AI Assisted Business Analytics: Techniques for Reshaping Competitiveness
by Joseph BoffaThe primary path to success, is to use software designed to sample and analyze cashflow and then link that analysis, with forecasting and market research. The case study will start with a small business income statement indicating a cashflow problem. The analysis that follows will be a comprehensive statistical approach of fiscal management. The case study will provide an overview of the total process of controlling and analyzing cashflow. Business prosperity depends on: 1- Staying in touch with cashflow by means of regular statistical audits2- Transition to statistical methods for forecasting future cashflow3- Link cashflow with customer perception and satisfaction The book is intended for courses with prerequisites that the student has a knowledge of accounting and is comfortable in using Excel. It uses professional Excel with its Analytics Toolkit. Complete knowledge of the Toolkit is not a prerequisite since the book will adequately cover the relevant analytic tools. There is no need for separate statistical software such as SPSS or SAS. The book is intended for intermediate/advanced college level courses in business financial methods and control.

AI and Analytics for Public Health: Proceedings of the 2020 INFORMS International Conference on Service Science (Springer Proceedings in Business and Economics)
by Hui Yang Weiwei Chen Robin QiuThis volume offers the state-of-the-art research and developments in service science and related research, education and practice areas. It showcases emerging technology and applications in fields including healthcare, energy, finance, information technology, transportation, sports, logistics, and public services. Regardless of size and service, a service organization is a service system. Because of the socio-technical nature of a service system, a systems approach must be adopted to design, develop, and deliver services, aimed at meeting end users’ both utilitarian and socio-psychological needs. Effective understanding of service and service systems often requires combining multiple methods to consider how interactions of people, technology, organizations, and information create value under various conditions. Chapters highlight ways to approach such technical challenges in service science and are based on submissions from the 2020 INFORMS International Conference on Service Science.

AI for Diversity (AI for Everything)
by Roger A. SøraaArtificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly impacting many aspects of people’s lives across the globe, from relatively mundane technology to more advanced digital systems that can make their own decisions. While AI has great potential, it also holds great peril depending on how it is designed and used. AI for Diversity questions how AI technology can lead to inclusion or exclusion for diverse groups in society. The way data is selected, trained, used, and embedded into societies can have unfortunate consequences unless we critically investigate the dangers of systems left unchecked, and can lead to misogynistic, homophobic, racist, ageist, transphobic, or ableist outcomes. This book encourages the reader to take a step back to see how AI is impacting diverse groups of people and how diversity-awareness strategies can impact AI.

AI for Learning (AI for Everything)
by Carmel Kent Benedict du BoulayWhat is artificial intelligence (AI)? How can AI help a learner, a teacher or a system designer? What are the positive impacts of AI on human learning? AI for Learning examines how artificial intelligence can, and should, positively impact human learning, whether it be in formal or informal educational and training contexts. The notion of ‘can’ is bound up with ongoing technological developments. The notion of ‘should’ is bound up with an ethical stance that recognises the complementary capabilities of human and artificial intelligence, as well as the objectives of doing good, not doing harm, increasing justice and maintaining fairness. The book considers the different supporting roles that can help a learner – from AI as a tutor and learning aid to AI as a classroom moderator, among others – and examines both the opportunities and risks associated with each.

AI for Robotics: Toward Embodied and General Intelligence in the Physical World
by Alishba Imran Keerthana GopalakrishnanThis book approaches robotics from a deep learning perspective. Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed many fields, including robotics. This book shows you how to reimagine decades-old robotics problems as AI problems and is a handbook for solving problems using modern techniques in an era of large foundation models. The book begins with an introduction to general-purpose robotics, how robots are modeled, and how physical intelligence relates to the movement of building artificial general intelligence, while giving you an overview of the current state of the field, its challenges, and where we are headed. The first half of this book delves into defining what the problems in robotics are, how to frame them as AI problems, and the details of how to solve them using modern AI techniques. First, we look at robot perception and sensing to understand how robots perceive their environment, and discuss convolutional networks and vision transformers to solve robotics problems such as segmentation, classification, and detection in two and three dimensions. The book then details how to apply large language and multimodal models for robotics, and how to adapt them to solve reasoning and robot control. Simulation, localization, and mapping and navigation are framed as deep learning problems and discussed with recent research. Lastly, the first part of this book discusses reinforcement learning and control and how robots learn via trial and error and self-play. The second part of this book is concerned with applications of robotics in specialized contexts. You will develop full stack knowledge by applying the techniques discussed in the first part to real-world use cases. Individual chapters discuss the details of building robots for self-driving, industrial manipulation, and humanoid robots. For each application, you will learn how to design these systems, the prevalent algorithms in research and industry, and how to assess trade-offs for performance and reliability. The book concludes with thoughts on operations, infrastructure, and safety for data-driven robotics, and outlooks for the future of robotics and machine learning. In summary, this book offers insights into cutting-edge machine learning techniques applied in robotics, along with the challenges encountered during their implementation and practical strategies for overcoming them. What You Will Learn Explore ML applications in robotics, covering perception, control, localization, planning, and end-to-end learning Delve into system design, and algorithmic and hardware considerations for building efficient ML-integrated robotics systems Discover robotics applications in self-driving, manufacturing, and humanoids and their practical implementations Understand how machine learning and robotics benefit current research and organizations Who This Book Is For Software and AI engineers eager to learn about robotics, seasoned robotics and mechanical engineers looking to stay at the cutting edge by integrating modern AI, and investors, executives or decision makers seeking insights into this dynamic field

AI for Sports (AI for Everything)
by Chris Brady Karl Tuyls Shayegan OmidshafieiIt seems that artificial intelligence (AI) is always just five years away, but it never arrives. Recently, however, developments have made the practical utility of game theory a genuine reality. Will sport provide the petri dish in which AI will prove itself? What do domain specialists like managers and coaches want to know that they can’t currently find out, and can AI provide the answer? What competitive advantages might AI provide for recruitment, performance and tactics, health and fitness, pedagogy, broadcasting, eSports, gambling and stadium design in the future? Written by leading experts in both sports management and AI, AI for Sports begins to answer these and many other questions on the future of AI for sports.
