US Patent 9229966 Object modeling for exploring large data sets

Techniques are described for facilitating performing computer-implemented financial analysis. A metric that transforms one or more time series into an output object is identified. The one or more time series are determined based on one or more input objects. The metric is applied using the one or more time series, thereby generating a particular value for the output object. One of the metric and the particular value for the output object is stored in a physical storage device.
