The path to data veracity

Connected Data, though used synonymously with Big Data, is carefully created and curated for storage and reference during the customer’s lifetime. As we already know, enterprises need to carefully build and store Big Data to avoid creating a data swamp. Connected Data goes a step ahead of Big Data. It is customer-specific data built in a context-sensitive framework to ensure a 360-degree view of the customer profile, purchasing habits, preferences, etc., at a glance.

There has been much said about the Internet of Things (IoT) and what it can bring to business and society - creating a more deeply connected world, informed by data sourced from connected things, made better by smarter, more meaningful actions and interactions. These views often focus on how IoT technical solutions can deliver this new future, emphasizing the technology DNA of IoT devices, networks and applications. We have found, however, both through research and experience, that while technology is, in fact, the core of IoT’s DNA; it is just a piece of the puzzle needed to deliver on IoT’s promise. With 60% of IoT projects still struggling to move out of proof-of-concept and scale successfully2 there is more to IoT success than technology alone. What is needed and how can business leaders plan better for IoT success?

The past few years have witnessed exponential growth in data volumes, forms and sources of data. To handle this ever increasing complexity and dimensionality, an Intelligent Framework for knowledge discovery is required. This framework should also support text analysis, visualization, intelligent search, man-machine interface, data management, geo-spatial, temporal data processing including statistics processing. A holistic approach based on Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Analytics provides such a framework. It brings forth a breakthrough natural language-based cognitive technology, which provides instant access to powerful predictive and visual analytic tools for businesses in general and market research in particular.

Artificial Intelligence is developing fast. It will change our lives by improving healthcare (e.g. making diagnosis more precise, enabling better prevention of diseases), increasing the efficiency of farming, contributing to climate change mitigation and adaptation, improving the efficiency of production systems through predictive maintenance, increasing the security of Europeans, and in many other ways that we can only begin to imagine. At the same time, Artificial Intelligence (AI) entails a number of potential risks, such as opaque decision-making, gender-based or other kinds of discrimination, intrusion in our private lives or being used for criminal purposes.

Data analytics are used to test controls and validate that business risks are managed. This would generally occur at a point-in-time when an assurance activity is scheduled. Rather than test a number of transactions, the entire population of transactions can be reviewed for greater coverage. Data analytics includes automated tools such as generalised audit software, test data generators, computerised audit programs, specialised audit utilities and computer-assisted audit techniques (CAATs).

This point of view is an exploration of the possibilities engendered by rethinking the role of data scientists in the wake of industrial revolution. It might be claimed that current trends in industrial revolution reflect a paradigm shift towards data centric processing with data science playing an increasingly critical role. This point of view also explicitly highlights the potential role of Data scientists as an emerging phenomenon, and then to show some of the benefits that this role can bring as we move towards industrial disruption
