Michael Cavaretta, Ph.D. on LinkedIn: "Data Science Predictions for 2018…

Not many would have predicted the hype around these technologies in the last few years. But, given the time of year, I'm going to try and make some predictions for the 2018. My first prediction is that large companies will push for automated models to drive their critical business processes just like is currently being done in credit scoring and in direct marketing. This leads me to my second prediction. To enable this drive to automate, companies will need to scale their Data Science and Machine Learning efforts by developing specialized roles for data engineering, data science and model deployment.
