Data Science at the Intersection of Emerging Technologies

Kirk Borne, principal data scientist at Booz Allen Hamilton, gave a keynote presentation at this year's Oracle Code One Conference on how the connection between emerging technologies, data, and machine learning are transforming data into value. Borne explained that with IoT, the value is not in all of the data produced, but instead in the contextual knowledge that sensors give us about the world. With IOT and context knowledge, the goal is to discover and deliver value from data. Value from data is achieved by going from understanding to actions. Emerging technological innovations like AI, robotics, computer vision and more, are enabled by data and create value from data.
