| abstract |
A prediction processing system, method, and method for doing business is disclosed. The prediction processing system can collect, process, and publish event-outcome information. The prediction processing system can dynamically filter participants into groupings and iteratively optimize odds calculations over time. A proposal framework consisting of a various abstract proposal types can model and settle propositions. Game propositions can be automatically generated based on event categorization relationships, and users can themselves automatically establish their own game proposition and programs. The prediction processing system can provide game players or others with access to collective intelligence, including prediction information and information derived from prediction information. The prediction processing system can create groupings of better-performing predictors and provide them with information not generally available or additional stakes to increase the weight of their predictions in odds calculations. The prediction processing system can provide access to event-outcome information on a for-fee subscription basis. |
