Description
AI for Business – AI Applications for Business SuccessAI isn't just a fancy concept that powers self-driving vehicles, robots, and high-tech companies.Most organizations – regardless of their size and industry – can benefit from the application of artificial intelligence.Charts and dashboards are useful tools, but they often struggle to analyze big and complex datasets. This is precisely when AI outperforms the traditional Business Intelligence approach! Correlation doesn't imply causation, and this is a significant limitation of BI.Artificial Intelligence can help a company in a variety of ways – it can be employed to build customer retention models, increase gross revenue by optimizing your selling price, find a way to minimize costs and optimize business processes, and ultimately – to run an organization more effectively.This is what AI for Business course aims to teach you.Your instructor, Horia Margarit, has earned two Bachelor's degrees in Cognitive and Computer Sciences at the University of California, Berkeley, and a Master's degree in Statistics from Stanford University. With over 10 years of professional experience in the San Francisco Bay Area, he has differentiated himself by applying highly novel methods and approaches to tackling complex business problems. As a result, his predictions for business applications of AI have been featured in both CIO Magazine and Forbes. Horia's primary focus is on technical underpinnings that maximize actual business and customer value.All this makes him uniquely qualified to teach this topic.In the course, you'll get an overview of business analytics and find out how to define SMART goals and conduct SWOT analysis. You'll go through the challenges and opportunities of supply chain analytics to then determine the business problem we'll tackle throughout the course.Moreover, we will consider the key benefits and limitations of using business analytics approach to solving such problems.Having laid the foundations, we'll then dig deeper and focus on attainability. Even more so, you will discover how to leverage the power of AI in order to achieve the set business goals.Here, you will be able to:· Build an AI model from high fidelity data· Extract actionable explanations· Predict the outcome· Evaluate the quality of the predictionsWe won't spend too much time obtaining the data and building the AI model. Instead, we will focus on evaluating the performance of those methods.For that, you will go through key algorithms like Gradient Boosted Machines and Convergent Cross Mapping. Most of all, you will have the chance to examine in great detail novel approaches to understanding model performance such as LIME and SHAP values.And that's not all!After we've learned how to obtain accurate predictions from our models, we'll find out how we can show the significance of the obtained results. To do so, we'll rely on parametric tests. More specifically, we will be working with the hybrid experiment and quantile difference tests.Take your AI career to new heights!This course is packed with valuable concepts and state-of-the-art techniques.Enroll now and start your journey to AI for business today!
