Using Unstructured Data To Identify Risk and Predict Events

Abstract

As we generate more and more data everyday much of that is unstructured namely text, images, video and audio. On the contrary much of the analytics and reporting is based upon structured data (Relational Databases, Spreadsheets). Unstructured data can be a valuable asset in predicting adverse events and in root cause analysis. In this session we will talk about the ways in which unstructured data can be leveraged by looking at specific use cases in the Trucking Industry.
