With increased digitization comes the need for infrastructural stability and safety. That’s where TensorFlow can provide maximum returns, especially in the road safety domain. On-road traffic accidents can be minimized with greater efficiencies in overall traffic management. There is also greater control and oversight when dealing with multiple vehicles across various roads.…

Artificial intelligence has been fascinating to the human imagination since the term was first used by the first science fiction writers.

The roots of the concept of "artificial intelligence" must be sought deep in the ancient world, where folklore, legends and myths in almost every culture spoke of artificially created creatures endowed with supernatural intelligence, consciousness or other human qualities. The only factor uniting the myths of the whole world is that artificial…

What is the mixed reality? We have heard about virtual reality and augmented reality. As the name suggests, the mixed reality is something that has features of both augmented and virtual reality. As the number of emerging technologies is increasing rapidly, the new form of reality is here to say us hello! …

Although I deal with many different types of metrics, I believe they can be generally classified as follows: 1) time use; 2) alignment; 3) production; 4) performance; 5) service; 6) and market.  In this blog, I will be providing some comments pertaining to each.  Although I have yet to encounter any myself, I am certain that there must be text books on the issue of operational metrics and how to make use of them.  However, I personally developed nearly all of those that I use.  Although I do…

These days, there are several inventions that were not imaginable by man back then. Technology evolution has indeed helped developers, researchers, and scientists create and build systems that are indescribably very helpful to human existence. Thanks to the continuous evolution of technology which is helping app developers create systems that…

The world of IT calls for expert opinions, in-depth knowledge, modern tools and hands-on experience especially when it comes to build the next awesome websites, mobile apps as well as cloud solutions. Just like it is important to choose the right ingredient for making a flavorful dish; finding the right tool/framework/technology to create a website, the mobile app is of equal importance.…

I recall somebody mentioning that the former definition for insanity is doing an action repeatedly while expecting different results.  Among the interests that I have in organizations is how at times many organizations make the same mistakes; or how sometimes the same mistake might be made by a particular organization repetitively.  So it is fascinating indeed when an airline facing an ice storm encounters much the same complaints from customers after a similar storm the previous year.  I…

With more and more people browsing online from smartphones and tablets, it's no longer a question of whether one needs a mobile application for their business or E-Commerce site, but rather how to get it developed.

There are a few different options available for your  mobile app development project, depending on the budget, target demographic and other factors, all outlined below. In short, there are 4 main routes to…

The different tasks that data scientists may hold are very diverse, but no matter what niche a data scientist fills in their line of work, being specialized in certain technical areas of software development is extremely important. The following skills are some of the most important techniques that a data scientist will need to have in order to perform software development properly.



Statistics knowledge



Before anything else, a data…

The online world isn't as simple as we've thought it to be. Behind the seemingly quiet and vast space of nothingness, huge amounts of data are uploaded and downloaded in fractions of a second. Data science does not only keeps track of these numbers, but also attempts to analyze and organize them. Algorithms are created to keep tabs on searches in search engines, analyze user data preference, and so on and so forth.

The demand for qualified data scientists have become very…

Software Development and Data Science

While on the job, data scientists are often required to perform a large set of tasks that they are taught how to do through their education and formal training. Despite this, many data scientists are not taught the fundamental aspects of software…

If you work in the software industry, it’s likely that you have heard about the divide and conquer design paradigm, which basically consists of recursively splitting a problem into two or more sub-problems (divide), until these become simple enough to be solved directly (conquer).

What you might not know is that this paradigm originates from an old political strategy (the name is derived from the Latin saying divide et impera) that suggests it is…

I find that different types of surveys represent a large source of data for many organizations: client questionnaires; recruitment interviews; incident debriefings; interrogations; borehole drilling surveys; quality control checks; marketing surveys; security and patrol logs; and inventory audits. I believe that for many people, the idea of collecting information using surveys makes sense; and they recognize the need for the data. Problems arise in relation to the transition from survey to…

For so long, money has been the deciding factor whether you will get quality education or not more so, learn about IT. Thanks to the internet, this is no longer the case. These days, there are many websites that are dedicated to offering free IT classes to anyone willing. This may be the reason why most people are getting to develop interest in IT than before. It is important that people should embrace the opportunities offered by online classes as a necessity and…

The first computer program that I encountered mimicking or emulating human interaction through language was called "Eliza." The version that I knew ran on the Commodore PET. It communicated in English. Eliza made comments that made some sense but which indicated lack of understanding of the conversation. If a person mentions "mother," Eliza might…

When I returned to university to do a graduate degree, I was interested to discover how certain terms are subject to "intellectual interpretation." A word that I was asked to explain during one of my earliest classes was "ontology." Since this term was absent from my dictionary, I originally confused it with "oncology." I faintly recall that oncology involves the study of tumors. After consulting a few sources, I said that ontology is the study of how things come to exist or into being. I…

In Java programming, there is the idea of a "virtual machine." A virtual machine is a computer system that doesn't exist in real life. Yet programs can be written for it. The code is interpreted by a runtime environment. Through this arrangement, Java programs can operate on different operating systems rather than one exclusively. Depending on one's background, the concept of a "…
