Evolver Technology

Genetics Squared provides life sciences solutions using EvolverTM, our proprietary technology, and related analytical methods. Evolver technology is based on genetic programming, a machine learning technique that produces mathematical models that describe a dataset based on what specific questions are being asked about that dataset. Evolver learns how to differentiate between various outcomes in the data by generating and then improving predictive rules through continually evolving programs. Fundamentally, the genetic programming process within Evolver finds, and refines, good solutions. Download details of the Evolver process.

The Problems Solved by Evolver

Technological advances in genomics and molecular pharmacology are providing tools to obtain a much more comprehensive picture of a person's genetic and molecular makeup. Similar advancements in proteomics technology also now allow the analysis of specific tissue and plasma protein expression levels and post-translational modifications as well as examination of the entire proteome. These advancements in the technology used to generate data are creating vast and complex amounts of data that far outstrip conventional abilities to properly analyze and extract practical information.


data growth

Most approaches to analyzing data require either the available data be reduced to a comparatively small number of variables before being analyzed, or the structure of the solution be forced to match what is easy to develop mathematically. This introduces biases, does not take advantage of all the available, relevant information, and may require a large number of inputs to make a reliable prediction. Typical statistical and other analytical methods are ineffective at solving the massive data problem.

Evolver Integrates and Analyzes Vast and Diverse Amounts of Complex Data

Evolver helps achieve successful diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic development by integrating relevant and complex information from large, diverse data sets, and by correctly identifying the most dominant parameters and relationships that reproducibly define patient populations.

The value of Evolver, and our related analytical methods, is that we discover reliable signatures by combining factors mathematically into a single, human-comprehensible rule. This provides the ability to understand underlying relationships, which allows physicians to assess the results in a more meaningful way. Our technology also makes it possible to discover novel relationships that might otherwise be missed or to generate hypotheses about underlying mechanisms about particular diseases or conditions.

Genetics Squared and our partners apply the power of Evolver to research and develop products for use in oncology and other life science areas. Contact us to learn more.
