Integrating Machine Learning and AI in your business

Integrating Machine Learning and AI in your business

01

Machine learning is one of the main branches of artificial intelligence. It presents multiple opportunities for companies and revolutionizing use cases : process automation, content generation, decision support, etc.

80% of the organizations that have adopted it have found that this technology has increased their revenue. (source: Mckinsey)

The purpose of machine learning is to enable machines to develop an autonomous learning capability. To do this, they need to be provided with datasets. Rather than programming a task, the machine is allowed to explore the data so that it learns by detecting patterns (recurring patterns) and improves its performance.

The different types of machine learning models

Supervised Unsupervised Semi-supervised Reinforcement Learning
Mechanism The model trains from a set of labeled or annotated data. Data exploration is done autonomously by the machine. Some of the data is labeled, but the machine still explores it on its own. By assigning rewards or penalties to the model based on its actions, it improves by trying to get the highest reward.
Examples of algorithms
  • Linear regression :
    • Asset valuation
    • Performance forecasting
  • Support vector machines :
    • Fraud detection
    • Image classification
  • Decision trees :
    • Obtain a diagnosis
    • Identify growth opportunities
  • Apriori :
    • Basket analysis
    • Product or content recommendations
  • K-Means :
    • Customer segmentation
    • Data structuring
  • Neural networks :
    • Image recognition
    • Anomaly detection
  • GAN (generative adversarial network) :
    • Image generation
    • Photo editing
  • Naïve Bayes :
    • Text classification
    • Spam filter
  • Q-learning :
    • Financial portfolio management
    • Robotics
  • Deep Q Network (DQN) :
    • Industrial process control
    • Autonomous navigation

Business use cases for machine learning

How are companies currently using machine learning ? Here is a list of the main use cases explored by organizations :

Personalize the customer experience

  • Machine learning-based algorithms analyze customer behavior to personalize their experience. For example, by offering them recommendations for products or content related to their interests, by anticipating their needs, or by identifying the best time and channel to make contact

Anticipate trends

  • Machine learning is often used to predict trends, such as forecasting the trajectory of the sales curve or anticipating fluctuations in consumer demand, etc. This allows companies to make informed decisions and plan their actions to stay in line with the market

Automate customer service

  • Chatbots rely on machine learning to learn from every problem customers encounter. This allows for better responses, automates the handling of simple or recurring issues, and directs customers to the resources they need

Detect fraud

  • A system can be trained to identify suspicious behavior and analyze it in a given context to detect fraudulent activity and minimize the financial loss associated with it

Automate operational tasks

  • Machine Learning makes it possible to automate simple tasks that have low added value, thus reducing associated costs and increasing productivity and efficiency
