In this The Hive Think Tank talk, Professor Jian Ma introduces machine learning methods that can be used to help tackle some of the most intriguing questions in genomics and biomedicine. He discusses the research projects in his group to study genome structure and function, including algorithms to unravel complex genomic aberrations in cancer genomes and gene regulatory principles encoded in our genome, by utilizing probabilistic graphical models and deep neural network techniques. The knowledge obtained from such computational methods can greatly enhance our ability to understand disease genomes.

With the addition of OP_RETURN outputs in version 0.9, it became possible to attach arbitrary pieces of information to bitcoin transactions. This turns bitcoin into a low-level communications protocol, just like TCP/IP, on which many new applications can be built. Despite its powerful features, bitcoin is also limited, costly and inefficient compared to TCP/IP. After discussing which sorts of applications make this trade-off worthwhile, we talk about CoinSpark, a new open source protocol for enhancing bitcoin transactions, which makes extensive use of OP_RETURNs.

The Hive Think Tank Panel Discussion moderated by Kate Leggett (Forrester) with panelists: Allan Leinwand (ServiceNow), Nitin Narkhede (Wipro), Jason Smale (Zendesk), Dan Turchin (Neva). The future of customer support is AI-driven virtual agents. Soon, we’ll interact conversationally with bots that know who we are, how we’re impacted, and what we need. Soon, the capabilities of virtual agents will far exceed those of today’s best human agents. We’ll receive support that is more reliable than friends, more accurate than social media, and less frustrating than waiting on hold.

The Hive Think Tank: The Future Of Customer Support - AI Driven Automation

This The Hive Think Tank talk by Venkat Srinivasan, CEO of RAGE Frameworks, focuses on successful applications of AI in the Enterprise. We start with a broad and more inclusive definition of AI in the context of enterprise business processes. We introduce a taxonomy of AI solution methods that broaden the focus beyond a narrow focus on deep learning based on neural nets. In line with the taxonomy, we present several successful AI applications in use today at major corporations across industries including financial services, manufacturing/retail, professional services, logistics. These applications range from commercial lending, contract review, customer service intelligence, market and competitive intelligence, signals for capital markets, regulatory compliance and others.

Then, in the context of digital marketing, we discuss some emerging goodness that will lead to being able to make use of 'piles of seemingly useless rubbish'. Originally presented at Like Minds, London (28NOV2013) with a light dose of sarcasm and a degree of exploding mythology...

Presentation at SSE, May 15, 2014: "Financial Reporting – too little or too much?" Do we have a “disclosure problem” in financial reporting for listed entities? If so, is this a problem of information overload or inadequacy? During 2013 three researchers at the Stockholm School of Economics, initiated a study, supported by the Swedish Enterprise Accounting Group at the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise, in order to contribute to this debate. 40 in-depth interviews were conducted with a broad range of experienced users of financial information. Interviewees include buy-side and sell-side analysts working with both equity and credit side analyses. Geographically, the interviewees are active in Sweden, the UK and other European countries along with the US. The report Decision Usefulness Explored provides a short and timely report of the findings. Exploring what it is that makes financial reports useful, the report addresses what information in financial reports is used, when, how and for what. At a seminar at the Stockholm School of Economics the findings in the report will be discussed. The objective of the seminar is to contribute to the current debate on the “disclosure problem” and the future of financial reporting for listed entities. Agenda 13.00–13.10, Welcome and Introduction - Dr Claes Norberg, Director Accountancy, Confederation of Swedish Enterprise and Adjunct Professor of Corporate Law, Uppsala University - Dr Ebba Sjögren, Assistant Professor and Docent, Stockholm School of Economics 13.10–13.25, Setting the Scene - Dr Walter Schuster, Professor, Stockholm School of Economics 13.25–13.40, The use of information by capital providers: The state of knowledge - Dr Stefano Cascino, Lecturer, London School of Economics 13.40–14.30, Presentation and discussion of report - Dr Anja Hjelström, Assistant Professor, Stockholm School of Economics - Dr Tomas Hjelström, Assistant Professor, Stockholm School of Economics - Peter Malmqvist, Chairman, Valuation committee, The Association of Swedish Financial Analysts - Sigvard Heurlin, Visiting teacher Stockholm School of Economics, former PwC partner, IASC board member 14.30–15.00, Coffee break 15.00–15.20, Questions from the audience 15.20–16.20, Panel discussion - Francoise Flores, Chairman, EFRAG - Jan Engström, Board Member, IASB - Mikael Hagström, Senior VP, AB Volvo - Sue Harding, Director, FRC Financial Reporting Lab - Moderator: Dr Ebba Sjögren 16.20, Closing remarks - Dr Claes Norberg
