The model-free, data-driven technique discussed here is so basic that it can easily be implemented in Excel, and we actually provide an Excel implementation. It is surprising that this technique does not pre-date standard linear regression, and is rarely if ever used by statisticians and data scientists. It is related to kriging and nearest neighbor interpolation, and apparently first mentioned in 1965 by Harvard scientists working on GIS (geographic information systems). It was referred…

In my previous post, What’s Driving the Future of Work and Professions?, I mentioned PESTLE as a helpful framework for classifying external forces that act on all of us and the companies for which we work. In this article, I present a list of them for you to consider. It’s not encyclopedic, but it’s a good…

Being an expert at developing and understanding ML, or Machine Learning algorithms, takes time and a lot of hard work. That’s why ML (machine learning) engineers are been seen constantly learning while at the job. If the learning stops, your professional growth stops. Many of us, especially the AI aspirants, think that watching tutorial videos on AI (artificial intelligence) modeling or ML algorithm development on YouTube…

I’ve been reading the interesting and soul-searching (from a data scientist perspective) book from Cathy O’Neil titled “Weapons of Math Destruction”, or WMD as used in the book. The book provides several real-world examples of how Big Data and Data Science – when not properly structured – can lead to ethically-wrong unintended consequences.
Chapter…

Over the years, I've had people ask me how a taxonomy differs from an ontology. The answer (or at least a reasonably simple answer) is that "a taxonomy is a tree shaped ontology".
It is worth digging bit deeper to understand what that means, however:
Way back in the early 18th century, a Swedish biologist by the name of Carl Linnaeus…

Mobile applications based on machine learning are reshaping and affecting many aspects of our lives. Implementing machine learning on mobile devices faces various challenges, including computational power, energy, latency, low memory, and privacy risks. In this article, we…

This article was written on OpenAI.
We’ve created images that reliably fool neural network classifiers when viewed from varied scales and perspectives. This challenges a claim from last week that self-driving cars would be hard to trick maliciously since they capture images from multiple scales, angles, perspectives, and…

Summary: Let’s start by clarifying the difference between RPA (Robotic Process Automation) and IA (Intelligent Automation). Then we’ll show why AI/ML inside Intelligent Automation is the secret sauce that really makes this work.
As we’ve tracked the adoption of AI/ML across industries…

As you start incorporating machine learning models into your end-user applications, the question comes up: “When is the model good enough to deploy?”
There simply is no single right answer.
There is no clear-cut measure of when a machine learning model is ready to…

The varying needs of patients and the growing need for better management of healthcare have driven companies to look for answers and help from technology. Suffice it to say that technology answered the call and how! While there are plenty of technology-driven resources that offer quality help. None has proven to be quite as potent as the Internet of Things, which is essentially a network of devices connected via the internet. In the context of healthcare, it empowers healthcare providers…

After a few biostatistics classes, I began fitting my first logistic regression model using my physician friend’s data on tumors excised from skin cancer patients. I realized that although we were very clear about the dependent variable we were trying to predict – a certain feature of the tumor – I really did not know how to pick the independent…
