Linking the data from all these sources and deriving insight seems a daunting task. This is made easier by using the tools of data science. Data collection via IoT is trendy for real analysis.

 

(A)IoT

Real-time collection of sensor data and its analysis on the IoT platform can identify patterns and behaviours, Feedback received serves to identify the needed measures to adopt in advance, minimizing a vast category of problems in many sectors from health to city management.

 

Industry

The advancement in recognizing an image by a computer involves processing large sets of image data from multiple objects of the same category. For example, beyond face recognition, computer vision could be used to detect and prevent equipment failures on large industrial facilities

 

Telecommunications and Information Tecnologies

AI is playing a determinant role on the Natural Language Processing, allowing better and better systems for voice recognition, translation, sentiment analysis and correlated applications.
