 AI Applications and Methodologies

Key Fields of Application in AI

➢Chatbots (Natural Language Processing, Speech).

➢Alexa, Siri and others.
➢Computer Vision
➢Weather Predictions.
➢Price forecast for Commodities.
➢Self-driving cars.
Activity 1:
➢ Let us do a small exercise on how AI is perceived by our society.
➢ Do you have any idea what people think about AI? Do an online image search for
the term “AI”
➢ The results of your search would help you get an idea about how AI is perceived.
[Note - If you are using Google search, choose "Images" instead of “All” search]
➢ Based on the outcome of your web search, create a short story on “People’s
Perception of AI”
Activity 2:
➢ In this activity, let us explore what is being written on the web about AI?
➢ Do you think the articles on the net are anywhere close to reality or are they just
complete science fantasies?
Now based on your experience during the online search about ‘AI’, prepare your
summary report that answers the following questions:
1. What was the name of the article, name of the author and web link where the article
was published?
2. What was the main idea of the article? Mention in not more than 5 sentences

Chatbots
➢ Chatbot is one of the applications of AI which simulate conversation with
humans either through voice commands or through text chats or both.
➢ We can define Chatbot as an AI application that can imitate a real
conversation with a user in their natural language.
➢ They enable communication via text or audio on websites, messaging
applications, mobile apps, or telephones.
➢ Some interesting applications of Chatbot are Customer services, E-
commerce, Sales and Marketing, Schools and Universities etc.
➢ Natural Language Processing is what allows chatbots to understand your
messages and respond appropriately.
➢ When you send a message with “Hello”, it is the NLP that lets the
chatbot know that you’ve posted a standard greeting, which in turn allows the
chatbot to leverage its AI capabilities to come up with a fitting response. In this
case, the chatbot will likely respond with a return greeting.
➢ Without Natural Language Processing, a chatbot can’t meaningfully
differentiate between the responses “Hello” and “Goodbye”. To a chatbot without
NLP, “Hello” and “Goodbye” will both be nothing more than text-based user
inputs.
➢ Natural Language Processing (NLP) helps provide context and
meaning to text-based user inputs so that AI can come up with the best
response.

 Types of Chatbots
Chatbots can broadly be divided into Two Types:
1. Rule based Chatbot
2. Machine Learning (or AI) based Chatbot risk

1. Rule – Based Chatbot

This is the simpler form of Chatbot which follows a set of pre-defined rules
in responding to user’s questions. For example, a Chatbot installed at a school reception
area, can retrieve data from the school’s archive to answer queries on school fee structure,
course offered, pass percentage, etc.
Rule based Chatbot is used for simple conversations, and cannot be used for
complex conversations.
For example, let us create the below rule and train the Chatbot: bot.train
( ['How are you?’,
'I am good.’,
'That is good to hear.’,
'Thank you’,
'You are welcome.',])
After training, if you ask the Chatbot, “How are you?”, you would get a
response, “I am good”. But if you ask ‘What’s going on? or What’s up? ‘, the rule
based Chatbot won’t be able to answer, since it has been trained to take only a certain
set of questions.
Quick Question?
Question: Are rule-based bots able to answer questions based on how good the rule is and
how extensive the database is? Answer: We can have a rule-based bot that understands the
value that we supply. However, the limitation is that it won’t understand the intent and
context of the user’s conversation with it.
For example: If you are booking a flight to Paris, you might say “Book a flight to Paris”
and someone else might say “I need a flight to Paris” while someone from another part
of the world may use his/her native language. AI-based or NLP-based bot identifies the
language, context and intent and then it reacts accordingly. A rule-based bot only
understands a pre-defined set of options.
Machine Learning (or AI) Based Chatbot
Such Chatbots are advanced forms of chatter-bots capable of holding
complex conversations in real-time. They process the questions (using neural network
layers) before responding to them. AI based Chatbots also learn from previous
experience and reinforced learning and it keeps on evolving.
AI Chatbots are developed and programmed to meet user requests by furnishing
suitable and relevant responses. The challenge, nevertheless lies in aligning the requests to
the most intelligent and closest response that would satisfy the user.
Had the rule based Chatbot discussed earlier been an AI Chatbot and you had
posed ‘What’s going on? or What’s up?’ instead of ‘How are you?’, you would have
got a suitable response from the AI Chatbot.
The earlier mentioned IBM Watson Chatbot - https://watson-assistant-
mo.ng.bluemix.net/ is in fact an AI Chatbot.
 How AI Chatbots Understands User Requests

 Natural Language Processing (NLP)
➢ Do you understand the technology behind the Chatbots? It is called is NLP,
short for Natural Language Processing. Every time you throw a question to Alexa,
Siri or Google assistant, they use NLP to answer your question. Now we are faced
with the question, what is Natural Language processing (NLP)?
➢ Natural language means the language of humans. It refers to the
different forms in which humans communicate with each other – verbal,
written or non-verbal or expressions (sentiments such as sad, happy, etc.).
➢ The Technology which enables the machines (software) to understand
and process the natural language (of humans), is called natural language
processing (NLP).
➢ A Machine can able to read, write, speak, translate like human through
natural language.
➢ Therefore, we can safely conclude that NLP essentially comprises of natural
language understanding (human to machine) and natural language generation
(machine to human).
➢ NLP is a sub – area of Artificial Intelligence deals with the capability of
software to process and analyze human language, both verbal and written language.
***Example:
Email filters, Digital phone calls
Smart assistants, Spell check
Search results, Language translation
Social Media Monitoring.

Natural Language Processing &Neural Networks :

(Neural Networks (Rank Brain))
We surf the internet for things on Google without realizing how
efficiently Google always responds to us with accurate answers. Not only does it
come up with results to our search in a matter of seconds, it also suggests and
auto-corrects our typed sentences.
1. Text Recognition (in an image or a video)
➢ You might have seen / heard about cameras that read vehicle’s number plate
➢ Camera / Machine Translation
➢ using NLP => KL 85 C 4780

➢ Camera / machine captures the image of number plate, the image is transferred to
neural network layer of NLP application, NLP extracts the vehicle’s number
from the image. However, correct extraction of data also depends on the quality of
image.
Quick Question?
➢ Question: Where and how is NLP used? Answer: NLP is natural language
processing and can be used in scenarios where static or predefined answers, options
and questions may not work. In fact, if you want to understand the intent and
context of the user, then it is advisable to use NLP.
➢ Let’s take the example of pizza ordering bot. When it comes to pre-listed pizza
topping options, you can consider using the rule-based bot, whereas in case you
want to understand the intent of the user where one person is saying “I am hungry”
and another person is saying “I am starving”, it would make more sense to use
NLP, in which case the bot can understand the emotion of the user and what he/she
is trying to convey.
2. Summarization by NLP
NLP not only can read and understand the paragraphs or full article but
can summarize the article into a shorter narrative without changing the meaning.
It can create the abstract of entire article.
There are two ways in which summarization takes place – one in which key
phrases are extracted from the document and combined to form a summary
(extraction-based summarization) and the other in which the source document is
shortened (abstraction-based summarization).

https://techinsight.com.vn/language/en/text-summarization-in-machine-learning/
3.Information Extraction
➢ Information extraction is the technology of finding a specific information in a
document or searching the document itself. It automatically extracts structured
information such as entities, relationships between entities, and attributes
describing entities from unstructured sources.
Example
➢ For example, a school’s Principal writes an email to all the teachers in his school -
➢ “I have decided to organize a teachers’ meet tomorrow. You all are requested to
please assemble in my office at 2.30 pm. I will share the agenda just before the
meeting.”
➢ NLP can extract the meaningful information for teachers:
➢ What: Meeting called by Principal
➢ When: Tomorrow at 2.30 pm
➢ Where: Principal’s office
➢ Agenda: Will be shared before the meeting
➢ Another very common example is Search Engines like Google retrieving results
using Information Extraction.
4. Sentiment Analyzer:
➢ It is used to analysis quickly by detect emotions in text data/emoji/etc.
➢ Sentiment analysis is contextual mining of text which identifies and extracts
subjective information in source material, and helping a business to understand the
social sentiment of their brand, product or service while monitoring online
conversations.
➢ Sentiment is the attitudes, opinions, and emotions of a person towards a
person, place, thing, or entire body of text in a document.
➢ Sentiment analysis studies the subjective information in an expression,
that is, the opinions, appraisals, emotions, or attitudes towards a topic, person
or entity. Expressions can be classified as positive, negative, or neutral.
➢ Sentiment analysis works by breaking a message down into topic chunks and
then assigning a sentiment score to each topic.
5. Speech Processing
➢ The ability of a computer to hear human speech and analyze and understand
the content is called speech processing. When we talk to our devices like Alexa or
Siri, they recognize what we are saying to them. For example:
➢ You: Alexa, what is the date today?
➢ Alexa: It is the 18-March-2020.
➢ What happens when we speak to our device? The microphones of the device hears
our audio and plots the graphs of our sound frequencies. As light-wave has a
standard frequency for each colour, so does sound. Every sound (phonetics) has a
unique frequency graph. This is how NLP recognizes each sound and
composes an individual’s words and sentences.
Below table shows the step-wise process of how speech recognition works:
***Speech Recognition System:
We now a days have pocket assistants that can do a lot of tasks at just one
command. Alexa, Google Assistant are some common examples of the voice assistants
which are a major part of our digital devices.
***6. Translate (Neural Machine Translation (NMT)

➢ A Google Translate is a language processor used to converting one

language into another language and that uses NMT increase fluency and accuracy
in Google Translate.
➢ Translate can translate multiple forms of text and media, which includes
text, speech, and text within still or moving images.
➢ AI translators are digital tools that use advanced artificial intelligence to not
only translate the words that are written or spoken, but also to translate the meaning
(and sometimes sentiment) of the message.
➢ This results in greater accuracy and fewer misunderstandings than when
using simple machine translation.
Activity
➢ Have you noticed that virtual assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant work very
well when they are connected to the internet, and cannot function when they are
offline?
➢ Can you do a web search to find out the reason for the same? Please summarize
your findings/understanding below:

 Computer Vision (CV)
➢ CV is a field of study that enables the computers to “see”.
➢ Computer vision related projects translate digital visual data into
descriptions. This data is then turned into computer-readable language to aid the
decision-making process. The main objective of this domain of AI is to teach
machines to collect information from pixels.
➢ Computer Vision, cut as CV, is a domain of AI that depicts the capability of a
machine to get and analyze visual information and afterwards predict some
decisions about it. The entire process involves image acquiring, screening, analyzing,
identifying and extracting information.
➢ This extensive processing helps computers to understand any visual content
extraction of information from digital images. In computer vision, Input to machines
can be photographs, videos and pictures from thermal or infrared sensors, indicators and
different sources.
➢ Image Processing Technique & Pattern Reorganization used in CV, they are
subset of Computer Vision.
➢ To help us navigate to places, apps like UBER and Google Maps come in human.
Thus, one no longer needs to stop repeatedly to ask for directions.
CV has been most effective in the following:
➢ Object Detection
➢ Optical Character Recognition
➢ Fingerprint Recognition

Quick Question?
Q1: List out three of 3 places/locations (like library, playground etc.) in your
school where surveillance cameras have been installed?
Q2: In your opinion, who does the actual surveillance – the camera or the
person sitting behind the device? Justify your answer. and why?
Q3: What features you would like to add to the surveillance camera to make
it true smart surveillance camera?
Before we dive deep into the interesting world of computer vision, let us perform
an online activity:
Activity: Open the URL in your web browser –
https://studio.code.org/s/oceans/stage/1/puzzle/1
Activity details
Level 1:
➢ The first level is talking about a branch of AI called Machine Learning (ML). This
level is explaining about the example of ML in our daily life like email filters, voice
recognition, auto-complete text and computer vision.
Level 2 – 4:
➢ Students can proceed through the first four levels on their own or with a partner. In
order to program AI, use the buttons to label an image as either "Fish" or "Not
Fish". Each image and its label become part of the data which is used to train the
Computer Vision Model. Once the AI model gets properly trained, it will classify
an image as ‘Fish’ and ‘Not Fish’. Fish will be allowed to live in the ocean but
‘Not-Fish’ will be grabbed and stored in the box, to be taken out of ocean/river
later.
➢ At the end of Level-4, we should explain to students how AI identifies objects using
the training data, in this case fish is our training data. This ability of AI to see and
identify an object is called ‘Computer Vision’. Similar to the case of humans where
they can see an object and recognize it, an AI application (using camera) can also
see an object and recognize it.
➢ Advance learners may go ahead with the level 5 and beyond.
Quick Question?

Based on the activity you just did, answer the following questions:

Q1: Can we say ‘computer vision’ acts as the eye of a AI machine / robot?

Q2: In the above activity, why did we have to supply many examples of fish before
the AI model actually started recognizing the fish?

Q3: Can a regular camera see things?

Q4: Let me check your imagination – You have been tasked to design and develop a
prototype of a robot to clean your nearby river/ ponds. Can you use your imagination
and write 5 lines about features of this ‘future’ robot?
 Computer Vision: How does computer see an image
Consider the image below:

Looking at the picture, the human eye can easily tell that a train/engine has crashed
through the statin wall (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montparnasse_derailment). Do
you think the computer also views the image the same was as humans? No, the
computer sees images as a matrix of 2-dimensional array (or three-dimensional
array in case of a colour image). 9*9 = 81
➢ The above image is a grayscale image, which means each value in the 2D matrix
represents the brightness of the pixels. The number in the matrix ranges between
0 to 255, wherein 0 represents black and 255 represents white and the values
between them is a shade of grey.
➢ For example, the above image has been represented by a 9x9 matrix. It shows 9
pixels horizontally and 9 pixels vertically, making it a total of 81 pixels (this is a
very low pixel count for an image captured by a modern camera, just treat this as an
example).
➢ In the grayscale image, each pixel represents the brightness or darkness of the pixel,
which means the grayscale image is composed of only one channel*. But colour
image is the right mix of three primary colors (Red, Green and Blue), so a
colour image will have three channels*. #darkblue=122*11*81=108702
➢ Since colour images have three channels*, computers see the colour image as a
matrix of a 3-dimensional array. If we have to represent the above locomotive
image in colour, the 3D matrix will be 9x9x3. Each pixel in this colour image has
three numbers (ranging from 0 to 255) associated with it. These numbers represent
the intensity of red, green and blue colour in that particular pixel.
➢ * Channel refers to the number of colors in the digital image. For example, a
colored image has 3 channels – the red channel, the green channel and the blue
channel. Image is usually represented as height x width x channels, where channel
is 3 for coloured image and channel is for 1 for grayscale image.
Computer Vision: Primary Tasks
There are primarily four tasks that Computer vision accomplishes:
1. Semantic Segmentation (Image Classification)
2. Classification + Localization
3. Object Detection
4. Instance Segmentation
113b*155g*177r=1245698 (darkpink)
1. Semantic Segmentation
➢ Semantic Segmentation is also called the Image classification. Semantic
segmentation is a process in Computer Vision where an image is classified
depending on its visual content. Basically, a set of classes (objects to identify in
images) are defined and a model is trained to recognize them with the help of
labelled example photos. In simple terms it takes an image as an input and outputs a
class i.e. a cat, dog etc. or a probability of classes from which one has the highest
chance of being correct.
➢ For human, this ability comes naturally and effortlessly but for machines, it’s a
fairly complicated process. For example, the cat image shown below is the size of
248x400x3 pixels (297,600 numbers)
(Source : http://cs231n.github.io/assets/classify.png)
2. Classification and Localization
Once the object classified and labelled, the localization task is evoked
which puts a bounding box around the object in the picture. The term
‘localization’ refers to where the object is in the image. Say we have a dog in an
image, the algorithm predicts the class and creates a bounding box around the object
in the image.
Source: https://medium.com/analytics-vidhya/image-classification-vs-object-detection-vs-
image-segmentation-f36db85fe81 3.

3. Object Detection
When human beings see a video or an image, they immediately identify the objects
present in them. This intelligence can be duplicated using a computer. If we have multiple
objects in the image, the algorithm will identify all of them and localize (put a bounding
box around) each one of them. You will therefore, have multiple bounding boxes and labels
around the objects.
Source: https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolov1/
4. Instance Segmentation
Instance segmentation is that technique of CV which helps in identifying
and outlining distinctly each object of interest appearing in an image.
This process helps to create a pixel-wise mask for each object in the
image and provides us a far more granular understanding of the object(s) in the
image. As you can see in the image below, objects belonging to the same class are
shown in multiple colours.
Source: https://towardsdatascience.com/detection-and-segmentation-through-
convnets-47aa42de27ea
Activity : Let’s have some fun now!
➢ Given a grayscale image, one simple way to find edges is to look at two neighboring pixels
and take the difference between their values. If it’s big, this means the colours are very
different, so it’s an edge.
➢ The grids below are filled with numbers that represent a grayscale image. See if you can
detect edges the way a computer would do it.
➢ Try it yourself!
Grid 1: If the values of two neighboring squares on the grid differ by more than 50, draw a
thick line between them.
Grid 2: If the values of two neighboring squares on the grid differ by more than 40, draw a
thick line between them.
 Weather Predictions
➢ Weather forecasting deals with gathering the satellites data, identifying
patterns in the observations made, and then computing the results to get accurate
weather predictions. This is done in real-time to prevent disasters.
➢ Artificial Intelligence uses computer-generated mathematical programs
and computer vision technology to identify patterns so that relevant weather
predictions can be made. Scientists are now using AI for weather forecasting to
obtain refined and accurate results, fast!
➢ In the current model of weather forecasting, scientists gather satellite
data i.e. temperature, wind, humidity etc. and compare and analyze this data
against a mathematical model that is based on past weather patterns and
geography of the region.
➢ This is done in real time to prevent disasters. This model being primarily
human dependent (and the mathematical model cannot be adjusted real time) faces
many challenges in forecasting.
➢ This has resulted in scientists preferring AI for weather forecasting. One of
the key advantages of the AI based model is that it adjusts itself with the
dynamics of atmospheric changes.
***CNN:(Convolution Neural Network)
➢ A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a type of artificial neural
network used in image recognition and processing, classification,
segmentation that is specifically designed to process pixel data.
➢ CNN have their “neurons” arranged more like those of the frontal lobe,
the area responsible for processing visual stimuli in humans and other animals.
➢ Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) allows researchers to generate
accurate rainfall predictions six hours ahead of when the precipitation occurs.
Application of CNN:
✓ Understanding Climate, Visual Search, Analyzing Documents.
✓ Advertising, Image Tagging, Character recognition.
✓ Predictive Analytics - Health Risk Assessment
✓ Historic and Environmental Collections.
The AI based commodity forecasting system can produce transformative results,
such as:
1. The accuracy level would be much higher than the classical forecasting model
2. AI can work on broad range of data and due to which it can reveal new insights
3. AI model is not rigid like classical model therefore its forecasting is always based
on the most recent input.

Self Driving Car: (Computer Vision & Neural Networks )

➢ A Self-driving car, also known as an autonomous vehicle (AV), driverless

car, robot car, or robotic car is a vehicle that is capable of sensing its
environment using Google Street View and collects input to moving safely with
little or without human input.”

➢ Self-driving cars combine a variety of sensors to perceive their

surroundings, such as radar, lidar, sonar, GPS, odometry and inertial
measurement units.
Question 1: What should the self-driving car do in the above scenario?
____________________________________________________________________

Question 2: In the age of self-driving cars, do we need zebra crossings? After all, self-
driving cars can potentially make it safe to cross a road anywhere.
_____________________________________________________________________
Self-driving cars or autonomous cars, work on a combination of technologies.
Here is a brief introduction to them:
1. Computer Vision: Computer vision allows the car to see / sense the surrounding. Basically,
it uses:
‘Camera’ that captures the picture of its surrounding which then goes to a deep learning model
to processing the image. This helps the car to know when the light is red or where there is a
zebra crossing etc.
‘Radar’ – It is a detection system to find out the how far or close the other vehicles on the
road are
‘Lidar’ – It is a surveillance method with which the distance to a target is measured. The
lidar (Lidar emits laser rays) is usually placed in a spinning wheel on top of the car so that they
can spin around very fast, looking at the environment around them. Here you can see a Lidar
placed on top of the Google car.
2. Deep Learning:
This is the brain of the car which takes driving decisions on the information
gathered through various sources like computer visions etc.

Robotics:
The self-driven cars have a brain and vision but still its brain needs to
connect with other parts of the car to control and navigate effectively. Robotics helps
transmit the driving decisions (by deep learning) to steering, breaks, throttle etc.

Navigation:
Using GPS, stored maps etc. the car navigates busy roads and hurdles to
reach its destination.
***Price Forecast for Commodities:
➢ Forecasting Energy Commodity Prices Using Neural Networks.
➢ The use of neural networks as an advanced signal processing tool may be
successfully used to model and forecast energy commodity prices, such as crude oil, coal,
natural gas, copper and electricity prices.
➢ A Commodity's price is determined primarily by the forces of supply and demand
for the commodity in the market. If the weather in a certain region is going to affect the
supply of a commodity, the price of that commodity will be affected directly.
Examples: corn, soybeans, and wheat.
➢ Copper, one of the oldest and most commonly used commodities, ChAI came
together as a team with a goal to leverage the latest AI techniques in order to provide the
most accurate forecasts over a range of commodities.
❑ Prediction Accuracy.
❑ Confidence Bound Improvement.
❑ Explain ability of our models.
 Google Duplex(Speech Recognition System: )
What Is Google Duplex?
Google Duplex technology is created to sound normal, to make the conversation
experience more friendly. It’s important to us that clients and businesses have a decent
experience with this service, and transparency is a key piece of that. We need to be clear about
the purpose of the call so organizations understand the context.
What will I use Google Duplex for?
Google Duplex won’t say whatever you instruct it to — it only works for specific
kinds of over-the-phone requests. The two illustrations Google introduced at I/O involved
setting up a hair salon appointment and a reservation at a restaurant. Another illustration
is getting some information about business hours. In other words, it only works for those
scenarios because it’s been trained for them, and cannot speak freely in a general context.
How does Google Duplex work?
Duplex relies upon a machine learning model drawn from real world data - for this
circumstance, phone conversations. It consolidates the organization’s most recent leaps
forward in speech recognition and content to-speech synthesis with a range of contextual
details, including the purpose and history of the conversation.
To make Duplex sound normal, Google has even attempted to reproduce the flaw
of common human speech. Duplex consolidates a short delay before issuing certain
responses and says “uh” and “well” as it artificially reviews data. The outcome is
phenomenally exact with amazingly short latency.

Characteristics and Types of AI

➢ Artificial Intelligence is autonomous and can make independent decisions — it

does not require human inputs, interference or intervention and works silently in the
background without the user’s knowledge.
➢ These systems do not depend on human programming, instead they learn on their
own through data experiencing.
➢ Has the capacity to predict and adapt – Its ability to understand data patterns is
being used for future predictions and decision-making.
➢ It is continuously learning – It learns from data patterns.
➢ AI is reactive – It perceives a problem and acts on perception.
➢ AI is futuristic – Its cutting-edge technology is expected to be used in many more
fields in future.

There are many applications and tools, being backed by AI, which has a direct impact
on our daily life. So, it is important for us to understand what kind of systems can be
developed, in a broad sense, using AI.
 ***Characteristics and Types of AI
The ideal characteristic of artificial intelligence is its ability to
rationalize and take actions that have the best chance of achieving a
specific goal.
Eliminate Dull Tasks
➢ We all have days where we have to do busy work: dull, boring tasks that may be
necessary but are neither important nor valuable. Fortunately, machine learning
and AI are beginning to address some of this through human-computer
interaction technologies.
➢ More robust use of this technology can be found in companies like Dialog flow,
a subsidiary of Google, and formerly known as Api.ai. Such companies build
conversational interfaces that use machine learning to understand and
meet customer needs.
➢ Virtual assistants like Alexa, Siri, Cortana, and Google Assistant perform basic
tasks, conversing with the user in natural language.
➢ Want to send 5,000 calendar invites, or book a flight from San Francisco to
Paris? Need a reliable method to answer basic customer questions online,
instantaneously? Solutions like those offered by Dialog flow cut through the
dull work that would otherwise require hours of human time.
➢ Sun Express, a Turkish-based airline, has become the first such airline in
the world to allow users to book tickets using the Alexa voice assistant from
Amazon, according to Simple Flying.
***Focus Diffuse Problems
➢ The expanse of available data has gone beyond what human beings are capable
of synthesizing, making it a perfect job for machine learning and AI.
➢ For example, Elucify helps sales teams automatically update their contacts.
➢ By simply clicking a button, information is pulled from a multitude of public
and private data sources.
➢ Elucify takes all of that diffuse data, compares it, and makes changes
where necessary.
Distribute data
➢ Modern cybersecurity drives a need for comparing terabytes of inside data with
a comparable amount of outside data.
➢ This has been a very difficult problem to solve, but machine learning and AI are
perfect tools for the job.
➢ Vectra Networks - a security company that uses AI to fight cyber - attacks.
➢ By comparing outside network data to the log inside the enterprise, Vectra
Networks can automate the process of detecting attacks.
➢ As the problems of cyber security change and increase, organizations like these
will be vital in addressing the problems of distributed data.
***Solve Dynamic Data

➢ Now, some forward-looking companies are adopting AI to solve the

dynamic problems of human behavior.

➢ A startup called Gi Prime utilizes code data to determine the most

productive work patterns for software engineers.

➢ These complex patterns help organizations move faster and be more

responsive to changing needs.

➢ Finding that human influence in millions of lines of code would have

been impossible in the past, but machine learning and AI can help us
see them.
***Prevent Dangerous Issues

➢ Brand-new industrial systems combine AI-powered robots, 3D

printing, and human oversight. Not only companies realize billions in
savings with these systems, but they will also save lives.

➢ This process not only reduces cost and improves efficiency for the
company, but creates much safer environments for the human
workers.

➢ The dangerous elements of manufacturing jobs are replaced by

machines, while the brains behind them remain safe and human.

➢ Machine learning and AI provide an excellent approach to solve many

of these dull, diffuse, distributed, dynamic, and dangerous problems.
 Recommendation Systems
➢ A recommendation system recommends or suggests products, services,
information to users based on analysis of data based on a number of factors
such as the history, behavior, preference, and interest of the user, etc. It is a
data driven AI which needs data for training.
➢ A recommender system, or a recommendation system (sometimes
replacing 'system' with a synonym such as platform or engine), is a subclass of
information filtering system that seeks to predict the "rating" or "preference" a
user would give to an item.
➢ They are primarily used in commercial applications.
➢ For instance, when you watch a video on YouTube, it suggests many
videos that match or suit the videos that you generally search for, prefer, or
have been watching in the past.
➢ So, in short it gathers data from the history of your activities and behavior.
Let us now take another example. Flipkart recommends the types of products that
you normally prefer or buy.
➢ All these are classic examples of recommendation, but you must know that
Machine Learning (AI) is working behind all this to give you a good user
experience.
➢ Recommender systems engines help the users to get personalized
recommendations, helps users to take correct decisions in their online
transactions, increase sales and redefine the users web browsing
experience, retain the customers, enhance their shopping experience.

➢ There are majorly six types of recommender systems which work

primarily in the Media and Entertainment industry:

➢ Collaborative recommender system

➢ Content-based recommender system
➢ Demographic based recommender system
➢ Utility based recommender system
➢ Knowledge based recommender system
➢ Hybrid recommender system.
***Collaborative Recommender System:
➢ Collaborative recommender systems aggregate ratings or recommendations.
➢ If people have similar interests in the past, they will have similar interests in the
future. Collaborative filtering uses algorithms to filter data from user reviews to
make personalized recommendations for users with similar preferences.
➢ Collaborative filtering is based on the assumption that people who agreed in the
past will agree in the future and that they will like similar kind of objects as
they liked in the past.
Content Based Recommender System:
➢ A content-based recommender learns a profile of the new user’s interests based
on the features present, in objects the user has rated.
➢ It’s basically a keyword specific recommender system here keywords are used
to describe the items.
➢ Thus, in a content-based recommender system the algorithms used are such that
it recommends users similar items that the user has liked in the past or is
examining currently.
***Demographic Based Recommender System:

➢ In Demographic-based recommender system the algorithms first need a

proper market research in the specified region accompanied with a
short survey to gather data for categorization.

➢ Demographic techniques form “people-to-people” correlations like

collaborative ones, but use different data.

➢ The benefit of a demographic approach is that it does not require a

history of user ratings like that in collaborative and content based
recommender systems.
***Utility Based Recommender System:
➢ Utility based recommender system makes suggestions based on
computation of the utility of each object for the user. Of course, the
central problem for this type of system is how to create a utility for
individual users.

➢ In utility based system, every industry will have a different

technique for arriving at a user specific utility function and applying
it to the objects under consideration.

➢ The main advantage of using a utility based recommender system is

that it can factor non-product attributes, such as vendor reliability
and product availability, into the utility computation.

➢ This makes it possible to check real time inventory of the object and
display it to the user.
***Knowledge Based Recommender System:
➢ This type of recommender system attempts to suggest objects based
on inferences about a user’s needs and preferences.
➢ Knowledge based recommendation works on functional knowledge: they
have knowledge about how a particular item meets a particular user
need, and can therefore reason about the relationship between a
need and a possible recommendation.

Hybrid Recommender System:

➢ Combining any of the two systems in a manner that suits a
particular industry is known as Hybrid Recommender system.
➢ This is the most sought after Recommender system that many companies
look after, as it combines the strengths of more than two
Recommender system and also eliminates any weakness which exist
when only one recommender system is used.
➢ There are several ways in which the systems can be combined, such as:
Weighted Hybrid Recommender:

➢ P-Tango system combines collaborative and content based recommendation

systems giving them equal weight in the starting, but gradually adjusting the
weighting as predictions about the user ratings are confirmed or
disconfirmed.

Switching Hybrid Recommender:

➢ Suppose if we combine the content and collaborative based recommender

systems then, the switching hybrid recommender can first deploy content
based recommender system and if it doesn’t work then it will deploy
collaborative based recommender system.

Mixed Hybrid Recommender:

➢ Where it’s possible to make a large number of recommendations

simultaneously, we should go for Mixed recommender systems. Here
recommendations from more than one technique are presented together, so it the
user can choose from a wide range of recommendations.
 Data Driven AI

➢ The Recent development in cheap data storage (hard disk etc.), fast processors
(CPU, GPU or TPU) and sophisticated deep learning algorithm has made it
possible to extract huge value from data and that has led to the rise of data
centric AI systems.

➢ Such AI systems can predict what will happen next based on what they’ve
experienced so far, very efficiently. At times these systems have managed to
outperform humans.

➢ “Data-Driven” approach makes strategic decisions based on Data Analysis and

Interpretation.

➢ Data Driven AI systems, get trained with large datasets, before it makes
predictions, forecasts or decisions.

➢ However, the success of such systems depends largely on the availability of

correctly labelled large datasets.

➢ Every AI system we know around, are data driven AI system.

➢ Data-driven learning, a learning approach driven by research-like
access to data. Scientific methods to extract knowledge from data.
➢ Data-driven testing is the creation of test scripts to run together with
their related data sets in a framework.
➢ The framework provides re-usable test logic to reduce maintenance and
Data-driven science, an interdisciplinary field of improve test coverage.
 Autonomous System

➢ Autonomous system is a technology which understands the environment

and reacts without human intervention.
➢ The autonomous systems are often based on Artificial intelligence.
➢ For example, self-driving car, space probe rover like Mars rover or a
floor cleaning robot etc. are autonomous system.
➢ An IoT device like a smart home system is another example of an
autonomous system.
➢ Because it does things like gather information about the temperature of
a room, then uses that information to determine whether the AC needs to be
switched on or not, then executes a task to achieve the desired result.
➢ Autonomous systems are defined as systems that are able to accomplish a
task, achieve a goal, or interact with its surroundings with minimal to no human
involvement.
➢ It is also essential that these systems be able to predict, plan, and be aware of
the world around them.
➢ The Intelligent Autonomous Systems group investigates methods for
cognition-enabled robot control.

➢ The research is at the intersection of robotics and Artificial

Intelligence and includes methods for intelligent perception, expert object
manipulation, plan-based robot control, and knowledge representation for
robots.

➢ Robots performing complex tasks in open domains, such as assisting

humans in a household or collaboratively assembling products in a factory, need
to have cognitive capabilities for interpreting their sensor data,
understanding scenes, selecting and parametrizing their actions, recognizing
and handling failures and interacting with humans.

➢ In our research, we are developing solutions for these kinds of issues and
implement and test them on the robots in our laboratory.
***Types of Automatous System:
***Autonomous System
An autonomous system (AS) is a collection of connected Internet
Protocol (IP) routing prefixes under the control of one or more network
operators on behalf of a single administrative entity or domain that presents
a common, clearly defined routing policy to the internet.
An autonomous system number (ASN) is a unique number that's
available globally to identify an autonomous system and which enables that
system to exchange exterior routing information with other neighboring
autonomous systems. A unique ASN is allocated to each AS for use in
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing.

➢ Fixed automation,
➢ Programmable automation,and.
➢ Flexible automation.
***FIXED AUTOMATION
It is a system in which the sequence of processing (or assembly)
operations is fixed by the equipment configuration. The operations in
the sequence are usually simple.
It is the integration and coordination of many such operations into
one piece of equipment that makes the system complex.

The typical features of fixed automation are:

➢ High initial investment for custom–engineered equipment;
➢ High production rates;
➢ The economic justification for fixed automation is found in products
with very high demand rates and volumes.
➢ The high initial cost of the equipment can be spread over a very large
number of units, thus making the unit cost attractive compared to
alternative methods of production.
➢ Examples of fixed automation include mechanized assembly and
machining transfer lines.
***PROGRAMMABLE AUTOMATION
In this the production equipment is designed with the capability to change the
sequence of operations to accommodate different product configurations.
The operation sequence is controlled by a program, which is a set of
instructions coded so that the system can read and interpret them. New programs can be
prepared and entered into the equipment to produce new products. Some of the features that
characterize programmable automation are:
➢ High investment in general-purpose equipment;
➢ Low production rates relative to fixed automation;
➢ Flexibility to deal with changes in product configuration; and
➢ Most suitable for batch production.
➢ To produce each new batch of a different product, the system must be
reprogrammed with the set of machine instructions that correspond to the new
product. The physical setup of the machine must also be changed over: Tools must
be loaded, fixtures must be attached to the machine table also be changed machine
settings must be entered. This changeover procedure takes time. Consequently, the
typical cycle for given product includes a period during which the setup and
reprogramming takes place, followed by a period in which the batch is produced.
Examples of programmed automation include numerically controlled machine tools
and industrial robots.
 ***FLEXIBLEAUTOMATION
It is an extension of programmable automation. A flexible automated system
is one that is capable of producing a variety of products (or parts) with virtually
no time lost for changeovers from one product to the next. There is no production
time lost while reprogramming the system and altering the physical setup (tooling,
fixtures, and machine setting). Consequently, the system can produce various
combinations and schedules of products instead of requiring that they be made in
separate batches. The features of flexible automation can be summarized as follows:
➢ High investment for a custom-engineered system.
➢ Continuous production of variable mixtures of products.
➢ Medium production rates.
➢ Flexibility to deal with product design variations.
➢ The essential features that distinguish flexible automation from programmable
automation are:
➢ The capacity to change part programs with no lost production time; and
➢ The capability to changeover the physical setup, again with no lost production time.
➢ Advances in computer systems technology are largely responsible for this
programming capability in flexible automation.
Human Like
➢ Human-Level Intelligence has come to be known as Strong AI or
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
➢ Humans have the ability to gain and apply general knowledge to
problem solving for a wide range of subject domains.
➢ Some of which is acquired by all human beings, such as walking and
talking, etc.
➢ Most of the time, when developers claim they've created a “human-like”
AI, what they mean is that they've automated a task that humans are often
employed for.
➢ Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) refers to a machine that can apply
knowledge and skills within different contexts – in short, one that can
learn by itself and work out problems like a human.
➢ Sophia: A humanoid robot developed by Hanson Robotics, is one of the
most human-like robots.
➢ Sophia is a realistic humanoid robot capable of displaying humanlike
expressions, human-like conversation and is able to make many human-
like facial expressions and interacting with people.
➢ It's designed for research, education, and entertainment, and helps promote
public discussion about AI ethics and the future of robotics.
Activity
➢ Does this picture remind you of something? Can you please share your
thoughts about this image in the context of AI?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
➢ The dream of making machines that think and act like humans, is not new.
We have long tried to create intelligent machines to ease our work.
➢ These machines perform at greater speed, have higher operational ability and
accuracy, and are also more capable of undertaking highly tedious and monotonous
jobs compared to humans.
➢ Humans do not always depend on pre-fed data as required for AI. Human
memory, its computing power, and the human body as an entity may seem
insignificant compared to the machine’s hardware and software infrastructure.
➢ But, the depth and layers present in our brains are far more complex and
sophisticated, and which the machines still cannot beat at sin the near future.
➢ These days, the AI machines we see, are not true AI. These machines are
super good in delivering a specific type of jobs.
 Think of Jarvis in “Iron Man” and you’ll get a sneak peek of Artificial
General Intelligence (AGI) and that is nothing but human-like AI. Although we still
have a long way to go in attaining human-like AI.
 Non-Technical Explanation of Deep Learning
➢ The excitement behind artificial intelligence and deep learning is at its peak. At the
same time there is growing perception that these terms are meant for techies to
understand, which is a misconception.

➢ Here is a brief overview of deep learning in simple non-technical terms!

➢ Imagine the below scenario.

➢ A courier delivery person (X) has to deliver a box to a destination, which is right
across the road from the courier company. In order to carry out the task, X will pick
up the box, cross the road and deliver the same to the concerned person.

➢ In neural network terminology, the activity of ‘crossing the road’ is termed as

neuron. So, input ‘X’ goes into a single neuron which is ‘Crossing the road’ to
produce the output/goal which in this case is the ‘Final Destination’.

➢ In this example the starting and the ending are connected with a straight line. This
is an example of a simple neural network.
➢ The life of delivery man is not so simple and straightforward in reality. They
start from a particular location in the city, and go to different locations across
the city. For instance, as shown below, the delivery man could choose multiple
paths to fulfil his/her deliveries as shown in the image below:
1. Option 1: ‘Address 1’ to ‘Destination 1’and then to the Final Destination’.
2. Option 2: ‘Address 2’ to ‘Destination 2’ and then to the ‘Final Destination’
3. Option 3: ‘Address 3’ to ‘Destination 3’ and then the ‘Final Destination’.
➢ All of the above (and more combinations) are valid paths that take the delivery man
from ‘start’ to ‘finish’.
 However, some routes (or “paths”) are better than the rest. Let us assume that
all paths take the same time, but some are really bumpy while some are smooth.
Maybe the path chosen in ‘Option3’ is bumpy and the delivery man has to burn a
(loss) lot more fuel on the way! Whereas, choosing ‘Option 2’ is perfectly smooth, so
the deliveryman does not lose anything!

In this case, the deliveryman would definitely prefer ‘Option 2’ (Address 1 –

Destination 2 – Final Destination) as he/she will not want to burn extra fuel! So, the
goal of Deep Learning then, is to assign ‘weights’ to each path from address to
destination so that delivery man will find the most optimum path.
How does this work?
➢ As we discussed, the goal of the deep learning exercise is to assign weights to each path
from start to finish (start – address – destination – Final Destination). To do this for the
example discussed above, each time a delivery man goes from start to finish, the fuel
consumption for every path is computed. Based on this parameter (in reality the number of
parameters can go up to 100 or more), cost for each path is calculated and this cost is
called the ‘Loss Function’ in deep learning.
➢ As we saw above in our example, ‘Option 3’ (Address 3 -- Destination 3 –Final
Destination) lost a lot of fuel, so that path had a large loss function. However, ‘Option 2’
(Address 1 – Destination 2 – Final Destination) cost the deliveryman least fuel cost,
thereby having a small loss function as well– thereby making it the most efficient route!

➢ The above picture is a representation of a neural network of the most efficient path to be
taken by the deliveryman to reach the goal i.e. to go from starting point ‘X’ to ‘Final
Destination’ using the best possible route (which is most fuel efficient). This is a very
small neural network consisting of 3 neurons and 2 layers (address and destination).
➢ In reality neural networks are not as simple as the above discussed example. They may
look like the one shown below!

(Source - http://www.rsipvision.com/exploring-deep-learning/ )

➢ The term ‘deep’ in Deep Learning refers to the various layers you will find in a neural
network. This closely relates to how our brains work.
➢ The neural network shown above, is a network of 3 layers (hidden layer1, hidden layer 2
and hidden layer 3) with each layer having 9 neurons each.
***Non-Technical Explanation of Deep Learning:
➢ These Four Capabilities: Classifying what we perceive, Predicting
things in a sequence, Reasoning and Planning are some of the key
aspect of intelligence.
➢ we were shown just a few pictures of cats and dogs and from that we
could easily spot a new picture of cat? We learnt to classify things we
perceive
➢ Also, we learnt to predict what would happen next in a sequence of
events. For instance, in a peekaboo game when someone hid their face
with their hands and took their hands away we expected to see their face.
➢ As we aged, we learnt not to just go by what we see or perceive, but
reason. For instance even though we only saw a cat with three legs we
would reason it perhaps lost a leg in an unfortunate accident or was born
with a congenital deformity. We would not conclude it is a new species
of cat.
➢ Lastly we learnt very early to start planning to get what we want from
our parents/guardians.
The Future with AI, and AI in Action
➢ Transportation: Although it could take a decade or more to perfect them,
autonomous cars will one day ferry us from place to place. The place where AI may
have the biggest impact in the near future is self-driving cars. Unlike humans, AI
drivers never look down at the radio, put on mascara or argue with their kids in
the backseat. Thanks to Google, autonomous cars are already here, but watch for
them to be universal by 2030. Driverless trains already rule the rails in European
cities, and Boeing is building an autonomous jetliner (pilots are still required to put
info into the system).
➢ Manufacturing: AI powered robots work alongside humans to perform a limited
range of tasks like assembly and stacking, and predictive analysis sensors keep
equipment running smoothly.
➢ Medicine: AI algorithms will enable doctors and hospitals to better analyze data
and customize their health care to the genes, environment and lifestyle of each
patient. From diagnosing brain tumors to deciding which cancer treatment will work
best for an individual, AI will drive the personalized medicine revolution.
➢ Education: Textbooks are digitized with the help of AI, early-stage virtual tutors
assist human instructors and facial analysis gauges the emotions of students to help
determine who’s struggling or bored and better tailor the experience to their
individual needs.
Entertainment:
➢ In the future, you could sit on the couch and order up a custom movie featuring
virtual actors of your choice. Meanwhile, film studios may have a future without
flops: Sophisticated predictive programs will analyze a film script’s storyline and
forecast its box office potential.
➢ The film industry has given us a fair share of artificial intelligence movies
with diverse character roles — big to small, anthropomorphic to robotic, and evil to
good. And over the years, this technology has advanced to make its way into the media
and entertainment industry. From video games to movies and more, AI technologies have
been playing a crucial role in improving efficiencies and contributing to growth therein.
➢ Immersive visual experience is also another popular application of Artificial
intelligence. Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are all the rage
nowadays. Development of VR content for games, live events, reality shows and other
entertainment have been gaining immense popularity and attention.
Vital Tasks:
➢ AI will assistants the tools to help older people stay independent and live in their
own homes longer. AI tools will keep nutritious food available, safely reach objects
on high shelves, and monitor movement in a senior’s home.
➢ Could mow lawns, keep windows washed and even help with bathing and
hygiene. Many other jobs that are repetitive and physical are perfect for AI-based
tools. But the AI-assisted work may be even more critical in dangerous fields like
mining, firefighting, clearing mines and handling radioactive materials.
Chatbots:
➢ AI-enabled chatbots have become a crucial part of sales and customer service.
Helping brands serve their customers and improve the entire support experience,
chatbots are bringing a new way for businesses to communicate with the world.
Earlier versions of chatbots were configured with a limited number of inputs and
weren’t able to process any queries outside of those parameters. As a result, the
communication experience was far less appealing and frustrating for a customer.
➢ However, artificial intelligence and its subset of technologies have transformed the
overall functionality and intelligence of chatbots. AI-Powered Machine Learning
(ML) Algorithms and Natural Language Processing (NLP) provided the ability
to Learn and Mimic Human Conversation. Deploying such advanced level of
processing makes chatbots extremely helpful in a wide variety of applications
ranging from Digital Commerce and Banking to Research, Sales and Brand
Building.
➢ Time-consuming and repetitive manual business tasks can be handled by AI-enabled
chatbots, thereby improving efficiency, reducing personnel costs, eliminating human
error and ensuring quality services.
Cybersecurity:
➢ There were about 707 million cybersecurity breaches in 2015, and 554 million
in the first half of 2016 alone. Companies are struggling to stay one step ahead of
hackers. USC experts say the self-learning and automation capabilities enabled
by AI can protect data more systematically and affordably, keeping people safer
from terrorism or even smaller-scale identity theft.
➢ AI-based tools look for patterns associated with malicious computer viruses
and programs before they can steal massive amounts of information or disaster.
Save Our Planet:
➢ Artificial Intelligence can help us create a better world by addressing complex
environmental issues such as climate change, pollution, water scarcity,
extinction of species, and more. Transforming the traditional sectors and
systems, AI can prevent the adverse effects that threaten the existence of
biodiversity.
➢ According to a report published by Intel in 2018, 74% of the 200
professionals in this field surveyed agreed that AI can help solve
environmental challenges.
➢ AI’s ability to gather and process vast amount of unstructured data and
derive patterns from them prove beneficial in resolving many
environmental issues.
➢ An autonomous floating garbage truck powered by AI is another case in
point. This autonomous truck is designed to remove large amounts of plastic
pollution from oceans and safeguard sea life.
Customer Service:
➢ Google is working on an AI assistant that can place human-like calls
to make appointments at, say, your neighborhood hair salon. In addition to
words, the system understands context and hint.
Predictive Analytics
➢ Do you know how some of the largest companies in the world make so much
money? They use many different strategies, but AI-powered predictive analytics is
one of the most important. Take a look at Netflix for example.
➢ A popular media service provider saves more than $1 billion every year thanks
to the powerful content recommendation system.
➢ Instead of giving irrelevant suggestions, Netflix analyzes users’ real interests to
provide them with highly personalized content suggestions.
➢ Amazon does pretty much the same thing – it utilizes AI to display tailored product
ads to each website visitor individually. The system understands users’ earlier
interactions with the company and hence designs perfect cross-sales offers.
Automotive Industry
➢ Tesla is not only a leader in the electric vehicle market but also a pioneer of AI
deployment in the automotive industry. The company is famous for its
autonomous car program that relies on AI to design independent vehicles that can
operate on their own.
➢ Their cars already amassed more than a billion miles of autopilot data in the US, thus
helping the developers to improve the system and add a wide range of other
functions. That includes features such as ABS breaking, smart airbags, lane
guidance, cruise control, and many more.
Healthcare
➢ The entire healthcare industry is getting better due to the influence of AI. Watson for
Oncology is a true gem in the crown as it combines years of cancer treatment studies
and practice to come up with individualized therapies for patients.
There are many other use-cases we should discuss, but let’s just mention a few:
➢ AI is used in biopharmaceutical research.
➢ AI is used for earlier cancer and blood disease detection.
➢ AI is used in radiology for scan analysis and diagnostic.
➢ AI is used for rare disease treatment.

Music Industry:
➢ If you are into music, you must know Pandora. A music streaming service is
known for its machine learning algorithms that allow the provider to analyze
audio content and make incredibly accurate song suggestions.
➢ Namely, Pandora analyzes a database of music to look at over 450 attributes.
AI helps it to analyze everything from vocals and percussions to grungy guitars and
synthesizer echoes. Such accurate data analytics enables Pandora to create song
lists and recommendations that perfectly match listeners’ preferences.
➢ AI helps the musical composer by giving appropriate suggestion in the
tunes.
Creating Powerful Websites:
➢ Create the website may sound difficult, but today there are so many
different website builders that use AI. It’s never been easier to create a website
with sophisticated AI design tools.
➢ Most require little to no coding skills, offer nearly endless options of
well-designed templates, and AI features to optimize your site seamlessly.
➢ Artificial intelligence has made web design easier than ever. However, you
still need to choose the right tools. With AI website builders, designing and
optimizing your site is no longer hard or expensive.
➢ We can provide you customized Artificial intelligence mailing list
depending on your requirement.
Listed below are some of the challenges posed by AI
1. Integrity of AI
➢ AI systems learn by analysing huge volumes of data. What are the consequences
of using biased data (via the training data set)) in favors of a particular
class/section of customers or users?
➢ In 2016, the professional networking site LinkedIn was discovered to have a
gender bias in its system. When a search was made for the female name ‘Andrea’,
the platform would show recommendations/results of male users with the name
‘Andrew’ and its variations. However, the site did not show similar
recommendations/results for male names. i.e. A search/query for the name
‘Andrew’ did not result in a prompt asking the users if he/she meant to find
‘Andrea’. The company said this was due to a gender bias in their training data
which they fixed later.
2. Technological Unemployment
➢ Due to heavy automation, (with the advent of AI and robotics) some sets of
people will lose their jobs. These jobs will be replaced by intelligent machines.
There will be significant changes in the workforce and the market - there will be
creation of some high skilled jobs however some roles and jobs will become
obsolete.
3. Disproportionate control over data
➢ Data is the fuel to AI; the more data you have, the more intelligent machine you
would be able to develop. Technology giants are investing heavily in AI and data
acquisition projects. This gives them an unfair advantage over their smaller
competitors.
4. Privacy
➢ In this digitally connected world, privacy will become next to impossible.
Numerous consumer products, from smart home appliances to computer
applications have features that makes them vulnerable to data exploitation by AI.
AI can be utilized to identify, track and monitor individuals across multiple
devices, whether they are at work, home, or at a public location. To complicate
things further, AI does not forget anything. Once AI knows you, it knows you
forever!
 Cognitive Computing (Perception, Learning, Reasoning)

➢ In summary, Cognitive Computing can be defined as a technology platform that is

built on AI and signal processing, to mimic the functioning of a human brain
(speech, vision, reasoning etc.) and help humans in decision making.
(For additional reference please see: https://www.coursera.org/lecture/introduction-to-
ai/cognitive-computing-perception-learning-reasoning-UBtrp)
Now that we have understood what Cognitive Computing is, let us explore the
need for the same
➢ Enormous amounts of unstructured data and information (Facebook pages,
twitter posts, WhatsApp data, sensors data, traffic data, traffic signals data, medical
reports so on) are available to us in this digital age.,
➢ We need an advanced technology (traditional computing cannot process this
amount of data) to make sense of the data in order to help humans to take better
decisions. Because Cognitive Computing generates new knowledge using existing
knowledge, it is viewed as platform holding the potential of future computing.
Applications of Cognitive Computing
➢ In mainstream usage, Cognitive Computing is used to aid humans in their
decision-making process. Some examples of Cognitive Computing and its
applications include the treatment of disease/’ illness by supporting medical
doctors.
➢ For example, ‘The IBM Watson for Oncology’ has been used at the
‘Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre’ to provide oncologists with evidence-
based treatment alternatives for patients having cancer. When medical staff pose
questions, Watson generates a list of hypotheses and offers treatment possibilities
for doctors.

Cognitive Computing (Perception, Learning, Reasoning)
➢ Cognitive Computing refers to individual technologies that
perform specific tasks to facilitate human intelligence.
➢ Basically, these are smart decision support systems that we have been
working with since the beginning of the internet boom.
➢ With recent breakthroughs in technology, these support systems
simply use better data, better algorithms in order to get a better analysis
of a huge amount of information.
Also, you can refer to Cognitive Computing as:
➢ Understanding and simulating reasoning
➢ Understanding and simulating human behavior
Using cognitive computing systems help in making better human
decisions at work. Some of the applications of cognitive computing include
speech recognition, sentiment analysis, face detection, risk assessment, and
fraud detection.

➢ The term cognitive computing is typically used to describe AI systems that

aim to simulate human thought.

➢ A number of AI technologies are required for a computer system to

build cognitive models that mimic human thought processes,
including machine learning, deep learning, neural networks, NLP and
sentiment analysis.

➢ In the light of the above notions we define cognitive reasoning as modeling

the human ability to draw meaningful conclusions despite incomplete and
inconsistent knowledge.
How Cognitive Computing Works?
➢ Cognitive computing systems synthesize data from various information
sources while weighing context and conflicting evidence to suggest suitable
answers.
➢ To achieve this, cognitive systems include self-learning technologies
using data mining, pattern recognition, and natural language processing
(NLP) to understand the way the human brain works.
Perception:
➢ Cognitive Perception includes, the senses like listening, seeing, tasting, smiling
and feeling the way we which we deal with the information’s.
➢ Perception - Obtaining information's from our environment.
➢ Perception is ability to capture, process and actively make sense of the information
that our senses receive. It is a Cognitive Process that make possible to interpret our
surrounding with the stimuli that we receive through our sensory organ.
➢ Perception is the process of acquiring, interpreting, selecting, and organizing
sensory information. In AI, the study on perception is mostly focused on the
reproduction of human perception, especially on the perception of aural and visual
signals.
➢ Perception often results in learning information that is directly relevant to the
goals. Perception becomes more skillful with practice and experience, and perceptual
learning can be thought of as the education of attention.
Learning:
By use of machine learning AI is able to use learning from a data
set to solve problems and give relevant recommendations.
Cognitive Computing are Systems that Learn at Scale, Reason
with purpose and interact with humans naturally.
(e.g.)
Proper respect is shown to the National Anthem by standing up
when the National Anthem is Played.
Reasoning:
Reasoning is the mental (cognitive) process of looking for reasons for
beliefs, conclusions, actions or feelings. Humans have the ability to engage in
reasoning about their own reasoning using introspection.
(e.g.)
If we saw a cat with three legs we would reason it perhaps lost a leg in
an unfortunate accident or was born with a congenital deformity. We would not
conclude it is a new species of cat.
To achieve these capabilities, cognitive computing systems must have some key attributes.
Key Attributes:

Adaptive:
Cognitive systems must be flexible enough to understand the changes in the
information. Also, the systems must be able to digest dynamic data in real-time and make
adjustments as the data and environment change.

Interactive:
Human Computer Interaction (HCI) is a critical component in cognitive systems. Users
must be able to interact with cognitive machines and define their needs as those needs change.
The technologies must also be able to interact with other processors, devices and cloud
platforms.

Iterative and Stateful:

These systems must be able to identify problems by asking questions or pulling in
additional data if the problem is incomplete. The systems do this by maintaining information
about similar situations that have previously occurred.

Contextual:
Cognitive systems must understand, identify and mine contextual data, such as
syntax, time, location, domain, requirements, a specific user’s profile, tasks or goals. They
may draw on multiple sources of information, including structured and unstructured data and
visual, auditory or sensor data.

 AI and Society
➢ Business consultant Ronald van Loon asserts, “The role of Artificial Intelligence devices in
augmenting humans and in achieving tasks that were previously considered unachievable is just
amazing.
➢ With the world progressing towards an age of unlimited innovations and unhindered
progress, we can expect that AI will have a greater role in actually serving us for the better.
➢ Below are a number of ways pundits expect AI to benefit society.
In the Workplace:
➢ Many futurists fear AI will make humans redundant dramatically increasing unemployment and
causing social unrest.
➢ Many other futurists believe AI and other Information Age technologies will create more jobs than
it eliminates. Regardless of which viewpoint is correct, there will be job displacements requiring
retraining and reskilling.
➢ Beyond AI’s impact on employment, Peter Daisyme co-founder of Hostt, asserts AI will make the
workplace safer. He explains, “Many jobs, despite a focus on health and safety, still involve a
considerable amount of risk.
➢ Risks involved for employees of U.S. factories can be alleviated by the use of the Industrial
Internet of Things and predictive maintenance.
➢ The role of AI and cognitive computing [involves] improving the link between maintenance and
workplace safety.
➢ These technologies address issues before they put factory workers at risk. In addition, AI can take
on more roles within the factory, eliminating the need for humans to work in potentially dangerous areas.
➢ AI can also help relieve workers from having to perform tedious jobs freeing them to perform
more interesting and satisfying work.
In Healthcare:
➢ Ilan Moscovitz asserts, “Healthcare is ground zero for AI. In fact, AI has been
quietly helping doctors treat diseases for almost its entire existence. AI is being used to
assist medical professionals in their diagnoses and to help develop effective drugs more
quickly.
➢ AI can help monitor a patient’s condition 24/7 regardless of their location. It can
help predict which patients are likely to make repeat visits to emergency rooms and can
even predict when patients are likely to die.
In Agriculture:
➢ Artificial intelligence is only one of the Information Age technologies that will
help us feed a growing world population using fewer resources.
➢ Precision farming and other modern techniques rely heavily on these technologies.
In Transportation:
➢ Driverless cars are being pursued by every major automobile manufacturer.
➢ These vehicles are predicted to dramatically reduce deaths due to accident by
reducing human errors and constantly monitoring the physical condition of the car.
➢ In addition, autonomous trucks are being tested in platoons in North Carolina and
autonomous ships are predicted to one day fill sea lanes delivering supplies.
➢ Those are only a few of the ways cognitive technologies are predicted to affect our
lives in the years ahead.
In Education:
➢ Artificial intelligence can be used to personalize education so students can advance at the pace
best-suited to their skills, temperament, and mental abilities.
➢ These technologies won’t eliminate the need for talented teachers; rather, they will help free
teachers to deal with special needs.
In Our Cities:
➢ There is a growing smart cities movement aimed at helping urban residents use scarce resources
more wisely.
➢ As the urbanization trend continues to see cities gain population, smart technologies will
help make urban life more pleasurable and affordable.
➢ AI systems will help manage traffic, improve public transportation, monitor water systems
and electrical grids, and assist law enforcement.
➢ Daisyme notes, “Smart cities, powered by AI platforms, are changing the very fiber of urban
areas. AI technology is addressing old social ills in new ways.”
In Our Environment:
➢ Despite the doubters, scientists have used big data and sophisticated models to demonstrate how
our environment is changing.
➢ Daisyme writes, “Up to now, there has been no way to fully understand the impact that human
beings and economic development have on the environment, including their adverse effects on plant and
animal life.
➢ But that may soon change, as AI provides the necessary tools to collect, shift and organize
extraordinary amounts of data.
➢ AI can help us prevent further damage and better understand how to address development
needs while focusing on sustainability.”

as a stream of characters and converts it into meaningful lexemes. It divides the whole
text into paragraphs, sentences, and words.
2. Syntactic Analysis (Parsing)
➢ Syntactic Analysis is used to check grammar, word arrangements, and shows
the relationship among the words.
➢ Example: Agra goes to the USA
➢ In the real world, Agra goes to the USA, does not make any sense, so this
sentence is rejected by the Syntactic analyzer.
3. Semantic Analysis
➢ Semantic analysis is concerned with the meaning full representation. It mainly
focuses on the literal meaning of words, phrases, and sentences.
4. Discourse Integration
➢ Discourse Integration depends upon the sentences that proceeds it and also
invokes the meaning of the sentences that follow it.
5. Pragmatic Analysis
➢ Pragmatic is the fifth and last phase of NLP. It helps you to discover the
intended effect by applying a set of rules that characterize cooperative dialogues.
➢ For Example: "Open the Door" is interpreted as a request instead of an order.

cubic feet of gas every day but for this to happen, first, the geologists have to find a feasible
location from where oil and gas can be extracted.
➢ To find these locations they have to analyze thousands of different locations using
images taken on the spot.
➢ Suppose if geologists had to analyze each image manually how long will it take to find
the best location? Maybe months or even a year but due to the introduction of computer vision
the period of analyzing can be brought down to a few days or even a few hours.
➢ You just need to feed in the images taken to the pre-trained model and it will get the
work done.
