Launch of v4: Ensemble-Based Investment Selection Model SignalRank also announced the release of v4 , its most advanced company selection model to date. The v4 model combines heuristic and machine learning techniques in an ensemble architecture to identify high-potential Series B investments. Backtesting indicates that v4 can: Reject up to 87% of Series B opportunities as unlikely to perform Generate a projected average 6x return over five years for annual investment cohorts Keith Teare, CEO and CTO, said: “This is the first time we’ve blended heuristics with machine learning into a true ensemble model. The backtest shows performance that exceeds that of any known Series B investor over a five-year horizon. For our partners, it’s a decision support engine; for Index investors, it signals potential returns far ahead of public market benchmarks.” The full v4 Technical Report is available here: v4 detailed report.
