IBM® SPSS® Modeler Entity Analytics add s a completely new dimension to IBM® SPSS®
Modeler predictive analytics. Whereas predictive analytics attempts to predict future behavior
from past data, entity analytics focuses on improving the coherence and consistency of current

detectio n, anti-money laundering, and n ational and international security.

determine which people are most affected by other network participants. By combining these
results with other measur es, you can c r eate comprehensive proles of individuals on which to
base your predictive models. Models that include this social information will perform better than
models that do not.

Language Processing (NLP) to rapidly process a large variety of unstructured text data, extract

ese concepts into categories. Ext r acted concepts and
