Artificial intelligence
AI is the branch of computer science that aims to replicate or simulate human
intelligence in machines.
Data analytics and artificial intelligence use data science and advanced
computing algorithms to automate, optimize and find value where the human
eye will never see it

AI in Data Analytics
“People used to say that information is power but that is no longer the case.
It’s the analysis of the data, use of the data, digging into it — that is the
power”
Data analytics is not something new. Its been used by firms since a very long
time. In fact, the global market for data analytics has been predicted to exhibit
a CAGR of 30.08% between 2017–2023 to surpass a valuation of USD 77.64
billion. Mainly due to increased production and usage of data and the ever
increasing ability to make use of advanced statistical algorithms and machine
learning techniques to create and exhibit valuable results for businesses. Data
Analytics and business intelligence already require a sophisticated command
of information technology, mathematics, and statistics. AI and machine
learning algorithms have the capability to automate and optimize analytics
processes, which in turn creates transformative business insights.
• Most people adopting AI and data analytics use it for customer interaction.
Applying AI algorithms to analytics insights from chatbots, e-commerce
platforms, and other sources can elevate the customer experience. These
customer analytics initiatives can lay the groundwork for using AI and
analytics across the business.
• Future updates on platforms such ERP & CRM will lead to increased AI and
machine learning capability in 2019, built around the principle of decision
automation. Experts predict rapid growth in decision automation via robotic
process operation or RPA. With RPA, changes can be implemented on business
processes as needed without human intervention. Robotic process operations
can produce costs savings of about 2 percent now, but it will be approximately
20 percent in one to two years, according to industry experts.
• Example: XYZ's credit card loyalty program could utilize machine learning to
determine that 1,000 of its male members live near a golf course, have not
golfed before but enjoy sports. It also determines that many women members
in the loyalty program are equally likely to be interested. It also sets
parameters for the golf season in certain climate zones. It further determines a
micro segment to offer Saturday afternoon to men and women without young
children, who can more likely take the time on a Saturday.
Examples of Firms Using AI in Data Analytics
• HubSpot uses Kemvi’s DeepGraph machine learning and natural language
processing technology in its internal content management system to better
identify trigger events and pitch prospective clients and serve existing
customers
• Twitter uses machine learning technology and AI to evaluate tweets in real
time and score them using various metrics to display tweets that have the
potential to drive the most engagement
• Google is researching nearly every aspect of machine learning and is making
developments in “classical algorithms” and other applications like natural
language processing, speech translation, and search ranking and prediction
systems
• Edgecase uses machine learning to analyze customer behaviors and actions to
provide a better experience for shoppers.

Examples of artificial intelligence
• Augmented reality is the technology that expands our physical world, adding layers
of digital information onto it. Unlike Virtual Reality (VR), AR does not create the
whole artificial environments to replace real with a virtual one. AR appears in direct
view of an existing environment and adds sounds, videos, graphics to it.
• By some estimates, the total value of the AR market is expected to reach $100 billion
by 2020.
Practical Applications
• PepsiCo pranked commuting Londoners with an AR-enabled bus stop display. Travelers were shown a prowling
tiger, a meteor crashing, and an alien tentacle grabbing people off the street.
• The United States Army is giving soldiers improved situational awareness with the use of AR technology. The
tech, called “Tactical Augmented Reality” (TAR), is essentially an eyepiece that helps soldiers precisely locate
their positions as well as the locations of others—both friend and foe.
• Acura live-streamed an AR race featuring its 2018 TLX sedan. From behind the wheel of Acura’s newest
model, four influencers competed in the “What a Race” AR experience for the fastest overall time during three-
lap individual runs.
• Back in 2015, Disney Research developed technology that makes coloring book characters 3D as they are being
colored.
• L’Oréal partnered with Perfect Corp. to integrate the brand’s makeup collections into the YouCam Makeup app,
a move that is challenging the way consumers have traditionally discovered, tried, and bought beauty products.
Data Mining
The practice of examining large pre-existing databases in order to generate new information.
• The process of extracting information to identify patterns, trends, and useful data that would allow the
business to take the data-driven decision from huge sets of data is called Data Mining.
• In other words, we can say that Data Mining is the process of investigating hidden patterns of information to
various perspectives for categorization into useful data, which is collected and assembled in particular areas
such as data warehouses, efficient analysis, data mining algorithm, helping decision making and other data
requirement to eventually cost-cutting and generating revenue.
• Data mining is the act of automatically searching for large stores of information to find trends and patterns
that go beyond simple analysis procedures. Data mining utilizes complex mathematical algorithms for data
segments and evaluates the probability of future events. Data Mining is also called Knowledge Discovery of
Data (KDD).
• Data Mining is a process used by organizations to extract specific data from huge databases to solve business
problems. It primarily turns raw data into useful information.
Applications:
1. Web usage mining is the application of data mining techniques to
discover usage patterns from Web data, in order to understand and
better serve the needs of Web-based applications.
2. Market basket analysis is a modelling technique based upon a
theory that if you buy a certain group of items you are more likely to
buy another group of items. This technique may allow the retailer to
understand the purchase behavior of a buyer. This information may
help the retailer to know the buyer’s needs and change the store’s
layout accordingly.
3) Fraud Detection: Data mining aids in providing
meaningful patterns and turning data into information.
A perfect fraud detection system should protect
information of all the users. A supervised method
includes collection of sample records. These records are
classified fraudulent or non-fraudulent. A model is built
using this data and the algorithm is made to identify
whether the record is fraudulent or not.
4) Customer Segmentation: Data mining aids in
aligning the customers into a distinct segment and can
tailor the needs according to the customers. Data
mining allows to find a segment of customers based on
vulnerability and the business could offer them with
special offers and enhance satisfaction.
Data Warehouse
A Data Warehouse Is A Large Collection Of Business Data Used To Help An Organization Make Decisions.
It Was Developed To Help Transition Data From Merely Powering Operations To Fueling Decision Support Systems.
The Data Typically Originates In Multiple Systems, Then It Is Moved Into The Data Warehouse For Long-term Storage
And Analysis.
Storage Is Structured Such That Users From Many Divisions Or Departments Within An Organization Can Access And
Analyze The Data According To Their Needs.
Who needs Data warehouse?
