If these algorithms can learn from existing medical reports, and help doctors with diagnosis, the same can be used to improve IT operations. After all, Read More
Source – investors.com loud computing leaders Amazon.com (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT) and Google, along with internet giants, have the inside track in monetizing artificial intelligence technology, a Mizuho Securities report says, but enterprise software providers also will grab a piece of the action. At a basic level, artificial intelligence is the use of computer algorithms to attempt to replicate the human Read More
Source – infoq.com Google uses a clustering algorithm to automatically analyze Android apps and detect which ones can be considered intrusive, write Google security engineers Martin Pelikan, Giles Hogben, and Ulfar Erlingsson. Intrusive apps are those that require the user to grant a larger set of capabilities than what would be strictly required for their proper functioning. For Read More
