Paradise lost and found: how AI and analytics found the UK’s best place

Minority Report risk-based monitoring: Find the hidden potential

Energy and electricity, market disruption and new dynamics

Analytically speaking, West Perth is paradise. We know that thanks to the Paradise Found project and my colleague Andreas Becks’ blog posts on the topic.

Paradise Found road show: AI and machine learning for all to see

The democratisation of analytics is apparent when you consider who is involved these days. SAS has been doing statistical analysis for 40 years (without the aid of big data in the early days) and had algorithms for machine learning in its portfolio long before machine learning was a buzzword. In
