (insurance and finance)

How do we know that our models are best? Can they


be independently validated, or improved?

Human resources and work force building and retention

Data Science and Predictive Analytics

Project Highlights
Violent Intent Modeling and Simulation (VIMS): Developed
a decision support tool for intelligence analysts that uses
modeling and simulation to interpret the motivations and
behaviors of violent groups and identify indicators that could
predict when a group will engage in politically motivated
violent behavior. (Department of Homeland Security)

Obesity Cost CalculatorTM: Created a tool to quantify


company medical expenditures and productivity costs
attributable to obesity (http://www.cdc.gov/leanworks/
costcalculator/index.html). An enhanced version of the tool
estimates the return on investment of potential weight loss
programs. (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)

Models of Infectious Disease Agent Study (MIDAS): Used


computational and mathematical models to understand
infectious disease dynamics, helping governments prepare for,
detect, and respond to infectious disease threats. (National
Institute of General Medical Sciences)

Dashboard 2030: Developed an online tool for the general


public and the business community to track North Carolinas
progress in economic development, business climate, and job
growth (https://ncdashboard.rti.org/). This interactive, mapbased tool includes indicators of progress in education and
talent supply, competitive business climate, entrepreneurship
and innovation, and infrastructure and growth leadership.
(NC Chamber Foundation)

RTI Synthetic Population: Created a geospatially explicit


database (http://synthpopviewer.rti.org/) representing
112M+ U.S. households and 280M+ individuals that
matches a set of sociodemographic characteristics from the
Census. An enhanced and scalable microsimulation engine
can predict the age of individuals and the size and structure
of households decades into the future to support agentbased simulations.
SIMPACTTM: Created a decision support tool that uses
predictive analytics to identify the specific life needs most
strongly related to employee retention by evaluating the
relationships between life needs, job impact, and job
satisfaction. (Outgrowth of a U.S. Navy project)
Omics studies: Identified patient profiles and predicted
outcomes using data from genome-wide scans, metagenomics,
proteomics, metabolomics, and next-generation sequencing.
(National Institutes of Health)
Working with RTI
RTI is a preapproved, federally qualified vendor within the
GSA schedule system, and we hold a number of IDIQs. In
the commercial sector, RTI offers competitive rates and
can work under multiple contract mechanisms. We keep
all data and results confidential, and we are experienced
in handling restricted data. RTI has systems in place that
meet FIPS 140-2 moderate security. We work equally well
in the cloud, our own computational environment, or any
other network.

Commercial Health Care Claims Data Analysis and


Reporting Services: Demonstrated that health information
technology enables quality, cost-efficiency, and population
health improvements. (Rhode Island Beacon Community
Program)
Prediction for Pesticide Surface Water Monitoring:
Extended time series methods to allow prediction of moving
averages of surface water pesticide concentrations using
infrequently sampled data. (Commercial client)
MobForestModel-based Random Forest Analysis: Created
an R software package that implements a random forest
method for model-based recursive partitioning to predict
which treatment is best for an individual patient. (National
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism and ARRA)
