BigML Events 2016

The aim of Data Wrangling Automation workshop is to gather practitioners and researchers around the use of inductive programming techniques, programming by example and other learning techniques to automate the data wrangling process. It is well known that a great proportion of the time devoted to data mining and, especially, data science projects is devoted to data acquisition, integration, transformation, cleansing and other highly tedious tasks. These tasks are tedious basically because they are repetitive and, hence, automatable. As a consequence, progress in the automation of this process can lead to a dramatic reduction of the cost and duration of data-oriented projects.

Speaker: Charles Parker, VP of Machine Learning algorithms.

In collaboration with VIVO and Telefónica Open Future_, BigML is hosting a new Summer School in Machine Learning in São Paulo, Brazil.

Change for good. That is what many companies realize when they experience how Machine Learning can help them get more benefits.

These talks will focus on the advantages of Machine Learning and real-time management applied to Supply Chain. BigML will be there presenting how a company can predict its demand using Artificial Intelligence.

Speaker: Álvaro Otero, Chief Operating Officer.

In the last decade we have witnessed the phenomenon of Data Deluge, which can be summed up as an unprecedented rise in the volume, variety, veracity and the velocity of data. The excitement of the promises of this new wave has been dampened by reports of businesses struggling to recoup their investments into heavy infrastructure that store and process such data. As of 2016, the focus has decidedly shifted towards analytics and more specifically Machine Learning as the “killer app” that will deliver the missing tangible return on investment.

These technologies not only have a voracious appetite on all kinds of data, but more importantly they are capable of improving themselves with little to no human intervention. Automating decision making processes have become a real possibility with a remarkable impact on profitability. By harnessing Machine Learning, organizations have a shot at discovering whole new ways of increasing revenue, decreasing costs and controlling risks.

This lecture will focus on the impact of these new trends on how businesses are reorganizing themselves and the corresponding new demands they bring about in the job market.

Speaker: Atakan Cetinsoy, VP Predictive Applications

Automation is having a big impact in our economy. These days, decision makers make data-driven decisions to improve their company's benefits by applying Machine Learning techniques and automate their tasks. This is all part of the evolution. However, understanding where our society is going is not always an easy task. This is the main goal of Industria 4.0, an innovative technology program that helps management teams make the right decisions in time.

Speakers: Álvaro Otero, Chief Operating Officer & Teresa Álvarez, Product Manager.

Modern technologies become more intuitive with devices which can be activated and controlled by touch, specific gestures, and even your own voice, like voice command or facial recognition appliances among others. These devices are fully integrated in our daily lives and sometimes they even compete with human skills.

Machine Learning predictive technology is nowadays accessible to all citizens. In the business environment, algorithms help companies improve their benefits by making data-driven decisions. A good example of this is PreSeries, the automated platform that predicts the probability of a startup to be successful.

This conference, organized by Fundación Telefónica, will analyze the impact of Artificial Intelligence in our society and the direction AI is going. The presentations and panel discussions will be in Spanish.

Speaker: Álvaro Otero, Chief Operating Officer.

The Machine Learning technology is transforming the business environment as we traditionally know it. The ever increasing data available has a great impact in big corporations as well as small companies.
