​Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Optimization: Opportunities for Inter-Disciplinary Innovation

​Machine learning tools and AI platforms have become prolific in many industries. Applications range from health care to financial applications to manufacturing industries. In the world of big data and ML / AI tools, large scale implementation of machine learning tools in artificial intelligence platforms require automation at several levels. This presentation will provide several examples that describe some of these innovations in various industries as well as discuss trends and upcoming challenges for future research.

​Often, the mathematical model and solution are only a small part of the overall problem. It is also important to ensure the availability of the data required for the model, whether the result is easy to interpret and sustainable in the real world and myriad other aspects. Equally important is the need for a workforce that recognizes the importance of all aspects required for successful implementation of AI methods. In this talk, Kulkarni will discuss some of the practical concerns that are of great importance: ease of implementation, acceptance of the results, safeguards needed to allow for over-rides of automatic decisioning, an educated workforce, etc.
