4 industries that will be transformed by machine learning in 2017

In 2016 there were many machine learning pilots and trials in the industry, with acquisitions of machine learning start-ups by tech giants. Deep learning, a branch of machine learning that produces efficient algorithms to model high level data, is also becoming mainstream.
