The importance of Robotic Process Automation

Michael believes that RPA will grow in importance in the future for a number of reasons. Firstly, understanding. It’s no longer an unknown technology. So many large organizations have Digital Workforces and so the worry and uncertainty around them have gone. Secondly, there is a real drive to add ‘Intelligent’ ahead of ‘Automation’. Whilst we aren’t quite at the widespread adoption of ‘intelligent Automation’ just yet, these cognitive elements are getting better and more available each week. Once we have more use cases then we will see the early adopters of RPA start to take the next step and begin to ‘add the human back into the robot’. Thirdly – the net cost of RPA is decreasing. There are now community versions available free of charge, additional software given as part of the platforms, and training available for free. The barriers to entry are disappearing Furthermore, Mahesh highlights that the global pandemic and the economic crisis has put a lot of organizations in a state of flux, made them change business processes, and has also highlighted the need for more automation through RPA.


How AI Is Changing The Real Estate Landscape

AI has applications in estimating the market value of properties and predicting their future price trajectory. For example, ML algorithms combine current market data and public information such as mobility metrics, crime rates, schools, and buying trends to arrive at the best pricing strategy. The AI uses a regression algorithm– accounting for property features such as size, number of rooms, property age, home quality characteristics, and macroeconomic demographics–to calculate the best price range. To wit, the AI algorithms can predict the prices based on the geographic location or future development. Online real estate marketplace Zillow puts out home valuations for 104 million homes across the US. The company, founded by former Microsoft executives, uses cutting edge statistical and machine learning models to vet hundreds of data points for individual homes. Zillow employs a neural network-based model to extract insights from huge swathes of data and tax assessor records and direct feeds from hundreds of multiple listing services and brokerages.


Quantum Computing just got desktop sized

Quantum computing is coming on leaps and bounds. Now there’s an operating system available on a chip thanks to a Cambridge University-led consortia with a vision is make quantum computers as transparent and well known as RaspberryPi. This “sensational breakthrough” is likened by the Cambridge Independent Press to the moment during the 1960s when computers shrunk from being room-sized to being sat on top of a desk. Around 50 quantum computers have been built to date, and they all use different software – there is no quantum equivalent of Windows, IOS or Linux. The new project will deliver an OS that allows the same quantum software to run on different types of quantum computing hardware. The system, Deltaflow.OS (full name Deltaflow-on-ARTIQ) has been designed by Cambridge Uni startup Riverlane. It runs on a chip developed by consortium member SEEQC using a fraction of the space necessary in previous hardware. SEEQC is headquartered in the US with a major R&D site in the UK. “In its most simple terms, we have put something that once filled a room onto a chip the size of a coin, and it works,” said Dr. Matthew Hutchings.


This Week in Programming: GitHub Copilot, Copyright Infringement and Open Source Licensing

On the idea of copyright infringement, Guadamuz first points to a research paper by Alber Ziegler published by GitHub, which looks at situations where Copilot reproduces exact texts, and finds those instances to be exceedingly rare. In the original paper, Ziegler notes that “when a suggestion contains snippets copied from the training set, the UI should simply tell you where it’s quoted from,” as a solution against infringement claims. On the idea of the GPL license and “derivative” works, Guadamuz again disagrees, arguing that the issue at hand comes down to how the GPL defines modified works, and that “derivation, modification, or adaptation (depending on your jurisdiction) has a specific meaning within the law and the license.” “You only need to comply with the license if you modify the work, and this is done only if your code is based on the original to the extent that it would require a copyright permission, otherwise it would not require a license,” writes Guadamuz. “As I have explained, I find it extremely unlikely that similar code copied in this manner would meet the threshold of copyright infringement, there is not enough code copied...”


Django Vs Express: The Key Differences To Observe in 2021

Django is an Python framework that provides rapid development. It has a pragmatic and clean design. It is recognized for having a ‘batteries included’ viewpoint, hence it is ready to be utilized. Here are some of the vital features of Django: Django takes care of content management, user authentication, site maps, and RSS feeds effectively; Extremely fast: This framework was planned to aid programmers to take web applications from the initial conception to project completion as rapidly as possible. ...?Express.js is a flexible and minimal Node.js web app framework that supplies a vigorous set of traits for mobile and web-based apps. With innumerable HTTP utility approaches and middleware at disposal, making a dynamic API is easy and quick. Numerous popular web frameworks are constructed on this framework. Below are some of the noteworthy features of Express.js:?Middleware is a fragment of the platform that has access to the client request, database, and other such middlewares. It is primarily accountable for the organized organization of dissimilar functions of this framework; Express.js supplies several commonly utilized traits of Node.js in the kind of functions that can be freely employed anywhere in the package.


Unleashing the Power of MLOps and DataOps in Data Science

Data is overwhelming, and so is the science of mining, analyzing, and delivering it for real-time consumption. No matter how much data is good for business, it is still vulnerable to putting the privacy of millions of users at unimaginable risk. That is exactly why there is a sudden inclination towards more automated processes. In the past year, enterprises sticking to conventional analytics have realized that they will not survive any longer without a makeover. For example, enterprises are experimenting with micro-databases, each storing master data for a particular business entity only. There is also an increase in the adoption of self-servicing practices to discover, cleanse, and prepare data. They have understood the importance of embracing the ‘XOps’ mindset and delegate more important roles to MLOps and DataOps practices. Now, MLOps are important because bringing ML models to execution is more difficult than training them or deploying them as APIs. The complication further worsens in the absence of governance tools.?
