Predictive analytics is the use of data, statistical algorithms, and artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques to identify the likelihood of future outcomes based on historical data. The goal is to go beyond knowing what has happened and assess what will happen. Predictive analytics is being used far more in the enterprise. However, there is some […]

Fueled by artificial intelligence, ChatGPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is an AI chatbot that uses advanced natural language processing (NLP) to engage in realistic conversations with humans. ChatGPT can generate articles, fictional stories, poems and even computer code. ChatGPT also can answer questions, engage in conversations and, in some cases, deliver detailed responses to highly specific […]

Natural language processing (NLP) is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on computers incorporating speech and text in a manner similar to humans understanding. This area of computer science relies on computational linguistics—typically based on statistical and mathematical methods—that model human language use. NLP plays an increasingly prominent role in computing—and in the […]

A key element in artificial intelligence, artificial neural networks (ANNs) operate in a manner similar to the human brain. They mimic the way actual biological neurons function in order to find answers for complex computing questions and challenges. The method, which can include millions of artificial neurons, falls under the umbrella of machine learning. It […]

Data analytics tools and software deliver deep insights into wide-ranging business events. What data analytics and big data are used effectively, they can fuel faster and better decision-making. This offers significant competitive advantage and boosts digital transformation. Clearly, data mining using data analytics software is at the center of business success; and of course, using […]

The idea that machines can replicate or even exceed human thinking has served as the inspiration for advanced computing frameworks – and is now seeing vast investment by countless companies. At the center of this concept are artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). These terms are often used synonymously and interchangeably. In reality, AI […]

The Internet of Things (IoT) shifts human and computer interaction to a broad and widely distributed framework. By connecting various “things” and “objects”—smartphones, lights, industrial machines, wearables, remote sensors and physical objects that have been equipped with RFID tags—it’s possible to drive advances that would have seemed unimaginable only a couple of decades ago. The […]

Google BigQuery and Snowflake are both leading data platforms. Both offer a wealth of data analytics features, capabilities and tools designed to take enterprise data services to a higher level. Data warehouses have served as valuable tools for organizations for more than three decades. These repositories – now cloud-based – help organizations pull together and […]

Today, choosing the right cloud provider – or group of cloud vendors – is critical. Yet performance and costs are merely starting points. Organizations also require agility and flexibility to expand into digital initiatives, ranging from IoT and robotics to digital twins and machine learning. The ideal cloud platform serves your unique business needs. Two […]

Handling data is challenging in this era in this era of digital transformation. Keeping track of all the bits, bytes and scraps of data strewn across an enterprise—and beyond—is a daunting task. Understanding what exactly is taking place and tracking performance at any given moment is critical for maximum business success. Dashboards aim to deliver […]
