Portable Format for Analytics

The Portable Format for Analytics ('PFA) is an JSON-based predictive model interchange format conceived and developed by Jim Pivarski. PFA provides a way for analytic applications to describe and exchange predictive models produced by analytics and machine learning algorithms. It supports common models such as logistic regression and decision trees. Version 0.8 was published in 2015. Subsequent versions have been developed by the Data Mining Group.


As the next generation of predictive model interchange format developed by the Data Mining Group, PFA is an attempt to build and improve on its predecessor called the Predictive Model Markup Language or PMML.[1]
