CSC aims to advance industrial machine learning

Most large, data-rich companies fail to benefit from information on an enterprise-wide scale because they are not equipped to effectively capture and analyze available data sources. A recent survey from PwC and Iron Mountain found that 57 percent of businesses are unable to extract significant value from their information, and 23 percent are unable to derive any real value at all. Regardless of size, geography or sector, businesses are struggling to fully realize value from their information. To address the trend, CSC has announced the expansion of its strategic alliance with Microsoft through the advancement of Industrial Machine Learning solutions that enable data scientists to produce new data-derived enterprise insights, leading to better and more timely business decisions. "CSC has been working with Microsoft on industry-specific approaches to the problem of creating data science that works," said Dan Hushon, chief technology officer, CSC.
