Please predict whether this patent is acceptable.PATENT ABSTRACT: An integrated and comprehensive method and system is disclosed for management and optimization of innovation and associated processes under uncertainty. A first embodiment of the invention consists of a data mining and clustering module to compare a new innovation submission with existing internal and external entries and databases, identify similarities and group similar entries together. A second embodiment of the invention is directed towards an intelligent machine learning module to learn from the available data of previous innovation projects and provide estimates of outputs or target values for new innovation submissions or entries. In a third embodiment of the invention, an uncertainty quantification method and system is introduced to handle uncertain inputs of innovation entries and provide probabilistic estimates of outputs by generating a plurality of solutions and scenarios. In a fourth embodiment of the invention, a multiobjective optimization module is used to simultaneously optimize multiple competing objectives.
