Pattern Computer
Pattern Computer is a Washington-based AI company that builds a 'Pattern Discovery Engine' - a system designed to surface novel, higher-order patterns in complex, high-dimensional data that conventional tools and even exascale computers miss. Founded by technology forecaster Mark Anderson and a team that includes an Autodesk co-founder, the company focuses first on medical research and diagnostics, where its technology has improved cancer-screening accuracy and powered a reagent-free, near real-time COVID-19 test.
