ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE- new trends and application

Explosive Growth of Unstructured Data Provides


Massive Scope for AI-based Solutions
With the Internet becoming the main support system of most organizations, data size
and content has multiplied. Richer multimedia content and conversion of paper sources
to electronic records have done little to ease the boom in unstructured data. To top it all,
the continuous exchange of data between organizations - in unstructured forms of phone
calls and file attachments - has built up large volumes of data in types, formats, and
languages that are not entirely usable. Artificial intelligence (AI) can help to convert all
these data into structured, usable formats.

This Technical Insights study, Artificial Intelligence, outlines the latest trends in this
field and the areas in which it has gained maximum acceptance. The study also provides
major technology drivers and challenges, and examines the qualitative aspects of
organizations in this field. This analysis offers the twin perspectives of developments
among vendors and needs of user communities. It summarizes research and
development efforts in various universities as well as provides a list of key patents in
this technology field.

AI Algorithm-Powered Data Mining


Opens Up New Ways to Explore Data
Data mining is proving to be a great tool for exploring new avenues to automatically
examine, visualize, and uncover patterns in data that facilitate the decision-making
process. "The system can interpret details that escape the researcher, especially in cases
where product vendors would like to know their customer’s buying trends," says the
analyst. It simplifies the task of inferring information and patterns from data that might
run into hundreds of pages. AI-based algorithms impart a ‘sixth sense’ to the data
mining systems.

Data mining can be used to follow the growth patterns of a product, and gauge its
market success and the number of repeat orders. This can help companies fine-tune their
products and processes. The system could also look into volumes of transactional data
to detect frauds that are not visible to the naked eye. Data mining solutions are designed
for incorporation into existing intelligent technology infrastructures, and hence,
companies have been developing forecasting tools and predictive analysis technology to
meet this requirement.
AI Gives the Customer Relationship
Management Market a Huge Boost
To succeed in an intensely competitive market, vendors use novel strategies to promote
themselves - be it by providing superior products or using innovative marketing
methods to attract clients. AI vendors have even ventured into the customer relationship
management (CRM) market to help users recognize client-related opportunities and
ways to effectively address them. Personalized approach toward addressing clientele
needs when there are masses of callers is definitely a smart option.

"AI-based solutions are redefining CRM systems, thereby enabling organizations to


meet the increasing customer service demand and provide ease of operation cost
effectively," notes the analyst. New, improved speech recognition systems with
automatic help desk options and call center solutions are already a big hit in the CRM
space. Case-based reasoning provides call center agents with the necessary information
for handling customer queries in real time. "Better customer management and improved
cross-selling of products are the objectives that CRM is moving toward," observes the
analyst. In future, it is quite likely that intelligent agents will replace humans by
attending calls and queries.
