Deriving insights from data and analytics is an expensive and time-consuming endeavor.  Hence all the hard work involved in deriving insights should be communicated well to the stakeholders so that appropriate business efficiencies can be realized from the insights. So, how can one effectively present the insights? One effective best practice technique is data storytelling. Fundamentally data storytelling is communicating the insights from data and analytics in a structured manner. In this presentation, Dr. Southekal looks at the six dimensions in data storytelling to transform insights into decisions. This presentation is based on Dr.Southekal’s latest book – Analytics Best Practices

Six dimensions in data storytelling to transform insights into decisions

Investment management has traditionally been looked at as a linear field, but economic systems are complex, high dimensional & non-linear. With the advances made in big data and machine learning, researchers are finding greater use of machine learning in investment management. We'll explore this in the webinar

Machine Learning in Investment Management

Everyday thousands of people are bullied, blackmailed, silenced and scammed online using fake photos, fake videos and misinformation. It is getting easier to (i) selectively edit photos, videos and audio, (ii) manipulate metadata of media content and (iii) even generate fully artificial videos (Eg: deepfakes). Fakes are used to spread misinformation and create socio-economic and political chaos. This is leading us towards a post-truth dystopia. Also, sometimes malicious people falsely accuse genuine videos (or photos, audio) as fakes, to promote their self-interests.

In this talk, I will present an implementation of a Blockchain-powered 'truth machine' (a mobile app) to enable a global borderless decentralized citizen photo journalism. Our technology incentivizes the spread of truth and controls misinformation before it spreads. Our app lets anyone create, share, buy, sell and trade unedited, unfiltered, verifiable and tamper-evident photos and videos. The users may choose to be anonymous, pseudonymous or use their real identities. Our built-in blockchain provides a verifiable certificate to prove that they are not fake or photoshopped or deepfaked.  Our mission is to put a truth machine in everyone's pocket and enable a global borderless citizen photo journalism and true photography.

Our built-in marketplace provides new economic opportunities for photographers, photo journalists and anyone with an iOS device. Every photo, video and audio created using True Dat app is a unique cryptographically-signed, verifiable and tamper-evident asset. The provenance and the digital rights of these assets are securely tracked and seamlessly transferred using our EulerChain blockchain.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are enjoying rapid adoption by all sizes of businesses across the world. However, evolving AI from
“Prototyping” activities to “Production” face many challenges, in large part due to the radically different development and deployment profile of
modern Machine Learning (ML) methods, and the range of practical issues that come with real-world use cases.

This webinar will identify the challenges and demonstrate how these challenges could be mitigated with a remarkably scalable, flexible and
extensible ML platform.

How to Implement a Successful Business Intelligence Initiative

This topic will discuss  the different strategies to streamline ITSM, to enhance  and manage IT Security

You will learn:
⦁   How to Focus on the processes and leverage with technology
⦁   ITIL Best practices - Align  the energy of IT  and with the business objectives
⦁   How to streamline the ITSM processes from the IT security perspective and ensure  IT services is efficiently managed, and fully secured
⦁   How streamlining  the processes and use of right technology helps to manage IT access governance and compliance

Strategies to streamline ITSM : IT Security Management Perspective

Our current health system in the United States operates in a silo model that is plagued by broken feedback loops that lead to misaligned incentives between payers, providers, managed care organizations, and social service agencies. A dearth of communication and interoperability between systems contributes to uncontrolled costs and missed opportunities to improve operational efficiency. Furthermore, the most vulnerably patients - individuals who experience adverse social determinants of health in addition to medical and/or behavioral challenges – are often excluded or made worse by the system’s inability to coordinate care across social and medical domains. With a universe of data at our fingertips, we can and must find creative solutions to these problems.

By bringing together social and medical data, we can see a more global view of the healthcare system – more specifically, where it’s working and failing. By linking social and medical utilization data from the whole ecosystem of care, we quickly see overlaps in care, avoidable redundancies in services used, and unmet needs on a population level. We integrate these insights into a comprehensive health management system that supports shared care plans between social and medical agencies, providing a holistic view of patient needs through real-time dashboards.

While we have a long way to go to fix our healthcare system, we have the data to help move us towards a more equitable solution, where healthcare can be affordable and accessible to all in our communities.

Health, Not Just Healthcare: A Data-driven Approach

Real-time streaming applications are driving revenue growth in verticals such as retail, IoT, telecommunications, financial services and SaaS. However, architecting the data infrastructure that powers such applications for rapid business value remains a complex challenge.

In recent years, diversity has come a long way nationally and internationally. Current data suggests that we still face challenges to engage diversity with inclusion. Per recent reports, the architecture/construction sector still lags and in need to empower women, practice equity and promote diversity. 

This presentation will review national efforts for D&I - where we were and where we are now.
We will try to understand the concept/forms of exclusion and how our efforts both at a personal level and professional level can eliminate it. Eventually, it is not about being a woman or a minority, it is about becoming aware of exclusive behavior and cultivating inclusive thoughts and actions. 

Takeaways:
1. Attendees will be able to understand the importance of inclusion & its relation to diversity. It is
very easy to exclude.
2. Participants will learn about women in the field of architecture and construction, challenges we
face and what the industry is doing to empower us.
3. We will discuss how to enhance relationships by valuing and respecting ethnic, cultural
differences and accommodating different stages of lives we all are in.

Building a Strong Foundation: An Architect’s Perspective on Inclusion

Deep dive into the ways machine learning and AI are becoming mainstream and enhancing analytics solutions and insights. 

The talk would aim to de-mystify AI and show that it has been mainstream for longer than we think at different levels of sophistication. Defining AI is the first step in understanding it. Understanding the tools and uses helps make it less intimidating. And knowing it is democratized allows anyone to work in AI. We would walk through real world examples of AI used for leisure, everyday work tasks, and move on to more sophisticated industry uses. All examples keeping in mind best practices to control the AI, which can be a fickle thing when left unchecked.
