BLUE BELL, Pa., March 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Unisys Corporation
(NYSE: UIS) announced today the planned launch of the new Unisys
Artificial Intelligence Center of Excellence (COE), through which
users gain free access to online tools to help them develop
capabilities in advanced data analytics.
The virtual COE is expected to open online in May 2017, giving registrants access to free
tools, methodologies and best practices in areas of artificial
intelligence such as:
- Machine learning – Users will have access to subject matter
experts and machine learning algorithms to help them build
predictive models to serve their specific industry needs. For
example, banks will be able to use the tools to build models to
help predict and prevent credit card fraud, or airlines can build
models to analyze passenger flows at airports or improve flight
connections.
- Cognitive computing – Users will be able to access chatbots, or
automated intelligent assistants, that can carry on conversations
to help in problem solving in areas such as help desk and end user
support services.
- Cyber analytics – The center will provide intelligence tools to
predict cybersecurity threats by detecting anomalies in user
behavior, monitoring business applications and detecting
vulnerabilities using data from the user's security operations
centers and security information and event management tools.
- Internet of Things (IoT) analytics – The center will feature
location-aware software tools to help users leverage the immense
amount of machine data generated by IoT devices. For example, IoT
analytics using sensors, beacons and mobile apps can help banks or
retail businesses support customer analytics.
"Within just a few years, the overwhelming majority of large and
midsize organizations globally will deploy analytics applications
or advanced analytics as part of a platform to improve business
decision-making," said Dr. Rod
Fontecilla, vice president and global lead for analytics at
Unisys. "We want to give users an opportunity to learn about how
artificial intelligence can help build those capabilities by giving
them access to the unique tools and expertise offered by Unisys to
help them remain competitive in the future."
