Chapter 12.7, Problem 12.7ARQ

Explanation of Solution

Machine learning will change systems development projects:

In certain tasks machines are more accurate and faster than humans. Developers face difficulty to write software that can identify face, translate content from one language to another and determining which new stories are relevant to individual users; but these applications are increasingly relevant and profitable.

Developers can create these apps using machine learning by training the system to make the correct decision to lead to the correct outcome and developers need not write codes for it.

Using Fetch! as an example mention the reason for which training will be an integral part of systems development:

Fetch! is a Microsoft application which takes any image and identifies a dog breed which resembles the photo. Microsoft developers used Machine learning to train Fetch to correctly identify dog breed.

• The developers trained fetch by constantly giving fetch different images and letting fetch know when it identified the correct breed and following this procedure fetch learned.
• This process created the complex algorithms that fetch uses to analyze images.
• This shows training will be an integral part of systems development.

The reason for which one is most likely to be involved in systems development project during professional career:

It can be said that Software runs the world and current employers depend on software to make money...
