Building machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models obviously require plenty of data as a training-set and a test-set on which the model is tested against and evaluated. Best practices related to the setup of train-sets and test-sets have evolved in academic circles, however, within the context of applied data science, organizations need to take into consideration a very different set of requirements and goals. Ultimately, any model that a company builds aims to address a business problem.

We have three big announcements to our community today, and I wanted to talk to you about them: One, Allegro Trains is changing its name, two, we’re adding a completely new way to use Trains, and three, we’re announcing a bunch of features that make Trains an even better product for you! Read all about it on our blog at Clear.ml, our new website for our open source suite of tools.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are relentlessly revolutionizing marketplaces and ushering in radical, disruptive changes that threaten incumbent companies with obsolescence. To maintain a competitive edge and gain entry into new business segments, many companies are racing to build and deploy AI applications.

One of the best ways to stay current in the fast-evolving field of artificial intelligence and machine learning is by following thought leaders, evangelists, and influencers in the industry. In this article, we’ve selected 10 of the most influential thought leaders (listed alphabetically) that are helping drive the field forward.

2020 was quite a year of innovation for Qlik analytics. We delivered key new augmented analytics capabilities with big updates to Insight Advisor, we integrated intelligent alerts fully into Qlik Sense in less than a year, we continued to expand our visualization capabilities to make it easier to showcase your data in exciting and compelling ways, and we made it even easier to execute analytics in the cloud.

With the speed of change in artificial intelligence (AI) and big data, podcasts are an excellent way to stay up-to-date on recent developments, new innovations, and gain exposure to experts’ personal opinions, regardless if they can be proven scientifically. Great examples of the thought-provoking topics that are perfect for a podcast’s longer-form, conversational format include the road to AGI, AI ethics and safety, and the technology’s overall impact on society.

When it comes to machine learning (ML) in the enterprise, there are many misconceptions about what it actually takes to effectively employ machine learning models and scale AI use cases. When many businesses start their journey into ML and AI, it’s common to place a lot of energy and focus on the coding and data science algorithms themselves.

Although the issue of silos in IT and data management are well known, companies appear to be falling back into this trap by not distributing their artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) capabilities across their business. New research from Qlik and IDC revealed that just 20 percent of businesses widely distribute these capabilities across the organization.
