What Machine Learning can do? we should rephrase our question here, machine learning is already doing lot of stuffs. Machine learning applications are huge. Have you used google to search anything? This question sounds quite stupid, isn’t it? Who doesn’t use google to search on internet? Alright alright alright! Everyone does. Yes, google has deployed many machine learning algorithms in their search engine. As a result, moment you type a letter/keyword, the system will suggest you the best matching results based on your profile.
For example, Suppose you are searching for Java, based on your profile and historical data, google will either try to suggest you coffee or Java language related results. You have been tagged in a photo along with your friends, how did Facebook automatically recognizing your face? Here Facebook is using face recognition algorithms built on top of machine learning.
Machine learning applications can be the game changer
Machine Learning is the greatest breakthrough in tech world. Until last few years, it was internet which is assumed to be greatest, now machine learning has become talk of the town. Although, internet is inevitably the best technical breakthrough our world had seen ever, machine learning is shaping how people will interact with internet.
New generation machine learning applications
Hey Alexa, play attention song by Charlie Puth.
Ok google, please read out latest news in London.
Alexa, place an order for a taxi to my office.
Yes. These virtual assistants are the best examples of speech recognition. They use speech recognition technology built on top of machine learning. Virtual assistants are being used extensively for playing a song to asking for an information and booking a cab to placing an order for groceries.
Healthcare applications
Yes. Any field which has huge data can make use of machine learning. Data is the key player in this. You can feed past health records and diagnostic data of old patients to predict the health of new patients. Machine learning is very good at recognizing the patterns. The patients health records will have lot of patterns, it would have captured many events from their first treatment to very last treatment. These patterns can be compared with the new patients’ current health status. Hence, new patients can be given more care and quick treatments with machine learning system helping doctors in giving right treatment for a possible health issue.
Diagnostics of Diabetic Retinopathy
Recently, machine learning is being used in diagnosis of Diabetic Retinopathy, where it will cause a permanent blindness in humans if not recognized and treated early. Past images of patients suffering from Retinopathy and images of normal eye vision have been fed to machine learning algorithm. Hence, by processing such thousands of images the system has been taught to recognize the Retinopthy.
Recent research shows machine learning system is on par with experienced doctors’s observations to identify Retinopathy. Thus, this breakthrough can help both doctors as well as patients. To recognize such kind of health issues, doctors requires years of practice. However, system can easily recognize diseases with the help of images/data. This is just a beginning. Life in coming years is going to be exciting,
