Advanced Automation #ROAD2AI

AI is a Spectrum Rules-based systems Simplest form of automation, the execution of rules Predictive Analytics Predict, advise, influence, recommend Machine Learning Advanced analytic algorithms create insight with more automation Text Processing The addition of unstructured text Automation Deep Learning Self learning algorithms that deliver even more insight and automation Natural Language Understanding Both natural language ingestion and generation. Computer Vision The addition of images and video Robotics Automate repetitive functions and processes

What Does AI Do? Find The Outliers See The Future Learn Patterns Recognize Objects Detect anomalous or unexpected behaviors. Predict likely outcomes. Find unknown patterns and relationships. Categorize or catalog like people or things. #ROAD2AI

4 Types of Algorithms Teaching by example. The machine uses examples to determine logic. SUPERVISED REINFORCED Learning a game. The rules of the game are provided. The machine takes actions and uses results to learn how to win. Similar to supervised learning. Targets are only provided for a subset of the data. No answer key is provided. Conclusions are unconstrained. Draws inferences and conclusions based solely on analyzing input data. SEMI-SUPERVISED UNSUPERVISED

Supervised Learning Teaching by example. Similar to providing an answer key and asking the student (machine) to show their work. The machine uses labeled examples to determine appropriate logic or algorithm.

Supervised Learning: Common Techniques Bayesian Statistics Decision Trees Gradient Boosting Neural Networks Random Forests Regression Analysis Support Vector Machines [SVM]

Supervised Learning: Practical Applications PERSONALIZATION INTERACTION FRAUD DETECTION NETWORK OUTAGE RISK MANAGEMENT CUSTOMER CHURN

Unsupervised Learning No answer key is provided. Conclusions are unconstrained. Modeled on how humans observe the world. Draws inferences and conclusions based solely on analyzing input data.

Unsupervised Learning: Common Techniques Affinity Analysis Clustering Clustering: K-Means Nearest-Neighbor Mapping Self-Organizing Maps Singular Value Decomposition

Unsupervised Learning: Practical Applications ANOMALY/INTRUSION DETECTION IDENTIFYING LIKE THINGS MARKET BASKET ANALYSIS

Semi-Supervised Learning Similar to supervised learning. Q&A are only provided for a subset of the data. Used when there is too much data or subtle variations in data to allow for a comprehensive set of examples.

Semi-Supervised Learning: Common Techniques Bayesian Statistics Decision Trees Forecasting Neural Networks Random Forests Regression Analysis Support Vector Machines [SVM]

Semi-Supervised Learning : Practical Applications SPEECH RECOGNITION IMAGE RECOGNITION CLASSIFICATION WEB PAGE CLASSIFICATION

Reinforcement Learning Similar to teaching someone to play a game. The rules of the game are provided: allowed actions, rules and potential end states. The machine takes different actions and observes results to learn how to achieve an optimal or optimized result.

Reinforcement Learning: Common Techniques Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Learning Automata Markov Decision Process (MDP) Q-Learning
