Deploying AI in the Enterprise

Abstract

Following AI evolution in the previous chapter, this chapter is devoted to key concepts of machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and decision optimization (DO). We don’t go into the details on the 101 of these concepts or mathematical and statistical science behind these areas; instead, we are discussing considerations about their practical application in enterprises or other organizations. It should serve as a high-level introduction for readers with limited knowledge in this space.
