discovering the opportunity for AI

The best course isn’t always evident. Connecting technology to problems is something we are very good at. Working closely with clients, we explore available data, expertise and knowledge that may provide insight into AI or Data Science solutions. Data availability and analysis is often the most insightful part of any project and leads towards technical solution candidates. We work together to define feasibility tasks that can reveal opportunities for significant gains or revolutionary change.

 

finding the right AI technology

Navigating the sea of buzz words and hype is more than challenging - it is costly. AI is a broad area with ongoing research and most AI companies and researchers are necessarily tied to their approach to advance the science or sell a single product. As researchers, analysts, AI engineers and Data Scientists, we excel at identifying existing or emerging technologies that can solve business problems.

 

machine learning

There are several AI machine learning approaches. If available data holds the answers, Deep Neural Nets may reveal anomalies, relationships or patterns. If there is a model of the system or environment, an evolutionary algorithm may discover the best resource allocation.

 

expert systems

Often data alone will not be available or of the required quality to find answers, or certain processes require deterministic and predictable control. AI technologies such as Fuzzy Logic provide a method to capture expertise for subjective decisions such as credit risk and threat.

 

probabilistic reasoning

All of us humans grasp summary and simple statistics. Methods like Bayesian analysis can infer new information from existing understandings. Complex inference that provide insight into cause and effect can be determined through Bayesian Belief Networks.

graphical analysis

Good graphics provide a visual way to analyze data and gather insight. Quantitative graphics is a key focus area for us in helping to understand data and a key step in any AI or Data Science effort. If people are unable to understand a problem or solution, innovative technology adoption can be impossible to achieve.

 

quantitative graphics

Communicating simple statistical distributions or complex systems require a clear purpose. The same data represented in different ways convey entirely different meaning.

words

Words, sentences, paragraphs all contain information. Natural language processing allows us to measure written text in order to find patterns and gain more insight. The field labeled “comments” may contain the most valuable insight into your market, operation or work records. In recent research we are developing processes to uses these insights along with machine learning to develop recommendations to users.

 

natural language processing

Data sources with free-form text fields are common. Discovering the semantic meaning in context and natural topics through words versus check boxes provides a rich source of new data for analysis.
