Machine Learning (ML) models are being increasingly employed for credit risk evaluation, with their effectiveness largely hinging on the quality of the input data. In this paper we investigate the impact of several data quality issues, including missing values, noisy attributes, outliers, and label errors, on the predictive accuracy of the machine learning model used in credit risk assessment. Utilizing an open-source dataset, we introduce controlled data corruption using the Pucktrick library to assess the robustness of 10 frequently used models like Random Forest, SVM, and Logistic Regression and so on. Our experiments show significant differences in model robustness based on the nature and severity of the data degradation. Moreover, the proposed methodology and accompanying tools offer practical support for practitioners seeking to enhance data pipeline robustness, and provide researchers with a flexible framework for further experimentation in data-centric AI contexts.

CXOToday has engaged in an exclusive interview with Dr. Abhijit Dasgupta, SP Jain Global school of Management I have had experience as a Visiting Faculty at IIT Bombay, NIFT New Delhi, SPJIMR etc. during the last 25 years while I was having Leadership roles in Corporates in India / overseas. Since 2018, I am a full-time academic. Youthfulness and excitement to learn new things of students and the requirement to stay updated on the topics that I am teaching (among others) keeps me motivated – these are a couple of things that keeps me connected to the education sector. Till date it has been an intellectually satisfying experience for me. My first engagement with Analytics started way back in 2003, when as a CIO, the organization that I was working with during that time, invested in SAS suite of products to generate effective business intelligence.

For International Women's Day, Sophia Ignatidou, Group Manager for AI and Data Science, discusses how bias can arise in AI, the importance of addressing AI-driven discrimination and how we can all work towards equity in these systems. Her blog also appears on the International Women's Day website. As a woman who also became an immigrant, the concepts of equity and inclusion have always been close to my heart. My career began as a journalist, working for newspapers across both Greece and the UK. I wanted to have a more meaningful impact on the world and in the hope that a career change would enable this, I decided to study international relations and diplomacy.

Imperial College London's major new initiative I-X will use artificial intelligence and data science to tackle global challenges. I-X harnesses the College's long-standing excellence in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, data sciences, and the many fields in science, engineering, medicine and business where they are applied. Its projects include developing new computational tools for improving image-based detection and diagnosis of disease, using AI to direct the design and implementation of new biological systems, and intelligent systems and networks for monitoring, control, and security of critical infrastructure. Other fields of research include human-AI cooperation, robotics and automation, and machine learning systems that understand the real world, such as self-driving vehicles. The initiative is housed over two floors at the Translation & Innovation Hub (I-HUB) at Imperial's White City Campus.

Each day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data, so much that 90% of the world's data was created in the last two years alone. Some significant factors are the continued growth of big data, the increasing accessibility of AI tools and algorithms, and the advancement of cloud computing. The rise of weaponized AI is also a major concern for many people, as is the expanding role of AI in our daily lives. The year 2022 was a pivotal year for AI and data science. For one, large corporations and tech conglomerates made significant moves in the AI space.

" The coming era of Artificial Intelligence will not be the era of war, but be the era of deep compassion, non-violence, and love. It is swiftly evolving into the answer to many business challenges due to advancements in automation and machine learning as well as greater research and development in this area. AI and data science are working together to automate a large portion of business production and development, greatly enhancing the speed and effectiveness of user interactions with machines. This essay will examine how organizations are gradually moving toward data science and artificial intelligence. In order to leverage this tech innovation, which encourages automation and efficiency, several of these firms have made significant investments in this industry. Along with the breadth and prospects of AI and machine learning in our daily lives, we will also talk about the effects of data science and AI on business. In 2022, the use of AI and data science will increase dramatically.

Artificial Intelligence is used widely. Virtually, all commercial industries have profited from AI advancements, but there is just as much (if not more!) hype surrounding AI as there is around data science. The phrases AI, Data Science, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, etc., are used almost synonymously of this, which further complicates things. Any technology where a computer program is attempting things that naturally occur to the human brain is referred to as artificial intelligence (AI). Every day, people demonstrate intelligence in actions, including reading written language, hearing speech, identifying items in pictures, and scheduling activities to make the most of their time.

University of New Brunswick (UNB) alumnus Dick Carpenter (BA '72) and the McKenna Institute are pleased to announce a gift of $2.5 million to advance the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science at UNB. AI and data science have become essential elements in the creation of effective digital products and services. AI depends on large data sets for developing reliable predictive models and data science relies on AI algorithms to extract meaningful features from data sets. This interdependence has resulted in AI and data science becoming increasingly intertwined and dependent upon advances in math, computer science and software engineering. This gift will support the development of interdisciplinary AI and data science research across UNB's faculties and campuses. It was secured through the ambassadorship of UNB alumnus and former New Brunswick premier The Hon. "We tend to think of AI in terms of social media algorithms," said Dr. Paul J. Mazerolle, UNB's president and vice-chancellor.

Image of woman's face with technology superimposed The advances in AI have benefited virtually every commercial industry - but there is as much (or more!) hype about AI as there is real AI. In the midst of this are the terms - AI, Data Science, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, etc. - that are adding to the confusion. In this post, I offer perspective on two of these terms - AI and Data Science, and what they (commonly) mean relative to each other. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an umbrella term for any technology where a computer program is attempting tasks that come naturally to the human brain. Skills such as understanding written language, detecting speech, recognizing objects from images, and making plans to optimize time, are all examples of intelligence that humans display every day.
