Robotics today is not the same as assembly line Robots of the industrial age because AI is impacting many areas of Robotics.

Specifically, AI is changing Robotics in two key areas

1. Robots are becoming autonomous…

In this post, we explore some broad guidelines for selecting machine learning models

The overall steps for Machine Learning/Deep Learning are:

• Collect…

With the recent news about Facebook and Cambridge analytica, we are rightly concerned about the power and impact of algorithms to shape…

Last week, the financial times wrote that there was a sharp fall in MBA applications in the USA.

The Elite MBA programs were not affected by this trend, but most others were 

Many factors contribute to this fall…

On Linkedin, many Data Science enthusiasts who aspire to be Data Scientists follow me.

One person asked the question:

What do I need to know to get a $150K job as a Data Scientist?

It’s a good…

Introduction

Recently, google launched a Dataset search – which is a great resource to find Datasets.  In this post, I list some IoT datasets which can be used for Machine Learning or Deep Learning applications. But finding datasets is only part of the story.  A static dataset for IoT is not enough i.e. some of the interesting analysis is in streaming mode. To…

In a previous post (four quadrants of the Enterprise AI business case) – I laid the foundations of a strategy for deploying Enterprise AI. In this post, we…

In this post, I explore if ideas of deliberate practise can be applied to teaching coding for Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning

I am exploring these ideas in a free coding workshop/ meetups in…

Introduction

In this post, I discuss the development of the Enterprise AI business case through a framework of four quadrants.  According to Gartner: “The mindset shift required for AI can lead to “cultural anxiety” because it calls for a deep change in behaviors and ways of thinking”. Deployment of AI in an Enterprise is complex and multi-disciplinary. Hence, this framework is evolutionary.  The vendors and initiatives listed are included to…

Andrew Ng is a great fan of reading research papers as a long term investment in your own study (On Life, Creativity, And Failure about Andrew Ng). Anyone who has worked in our field (AI, Machine Learning)…

This big picture view lays the foundation of our book Data Science for the Internet of Things. (Co-authored by Ajit Jaokar, Jean Jacques Bernard and Sukanya Mandal)

We address the question: at what points can we add analytics to the data after it leaves the sensor and…

I had the pleasure to meet @KirkDBorne last week and participate in a panel moderated by Kirk - Decoding #GDPR, #IoT, and #UX in the #BigData world: discussing #AI #MachineLearning #DataSecurity at the…

In my previous article, I wrote about the impact of Robotic Process Automation which drives Enterprise AI. In that article, I said: The first group of workers…

I have a close circle of clued-on/tech savvy friends whose views I take seriously. For the last few weeks, one of these friends has been sending me emails extolling the merits of something called IOTA – which calls itself as the next generation Blockchain.  At first,…

In 2017, the Robotic Process Automation / RPA  market has matured.

Learning from the evolution of RPA, in this post, we explore the wider implications for Enterprise AI i.e. the deployment of Artificial Intelligence to the Enterprise

In this post, I explore strategies to switch to Data Science mid-career. This switch is not easy, but based on the experience of many who I have taught/mentored/recruited – it is possible. Most people consider PhD/MooC etc for switching their career to Data Science. But here, I will explore some non-traditional/unorthodox ways of switching to Data Science. I draw upon my personal experience as a teacher, data…

Background

Biometrics is defined as the science of establishing the identity of an individual based on physical, chemical or behavioural attributes of the person. We see the deployment of Biometrics in many industries such as smart homes, automotive, banking, healthcare etc. According…
