Machine Learning In The Cloud With Azure Machine Learning

The history of data science, machine learning, and artificial Intelligence is long, but it’s only recently that technology companies - both start-ups and tech giants across the globe have begun to get excited about it… Why? Because now it works. With the arrival of cloud computing and multi-core machines - we have enough compute capacity at our disposal to churn large volumes of data and dig out the hidden patterns contained in these mountains of data.This technology comes in handy, especially when handling Big Data. Today, companies collect and accumulate data at massive, unmanageable rates for website clicks, credit card transactions, GPS trails, social media interactions, and so on. And it is becoming a challenge to process all the valuable information and use it in a meaningful way. This is where machine learning algorithms come into the picture. These algorithms use all the collected “past” data to learn patterns and predict results or insights that help us make better decisions backed by actual analysis.You may have experienced various examples of Machine Learning in your daily life (in some cases without even realizing it). Take for exampleCredit scoring, which helps the banks to decide whether to grant the loans to a particular customer or not - based on their credit history, historical loan applications, customers’ data and so onOr the latest technological revolution from right from science fiction movies - the self-driving cars, which use Computer vision, image processing, and machine learning algorithms to learn from actual drivers’ behavior. Or Amazon's recommendation engine which recommends products based on buying patterns of millions of consumers.

In all these examples, machine learning is used to build models from historical data, to forecast the future events with an acceptable level of reliability. This concept is known as Predictive analytics em the power of data analysis? These are some of the fundamental problems...
