Viewing and Managing Authority Collection Using New Navigator for i

You can now use the Authority Collection feature of IBM i in graphical form.

By Carol Woodbury

I’m a huge fan of the Authority Collection feature added in IBM i 7.3 and enhanced in 7.4. But administrators who aren’t fans of using a command line and/or SQL may not have taken advantage of this powerful feature. If that’s you or you primarily administrate the system via Navigator for i, I’m hoping this article will help you start using Authority Collection in New Nav.

Artificial Intelligence, Part 3: Data Preparation and Model Tuning

You may recall that in earlier articles of this series, we saw that artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) are technologies that are primarily used to analyze immense volumes of data to find common patterns that can be turned into actionable predictions and insights. Read Part 1, Understanding Data and Part 2: Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning.

By Roger Sanders

However, as data generation and collection grows, drawing inferences from the data available becomes more and more challenging. It’s not unheard of to have data sets with hundreds or even thousands of columns (dimensions) and millions of rows. And, the more dimensions you have, the more combinations of data you need to examine to find patterns amongst all the possible combinations of data available. That’s why reducing the total number of dimensions used is vital.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Cases: Healthcare

According to a study conducted prior to the coronavirus pandemic (in 2019) by the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, an estimated 40,000 to 80,000 deaths occur each year in U.S. hospitals because of misdiagnosis.

By Roger Sanders

And an estimated 12 million Americans suffer a diagnostic error each year in a primary care setting – 33% of which result in serious or permanent damage or death. So, there’s no question that more lives could be saved by successfully integrating artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) into the healthcare ecosystem.
