Our Portfolio Company, and Augmented intelligence solutions provider Squirro has launched a new machine learning service that is one of the world’s first to include an Annotation Workbench that enables organisations to compose training data sets within the platform.
Squirro’s supervised machine learning classifier will learn to make predictions from labelled data, delivering deep insight from an organisation’s unstructured data. Data scientists, analytics staff or even business users can now also add the training data that is so vital to machine learning, and can do so via the Annotation Workbench directly within the Squirro platform. “Augmented intelligence and machine learning are becoming integral to many organisations, but machine learning is dependent on training data to be truly effective,” said Toni Birrer, Chief Technology Officer, Squirro. “Our new machine learning service is a major leap forward, offering the Squirro Annotation Bench that allows users to create training data, which can then be used to design, train and apply the machine learning model.”
