Versicherer gehören zu den Spätstartern in Sachen Digitalisierung – selbst im Kundenservice, wo sich die digitale Vernetzung förmlich aufdrängt. Oft spielt dabei die Unternehmensgröße und die damit verbundenen festgefahrenen Strukturen, Legacy Systeme und Prozesse eine große Rolle. Sie macht es auch schwer, auf neue Trends spontan zu reagieren. Und dann
Ich bin bereits zum dritten Mal in San Francisco und wieder mal sehr beeindruckt von der großartigen Architektur der Golden Gate Bridge. Diesmal lasse ich mich mit dem Boot nach Sausalito, auf die andere Seite der Bucht, übersetzen. Das dortige Orts-Museum erzählt dem Besucher von der bewegten Geschichte des Ortes
Un gran número de organizaciones en el mundo están preparándose para emprender el viaje hacia la Inteligencia Artificial (IA). El camino puede ser largo y sinuoso, particularmente si se carece de una estrategia bien definida y de las herramientas que allanen la ruta y aceleren la llegada a tan deseado
This blog post introduces the use of deep learning to train a deep neural network to further improve performance; and hybrid architectures.
Given a rectangular grid with unit spacing, what is the expected distance between two random vertices, where distance is measured in the L1 metric? (Here "random" means "uniformly at random.") I recently needed this answer for some small grids, such as the one to the right, which is a 7 x 6

PC Magazine defines the broad industry term Software as a Service (SaaS) as, “Software that is rented rather than purchased. Instead of buying applications and paying for periodic upgrades, SaaS is subscription based, and upgrades are automatic during the subscription period.” SaaS, according to the same source, is ideally suited
Happy National Yoga Month! Maybe the announcement of Yoga Month on your Facebook feed, your current training plan, or your desire for some R&R has recently sparked your interest in yoga. Maybe you’ve been thinking about trying it out for a while, but, oye, stepping into that room with a

Continued fractions show up in surprising places. They are used in the numerical approximations of certain functions, including the evaluation of the normal cumulative distribution function (normal CDF) for large values of x (El-bolkiny, 1995, p. 75-77) and in approximating the Lambert W function, which has applications in the modeling
