Rootclaim Launches Open Analysis Platform That Surpasses Human Reasoning

TEL AVIV, Israel, Dec. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

     Rootclaim helps people get to the bottom line of complex news stories by

combining the validity of mathematics with the power of the crowd  

    Today, serial entrepreneur Saar Wilf launched Rootclaim-a collaborative

analysis platform that transforms how people understand complex issues.

Rootclaim is the first solution to combine the mathematical validity of

Bayesian inference with the power of crowdsourced information.

    "Our aim is to become the most credible voice of reason on any issue, using

the best tools for critical analysis of complex problems," says co-founder Saar

Wilf. "That's why we've created a transparent, fact-based platform where anyone

can go for the most objective analysis of any real-world issue."

    In today's world of information overload it's harder than ever to make

sense of the facts: Do vaccines cause autism?

734 ] The wide range of questions all have one thing in common: each has

several competing explanations claiming to be the truth.

    The Rootclaim model breaks down highly complex issues into small questions

that are simple enough to be answered by humans, and then uses these answers to

reach mathematical conclusions. "Rootclaim's proven methodology generates

better, more accurate results than human reasoning alone can ever achieve,"

explains co-founder Aviv Cohen.

    Rootclaim allows anyone to impact an analysis by contributing evidence,

rational explanations, and historical data. Unlike polling or voting, a strong

claim by one person can beat many widely supported weaker claims.

    A substantial body of research, including Nobel Prize-winning works by

Kahneman and Tversky, has shown that the human brain is unreliable when it

comes to accurately assessing complex problems. This means the only way to

navigate a sea of half-truths is to complement humanity's fallible intuition

with objective probabilistic analysis. At a time in which the line between fact

and fiction is increasingly blurred, Rootclaim cuts through the confusion and

calculates the true bottom line.
