How to Determine the Data Needs of an AI Project or Initiative

Episode Summary: We receive a lot of interest from business leaders in the domain of data enrichment, and we've executed on a few campaigns for these businesses. At the same time, our audience seems particularly interested in the collection of data to train a bespoke machine learning algorithm for business, asking questions related to how to get started on data collection and from where that data could come.

TechEmergence is Emerj

We are Now Emerj

After plenty of deliberation, web development and research, we’ve finally rebranded to Emerj Artificial Intelligence Research.
I’m glad I finally won’t get any more “so when are you rebranding?” emails.
It sure did take more effort and development work than I had expected (lots of new features / functionality to build out), but it was well worth it.
My goal with this article is to provide our users and readers with a full breakdown of what’s new, and what to expect moving forward. The article below is broken down into the following sections:

AI and Machine Learning for Clinical Trials – Examining 3 Current Applications

The clinical trial is a foundational pillar of the pharmaceutical drug discovery process. Essentially, clinical trials are research studies which seek to determine if a medical treatment or device is safe and effective for humans. While the pharmaceutical drug industry has experienced some fluctuations it remains a profitable market. Global prescription drug expenditures are estimated to reach nearly $1.5 trillion by 2021 according to Quintiles IMS Holding.

AI for Mobile Medical Diagnostics - 4 Current Applications

AI for Mobile Medical Diagnostics – Current Applications

Before getting into this report, we have to inform readers that none of the companies discussed below claim to offer software that provides diagnostics, except Cognoa, which has FDA approval to call itself a diagnostic tool. We suspect this is because these companies are not legally allowed to do so. We usually don't refer to a dictionary to determine what constitutes a concept, preferring to create our own informed definitions, such as in our What is Machine Learning? piece, but Merriam Webster defines "diagnosis" as the following: "the art or act of identifying a disease from its signs and symptoms."
