The hype around “the thinking sciences” — Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Data Science — is enormous, so it’s tempting to be skeptical of the return on investment claimed. Still, most of the results are real. The capabilities of Data Science, where models are inductively built from real history, have been growing steadily. I will reveal examples of the gains that can be achieved using five of our most interesting fielded solutions from the last two decades, from the diverse worlds of investment timing, credit scoring, drug discovery, medical diagnosis, and gas exploration.
Attendees will learn:
- The power of the “thinking sciences” and what make them different from traditional techniques
- Examples of fielded solutions in several industries, and the enormous ROI that they achieved
- Some key human factors that can make the difference between shelf-ware and full implementation
