Hackathon Themes
Theme #1 – Predictive Analysis
Predictive analytics is the use of data, statistical algorithms, and machine learning techniques to identify the likelihood of future outcomes based on historical data. The goal is to go beyond knowing what has happened to provide the best assessment of what will happen in the future.
Theme #2 – Audio/Visual Analytics
Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence (AI) that enables computers and systems to derive meaningful information from digital images, videos, and other visual inputs — and take actions or make recommendations based on that information.
Theme #1 – Prescriptive Analysis
Prescriptive analytics is a type of data analytics to help organizations make better decisions through the analysis of raw data. Specifically, it factors information about possible situations or scenarios, available resources, past performance, and current performance, and suggests a course of action or strategy.
