Top datasets to actualize machine learning and data training tutorialThough the term, machine learning was tossed by Arthur Samuel in 1959 while working at the IBM, the actual serviceability of it started popping up after 2010. So, Dave Waters compares the advancement of machine learning with the baby – “A baby learns to crawl, walk and then run. We are in the crawling stage when it comes to applying machine learning.”How AI Will Affect Your Life and Work in 2019Artificial Intelligence has made quite the journey, from being a science fiction to becoming the part of an era where it has already reached the stage of implementation here in 2019. With several organizations leading the way, Artificial Intelligence has become a potential technology that has already become a part of our daily lives, in fact, it’s everywhere!Automate Company Tasks With Robotic Process AutomationRobotic Process Automation (RPA) is all about driving efficiency. In every industry that uses computer and internet technology, automation is one of the biggest current and upcoming trends.THE 13 BIG DATA TRENDS INDUSTRY PROS ARE WATCHINGWhile big data has long been harnessed by leaders across virtually every industry to make key business decisions, today, the field is a proven and established subset of tech.All you need to know about text preprocessing for NLP and Machine LearningBased on some recent conversations, I realized that text preprocessing is a severely overlooked topic. A few people I spoke to mentioned inconsistent results from their NLP applications only to realize that they were not preprocessing their text or were using the wrong kind of text preprocessing for their project.New R Support in Azure Machine LearningA new R package azuremlsdk (available to install from Github now, and from CRAN soon), provides the interface to the Azure Machine Learning service. With R functions, you can provision new computing clusters in Azure, and use those to train models with R and deploy them as prediction endpoints for use from any app.What is Data Quality?What is Data Quality? Let’s start with an example. There are chances you had at some point in your life a coding exercise like (if not, let’s pretend): “Write a function that computes the monthly payment for a loan”. After the function declaration, what are the first statements?TOP 7 DATA STREAMING TOOLS FOR REAL-TIME ANALYTICSData streaming is the next wave in the analytics and machine learning landscape as it assists organisations in quick decision-making through real-time analytics.Big Data Analytics: A Weapon Against Rising Cyber Security AttacksTraditional security tools are no longer effective against a multitude of complex cyber attacks. Organizations must leverage the potential of big data analytics to tackle the increasing amount of attacks. How Data Analytics Can Relieve These Retail Pain PointsRetail pain points are the challenges that retailers and shoppers face and want to address. Fortunately, data analytics can address many of them, leading to better experiences for everyone concerned. Here are some of the top retail pain points that data analysis could solve.     Books       Big Data Science & Analytics: A Hands-On Approach  We are living in the dawn of what has been termed as the "Fourth Industrial Revolution", which is marked through the emergence of "cyber-physical systems" where software interfaces seamlessly over networks with physical systems, such as sensors, smartphones, vehicles, power grids or buildings, to create a new world of Internet of Things (IoT).   Programming Hive: Data Warehouse and Query Language for Hadoop   Need to move a relational database application to Hadoop? This comprehensive guide introduces you to Apache Hive, Hadoop’s data warehouse infrastructure. You’ll quickly learn how to use Hive’s SQL dialect—HiveQL—to summarize, query, and analyze large datasets stored in Hadoop’s distributed filesystem.          For a detailed list of books covering Big data Data Science, Machine Learning, AI and associated programming languages check out our big data books page.  Want to reach our audience / fellow readers?
