With benefits like on-demand scalability, quicker run times, consistent codes, and high-performing apps, this game-changing combination can empower your business to become more agile, responsive and swift.…

About 4 months ago, I wrote for this blog an article entitled "List of Quantum Clouds". In that article, I listed 17 "quantum clouds". By now, there are probably a few more. The "HWB" (hardware backed) quantum clouds of Dwave, Rigetti and IBM, offer access to already existing, on-line qc hardware. I'll call all the other quantum clouds "proxy" quantum…

Check out the following paper unveiled last night in ArXiv:

An Open-Source, Industrial-Strength Optimizing Compiler for Quantum Programs, by Robert S. Smith, Eric C. Peterson, Mark G. Skilbeck, Erik J. Davis.

This is an exciting development for me since I have been a proponent and practitioner of the art of quantum compilers for a long time.

The new "optimized quantum compiler" by Rigetti is a computer program that tackles the problem of…

Today, Google published the following paper:

TensorFlow Quantum: A Software Framework for Quantum Machine Learning, 

TensorFlow Quantum is software for doing Quantum Bayesian Networks. QB nets have been a dream of mine for 24 years, although Google's paper, despite having 20 authors and 129 references, never cites any of my work. When I first had the idea of Quantum Bayesian Networks, I thought it was such a cool idea that, within a span of a year, I published…

Introduction: Deriving meaningful information out of heap of data is the minimal requirement for any establishment today for its survival & sustenance. There are many terminologies and buzz words related to this area that blurs the meaning leaving people confused, such as Bigdata, Data Ware house (DWH), BI analytics, AI (Artificial…

Sales Forecasting: Science or Instinct?

Recently, we had talked about marketing automation, a digital transformation in the field that involved both artificial intelligence and machine learning. Even Natural Language Processing (NLP) has come a long way, enough to change the content marketing game. But while marketing has shifted to a digital…

Technology is known to shift landscapes, even change the game. We saw that when the internet exploded in scale and popularity, as computers became smarter, and the world goes through the digital transformation. An easy example is in traditional marketing, which now borders on the irrelevant, unable to hold a candle to its more modern counterparts.

Enterprises are learning fast about the relevance and use of AI and Cognitive Computing platforms. Before adopting AI and Cognitive Computing platforms, enterprises must focus on designing the right strategy for their business. A data-driven strategy is very important to derive the maximum benefit from the platform that will help to interpret data and provide…

What is R Shiny App?

R shiny app is an interactive web interface. R shiny app has two components user interface object (UI.R) and server function (Server .R). The two components are passed as arguments to the shiny app function that creates a shiny app object. For more info on how to build Shiny…

1.Introduction to Big data and Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is the use of computing resources (hardware and software) that are delivered as a service over a network (typically the Internet). It’s a virtualization framework.

It is like resource on demand whether it be storage, computing etc. Cloud follows pay per usage model. You need to pay the amount of resource you use.

This computing service by cloud charges…

Big Data Reviews this time actually connect to my previous article entitled "Big Data Analysis" related to the benefits of what can be obtained by the Big Data platform. Current technological advances are able to condition a company to collect or store data from multiple sources that are in one container along with the increasing amount of data. Furthermore, the capacity of the…

I want to know more about the Boltzmann and MCMC techniques from a very basic level in a layman's language. Can someone guide me?

Hadoop is the leading open-source software framework developed for scalable, reliable and distributed computing. With the world producing data in the zettabyte range there is a growing need for cheap, scalable, reliable and fast computing to process and make sense of all of this data. The underlying technology for Hadoop framework was created by Google as there…

Cloud computing has now been adapted on a larger scale than before and most of the organization are taking leverage of shared resources to minimize operational cost and maximize efficiency. With increase in adaption of cloud computing, the threats related to clouds also become a hot issue in 2014.  There were some cyber attacks on organizations like Target and Home Depot and…

The cloud, end-user, and data center are all evolving. In the recent past, the manner in which information has been processed and computed has totally changed. Today, with more consumerization and plenty of data centers, and cloud computing, it is important for administrators to adapt to the new demands. Because of the movement towards…

From episode 10 of my Naked Analyst Channel on YouTube.

I think I do - and it is the ‘appification’ of analytics. What I mean by this is the reduction of a complex analytic activity such as market segmentation, down to a single button on your computer interface. Very much like the…

The real estate industry has long operated according to its own traditions, but the availability of huge volumes of data is revolutionizing the way the industry works.…
