DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Financial Evolution: AI, Machine Learning and Sentiment Analysis” conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
This is a sophisticated conference that not only interrogates and explores the implications of AI & ML in the financial services industry but also goes on to identify the investment opportunities of sharing knowledge and exploiting IP in the finance domain.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI & ML) and Sentiment Analysis are said to predict the future through analysing the past – the Holy Grail of the finance sector. They can replicate cognitive decisions made by humans yet avoid the behavioural biases inherent in humans.
Processing news data and social media data and classifying (market) sentiment and how it impacts Financial Markets is a growing area of research. The field has recently progressed further with many new alternative data sources, such as email receipts, credit/debit card transactions, weather, geo-location, satellite data, Twitter, Micro-blogs and search engine results. AI & ML are gaining adoption in the financial services industry especially in the context of compliance, investment decisions and risk management.
