Whether you know it or not, you know Natural Language Processing (NLP) very well! You use it all the time to ask questions on Google Ask a simple question, get a list of responses that meet your needs. What did we ever do before natural language processing? How else might we use it to simplify our lives?
A few months ago, I was talking to a friend (someone who has worked, for years, in the IT industry) and happened to mention data democratization. In this age of modern business intelligence, augmented analytics and Citizen Data Scientists, one would think that every IT professional would know the term ‘data democratization’ and its crucial importance to the business environment and success. But, my friend did not know or understand the term or its importance. In fact, she was even a bit skeptical about the potential and the movement toward self-serve business intelligence and analytics.
Every business has its unique needs, competitive strategy and challenges. But, not every business understands these factors or has the ability to make fact-based decisions. Even the smallest businesses deal with a lot of data every day and, while they may feel that they don’t need analytics, this oversight can mean that they do not consider all the data they have when they make a decision or that they tend to make decisions based on opinion or ‘gut feel’.
Now that you (and your team) have access to analytics tools, you want to make the best use of these tools. You want to share analysis with others, use that analysis to explain concepts and conclusions in a presentation, and clearly see the root cause of a problem, the opportunity you can leverage and the trends and patterns you need to understand in order to do your job.
If you are trying to convince your executive management or IT team of the benefits of augmented analytics, you really don’t have to look far for support. Augmented analytics benefits are numerous and, while some benefits are self-evident, many are more subtle and will be uniquely effective within you own enterprise.
If your business wants to take on a Citizen Data Scientist initiative, it must enable its culture to support augmented analytics within the enterprise at every skill level and provide support to transform business users into the Citizen Data Scientist role. Citizen Data Scientists will incorporate the use of augmented analytics and enjoy the features of an augmented analytics solution that will support users of every skill level with auto-suggestions and guidance to help them choose visualization techniques and appropriate analytical techniques and algorithms to complete their analysis, share information with other users and make fact-based decisions.
