Machine learning: One of the key to unlock Digitization
▪ Machines can now see, read, listen,
understand, and interact.
▪ Data, small or big, can now be
accesses from anywhere, in the
cloud, on premise or in hybrid ways
▪ Recent hardware innovation (GPU)
has increased processing capabilities
and reduced computation time
▪ Deep Learning Algorithms accuracy
improvements allows now machine to
outperform human in many scenarios
▪ Teaching computers how to perform
tasks by learning from data – instead
of being explicitly programmed by
human
▪ It uses sophisticated algorithms to
“learn” from massive volumes of data.
▪ The more data the algorithms can
access, the more they can learn.
▪ Real-world machine learning
examples are everywhere. Think of
personalized product list on Amazon,
facial recognition on Facebook, or
fastest route suggestions in Google
Maps.
