【2021 Solutions】 Action Bagel makes AI as simple and efficient as Excel to improve data analysis capabilities

What is AutoML (automated machine learning) and how is it different from ML (traditional data analysis)? It needs further clarification first.

Traditional machine learning must go through data cleaning, data pre-processing, feature engineering, feature selection, algorithm selection, model establishment, model training, parameter adjustment, and then evaluation results to produce model applications. During the process, if there is a problem with the parameters, the algorithm must be re-selected, the model must be re-established, etc., and the process must be repeated hundreds of times. If new information becomes available, all steps must be repeated. Through automated machine learning, the output process of model application only needs to go through the automation of four major steps: data cleaning, feature engineering, data modeling and model evaluation to achieve model application. Even if new data needs to be collected, it can be achieved through Automated machine learning is achieved, saving time and effort.

that young new entrepreneurs or employees in Taiwan do not understand the entrepreneurial model and lack the awareness to regard themselves as part of the company owners This has caused It is a pity that your future is unclear or you have a past-experience mentality that prevents you from staying competent in a new start-up company for a long time I believe that the essence of true entrepreneurship lies in every employee rolling up their sleeves and working hard, so that they can truly enjoy the fruits of entrepreneurial profits Otherwise, for young entrepreneurs or employees who often change tracks, it will be like a rolling stone that gathers no moss , I am unable to take a deep root on the road of entrepreneurship, and I lose my ability to solidly accumulate financial independence Regarding the business promotion challenges of Xinyun Linke, Xie Yuanbao said with emotion that because the Taiwan market does not have a deep understanding of AI software applications, it relies more on open source AI visual analysis or machine learning and other resources on the market, but in fact These AI technology resources are limited in their ability to support customers' AI model needs, resulting in uneven quality of AI visual analysis software in the market Therefore, the impact is more indirect on Xinyunlinke's ability to truly provide customers with professional and data-centric AI image analysis services, and it also reduces the company's original business value in customer reference In terms of technical research and development challenges, the visual analysis AI platform cannot rely solely on AI model experts It must gather talents in various fields such as cloud, machine learning, data science, front-end and back-end and other professional team combinations to make the platform operate successfully Xie Yuanbao said that he believes that only through the automatic learning of the visual analysis AI platform, automatic fast and accurate data
