Netflix

Cloud architecture is highly scalable and allows Netflix to quickly provision computing resources as its sees the need. Traffic patterns are analysed across device types and localities to help improve the reliability of video streaming and plan for growth.

The technology is also used for Netflix’s recommendation engine based on a customer’s viewing habits and stated preferences.

Pricing

Sticking with Netflix, the Washington Post theorises that Netflix could vary its price if it had enough information on each user to know how much they might pay.

To a certain degree, this happens in online retail with airlines targeting previous browsers, and some stores (such as Staples) changing prices depending on which physical store the customer is nearest.

The Wall Street journal has also documented that Orbitz, the travel website, has in the past charged Mac visitors higher than those on Windows. Taking into account IP, device, age, past visits, and more variables, throwing them into a database and calculating a charging threshold can conceivably be termed big data.

Retail Habits

Target uses a wealth of customer data to predict future purchasing habits. Specifically, pregnancy kicks off a chain of purchases that are fairly distinctive – Target’s data collection is spookily prescient, sending one teen customer nappy vouchers before her own father knew she was pregnant.

Weather

WeatherSignal works by repurposing the sensors in Android devices to map atmospheric readings. Handsets such as the Samsun S4, contain a barometer, hygrometer (humidity), ambient thermometer and lightmeter.

Obviously, the prospect of millions of personal weather stations feeding into one machine that will average out readings is exciting, and one that has the potential to improve forecasting.

Heart Disease

IBM are predicting heart disease with big data. Analysis of electronic health record data could reveal symptoms at earlier stages than previously.

IBM uses the Apache Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) to extract the known signs and symptoms of heart failure from available text.

With no single strong indicator, only weak signals or ‘co-morbidities’, such as hypertension, diabetes, associated medications, ECG and genomic data etc. can be analysed. Drawing out probabilities from disparate and size-differing databases is a task for big data analytics.

Infectious diseases

Again IBM, looks at a model and data from the World Health Organization. IBM looked at local climate and temperature to find correlations with how malaria spreads. This analysis is used to predict the location of future outbreaks. The Spatio Temporal Epidemiological Modeler (STEM) is free and open source.

Doctor performance

Crimson is a system that shows variables including complications, hospital readmissions and measures of cost. It colour codes signals as to how well a doctor is performing against his or her peers.

The Wall Street Journal suggests the technology has reduced average stay and average cost at the Long Beach Memorial Hospital.

The limit for the data that can be analyzed keeps growing every day. It is only through the smart data analytics methods that are discussed that the data can be analyzed in an efficient and judicious manner.

The data is only interpreted when knowledge of multiple disciplines such as data mining, machine learning algorithms, parallel processing, and data management practices are effectively combined.

The applications are manifold and spread across multiple spheres. Understanding climate change, finding alternative energy sources, and preserving the health of an ageing population are all cross-disciplinary problems that require high-performance data storage, smart analytics, transmission and mining to solve.

Generally, data mining (sometimes called data or knowledge discovery) is the process of analyzing data from different perspectives and summarizing it into useful information - information that can be used to increase revenue, cuts costs, or both. Data mining software is one of a number of analytical tools for analyzing data. It allows users to analyze data from many different dimensions or angles, categorize it, and summarize the relationships identified. Technically, data mining is the process of finding correlations or patterns among dozens of fields in large relational databases.

# data[].attributes.body
So basically, what is data mining? What are its real life applications?

# data[].attributes.body
One of the reasons health care is lagging behind other industries is it has relied for too long on standard regression-based methods that have their limits. Many other industries, notably retail, have long been leveraging newer methods such as machine learning andgraph analytics  to gain new insights. But health care is catching up.

For example, hospitals are starting to use graph analytics to evaluate the relationship across many complex variables such as laboratory results, nursing notes, patient family history, diagnoses, medications, and patient surveys to identify patients who may be at risk of an adverse outcome. Better knowledge and efficient assessment of disparate facts about patients at risk could mean the difference between timely intervention and a missed window for treatment.

Data mining deals with the generation of new databases based on set of old databases.

In data mining, the old databases of individuals or groups that are collected are analysed, visualised, categorised and summarised to generate new databases of that individual or group. This article discusses the techniques of data mining with big data. Big data is a repertoire of large, complex data that are from autonomous, multiple sources.

Data mining can be done using various methodologies such as Neural Network, Decision Trees, Genetic Algorithm, Rule Extraction etc.

Artificial neural network deals with the proper analysis of biological neural patterns by simulating the connections that exist between sets of data in an actual biological neural network. By performing such analysis, new databases that are compatible with the neural pattern and are extensions of old databases can be generated.

Decision tree are used to simplify complex decisions into smaller logical decisions which mostly contain two outcomes. This allows effective simulation of human reaction in such situations.

In Genetic algorithms method, new databases are made based on the family background and history. Here, the analysis of the individual or organisation are made up to the level of their chromosomes. This helps in detection of non mutated databases that can be produced from the traits of individual. Decisions, actions that are made by individuals which contradict their traits cannot be executed properly.

With the advancement of technology day by day , accuracy of data prediction has been increasing which helps in analysing even non traited decisions, actions etc. of the individuals.

This article discusses the notion of extracting data from analyzing large data sets and using this knowledge in dealing with healthcare related phenomena.

The central issue related to the topic is, that this is entirely against the desire of VPH (Virtual Physiological Human) Researchers to build detailed mathematically simplified mechanistic models for each individual patient. But what seems prudent at the current stage is to adopt a middle path between the two; that is: use a model, but make it partly phenomenological and partly mechanistic.

Thus, this paper proposes that we can successfully adopt this ‘middle path’ and combine Big Data Analytics successfully with VPH Technologies to yield viable medical solutions. For this to be implemented, it is mandatory that we further develop existing Big Data technologies to cope with certain specific applications that arise due to the merging of two mildly incompatible fields.

The paper further outlines that there is a crucial need for diversion of research grants to this ‘hybrid’ field of medicine, or at least better target the research funds into this field, for the simple reason that this field has many complex requirements and technical issues. Such requirements are: working with sensitive data; analytics of complex and mixed up data spaces, including non-textual information; distributed data management under constraints of security and performance; specialized analytics to integrate bioinformatics and systems biology information with clinical observations at tissue, organ and organisms scales; and specialized analytics to define the ‘physiological envelope’ during the daily life of each patient.

In conclusion, we see that Big Data Technologies have immense potential in the field of Biomedicine, but the only stumbling block in its immediate implementation appears to be the occurrence of a large number of technical snags. It remains necessary to operate with an open mindset so as to continue domain related research, but also to not repeat past mistakes and take calculated risks with the new Big Data Technology.

# data[].attributes.body
The term ‘big data analytics’ emerged in order to engage in the ever increasing amount of scientific and engineering data with general analytics techniques that support the often more domain-specific data analysis process.

The big data challenge can only be adequately addressed when knowledge of various different fields such as data mining, machine learning algorithms, parallel processing, and data management practices are effectively combined.

Scientific disciplines face a huge challenge due to large amounts of date. Hence, ‘smart data analytics methods’ are required to deal with these data sets.

There are ‘six concrete phases’ that are typical for a data mining project: (1) problem/business understanding; (2) data understanding; (3) data preparation; (4) modeling; (5) evaluation; (6) deployment.

·  ‘problem/business understanding phase’ – the general steps such as stating the objectives and goals of the situation(e.g. data analytics success criteria)

·  ‘data understanding’-a few basic reports are made for the data given initially (collection and data sets), including data (collection) description, exploration options, and data quality statements

·  ‘data preparation’- refers to the tasks the precisely elaborate the data sets in the problem, and whether they should be included or not . It also reformats or deletes the data as required

·   ‘modeling’- includes the selection of modeling techniques, text designs and related parameter settings to build the model

·  ‘evaluation’- the steps which assess the results and make sense out of it

·   ‘deployment’- enables a systematic way of performing analytics on a regular basis including a monitoring and maintenance plan.

The concept offers a solid foundation and the setup is plausible, however multiple algorithms are required to interpret the problem at hand. Methods of smart data analysis allows for using petabytes rather than gigabytes or terabytes as used in the past. This makes it efficient for large data sets, to get information out of them.
