I&I sponsor of the 18th International Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIIA 2019)

From the 19th of November to the 22nd of November 2019, the International Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIIA 2019) will be held at UNICAL, Rende (CS), with Internet & Idee as official sponsor.

The eighteenth edition of the conference is going to investigate different aspects of theoretical and applied artificial intelligence, but above all to bring participants closer to the opportunities offered by this cutting-edge technology, thanks to a series of workshops dedicated to specific topics including Machine Learning, Deep Learning, predictive engines, marketing and process robotization.

The initial assumption is that artificial intelligence is already a reality in everyday life, just think of voice assistants or intelligent algorithms, based on advanced learning techniques that suggest, for example, which products to buy or which music to listen to. However, in the business environment, many large companies have not yet understood how to exploit the potential of AI and implement them effectively in their strategy.

The main obstacles derive from the lack of skills, poor processing power and poorly adapted infrastructures, which make it difficult to analyze big data and extract information that can translate into real business value. In this context, machine support proves to be fundamental; by exploiting large amounts of data, the AI is able to create intelligent systems and accelerate business processes.

Artificial Intelligence: which advantages and opportunities for companies

For companies, the integration of AI into the business processes has led to a series of benefits, automating part of them, reducing errors and allowing the development of new services and products. From the financial sector, where it can be used for a better risk assessment or for a more effective segmentation of customers, to the energy sector, to optimize maintenance and forecast the use of energy by the consumer, to the IT sector, where thanks to the use of AI in RPA solutions (Robotic Process Automation), it is possible to automate business processes, to save a lot of time and to dedicate resources to other complex activities, enhancing creativity and individual qualities.

Sentiment Analysis and Machine Learning: the case megliorisparmiare.it

Within the IT sector, Internet & Idee has recently developed, for its price comparison platform megliorisparmiare.it, a mathematical algorithm able to extract data from comments and reviews released by users on the web, through the Sentiment Analysis, a branch of the NLP (Natural Language Processing). To analyze and break down this large amount of textual data, it was necessary to use the computational power of AI and Machine Learning, that is the ability of machines to learn and build analytical models autonomously. The use of Artificial Intelligence has therefore made it possible to develop an intelligent comparator, able to accompany the user and guarantee the best possible solution based on his needs.

A winning combination, that between AI and business, which opens up new scenarios and perspectives of use, but, however, it cannot work without a strategic approach. In this context, Internet & Idee is a partner capable of integrating the latest Artificial Intelligence technologies in business processes, offering, through its Research and Development department, the skills, tools and experience necessary to conduct companies in the fourth industrial revolution.
