Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have become a competitive advantage of the technology industry, helping businesses achieve goals, make critical decisions, and create innovative products and services.
What Is the Current State of Machine Learning?
According to forecasts, in 2022, companies will implement an average of 35 artificial intelligence projects in their organizations.
The AI and ML market is likely to grow by $9 billion by 2022 and compound an annual growth rate of 44%.
There have been several breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies in recent years. Let’s look at the top trends in artificial intelligence and machine learning for 2022.
Role of ML
Machine learning extracts meaningful insights from raw data to solve complex, data-rich business problems quickly. Algorithms learn from the data iteratively and allow computers to find different hidden insights without being explicitly programmed. ML is evolving at such a rapid rate and it is hard to clearly predict all its possibilities.
Such technologies allow businesses to enhance scalability and improve a number of operations. As a result, artificial intelligence tools and numerous ML algorithms have gained tremendous popularity in the business analytics community. In addition, factors such as growing volumes, easy availability of data, cheaper and faster computational processing, and affordable data storage have led to a massive boom.
The Trends of ML in 2022
2021 was a very important year for this industry in terms of breakthroughs, as it was one where we saw an exponential rise in the demand for data professionals, the increase of data engineering, and further developments in MLOps. Let’s have a quick look at the trends of machine learning, which are forecasted to develop rapidly next year.
TinyML
Between 2021 and 2026, IoT connections will nearly triple to 23.6 billion. Each new connection represents an opportunity to use artificial intelligence and machine learning; TinyML technology will be critical to harness this opportunity.
TinyML brings together lightweight and optimized machine learning tools capable of performing analytics at the edge of the cloud. In essence, TinyML is machine learning with minimal resource consumption (this applies to both equipment and energy costs) and without accessing the network.
According to consulting company ABI Research, shipments of TinyML devices will grow from 15.2 million units in 2020 to 2.5 billion units in 2030.
TinyML conducts data analytics on low-power hardware with modest processing power and a low memory footprint, aided by software designed for small inference workloads. This approach could revolutionize the future of the Internet of Things, as the proliferation of TinyML is expected to expand the scope of AI beyond traditional core markets. AI software development is a very promising field.
No-code Machine Learning
There is still a lot of computer coding in ML, but it is not the only option now. No-code ML is a way of programming machine learning applications or platforms without long and difficult pre-processing, modeling, designing algorithms, collecting new data, retraining, deployment, etc.
The main pros of such applications are:
- Quick time to market. Without any code needing to be written or debugged, most of the time spent will be on getting results instead of development.
- Cost reduction. Since automation eliminates the need for longer development time, large data science teams are no longer necessary.
- Easiness: No-code ML is simple to use due to its drag and drop format.
No-code machine learning creates a framework for the most common ML tasks. It uses a set of predefined inputs to simplify the process. There are just five steps:
- Collect user behavior data
- Import training data
- Compose a question similar to one in common speech
- Evaluate the results
- Generate a prediction report
Generative Adversarial Networks
Generative Adversarial Networks (or GANs) are an approach to generative modeling using deep learning methods, such as convolutional neural networks.
Generative modeling is an unsupervised learning task in machine learning that involves automatically discovering and learning the regularities or patterns in input data so that the model can be used to generate or output new examples that plausibly could have been drawn from the original dataset.
MLOps
MLOps is a set of practices and technologies that combine machine learning, DevOps, data development, and model management into a single methodology for creating and implementing several operating machine learning models. MLOps helps businesses grow Data Science and implement quality ML models 80% faster.
Also, the rise of MLOps means an outgrowth of increased dependence on ML algorithms within many businesses. Keeping track of models and how they perform is becoming key to business success.
Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement Learning is a feedback-based Machine learning technique. The machine learning system (agent) learns to behave in an environment by performing the actions and seeing the results of efforts. The agent gets positive feedback on each good action, and for each bad action, the agent receives negative feedback or a penalty.
In Reinforcement Learning, the agent learns automatically using feedback without any labeled data, unlike supervised learning. This technology is beneficial and shows great results in video games. It helps achieve long-term results and solve complex problems, but reinforcement ML may be a risky idea when safety is a significant aspect of an application. Since the ML system performs some random actions to analyze the result, it can also make unsafe decisions in the learning process. It might endanger users’ data unless precautions are taken. To solve this problem, there are safer reinforcement learning systems in development that are designed to take into account the security of user data.
Prediction for ML
As new technologies continue to unfold, machine learning
algorithms can be used more productively. The future of ML will
open numerous opportunities for businesses. The volume of the global software market using algorithms for artificial intelligence and machine learning reached $51.5 billion in 2021, an increase of 14% compared to 2020. And according to forecasts, in 2022 growth will be 21.3%.
Conclusion
ML and AI technologies are becoming a dominant part of the tech industry, helping businesses achieve goals, make critical decisions, and create innovative products and services. Businesses that implement machine learning model technologies and use them already see measurable benefits.
