Machine learning as a service offers the distinct advantage of scalable machine resources as and when they are needed. The platforms listed below vary in sophistication. Some offer AI assistance, while others are simply platforms for coordinating work when developing in R or python. Take your pick. Automatic Business Modeler (ABM)…

Decision tree classifiers are widely used because of the visual and transparent nature of the decision tree format. They can suffer badly from overfitting, particularly when a large number of attributes are used with a limited data set. The list of free decision tree classification software below includes full data…

The first five free decision tree software in this list support the manual construction of decision trees, often used in decision support. iBoske, Lucidchart and SilverDecisions are online tools, and the others are installable. All products in this list are free to use forever, and are not free trials (of…

Online decision tree services allow users to design and implement a decision tree and then embed it into an application or web site, or simply export a graphic. The products shown below vary in sophistication – some allowing decision flow diagrams to be built, but without any calculation, while others…

These free machine learning services are mostly throttled versions of the commercial service. wit.io is different, but having been acquired by Facebook this may change. Amazon Machine Learning is a service that makes it easy for developers of all skill levels to use machine learning technology. Amazon Machine Learning provides visualization…

Updated 21 March 2016 Machine Learning as a Service Platforms 2016 Machine learning is a nebulous term used to address capabilities such as face recognition, speech recognition, natural language processing, predictive analytics and specific techniques such as deep learning (deep neural networks). All the services listed below provide APIs so…

Predictive Analytics Software Summary Predictive analytics works on the simple notion that historical data contains useful patterns of behavior that can be discovered by apply pattern seeking algorithms to those data. Any candidate patterns can then be tested and validated in various ways, and if found fit, can be used…

Summary: BigML is a cloud based machine learning platform with an easy to use graphical interface. It also provides simple mechanisms to incorporate predictive models into production applications through its REST API. The platform combines supervised learning (to build predictive models), unsupervised learning (to understand behavior), anomaly detection (used in…

It is clear from the positioning of these startups that machine learning may soon be wrested from the hands of machine learning experts, and put into the hands of the people who most need it – namely business users. All five of these startups are targeting the business user, and…
