Launching into Computer Science

Research Topics in Computer Science – Data Science, AI and Standards

Unit 12

The current research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is very advanced and has already changed the world. However, there are still many challenges for deploying it in all social sectors. Nevertheless, AI has already enhanced the service, health industry and many others through the human ability to recognise the pattern and accordingly provide the proper feedback. In addition Internet of Things and Data Science plays a significant role in reaching the best potential from AI. The machine's prediction is better the more data the device collects. Hence a permanent connection to the internet is essential for the machine to collect a wide range of data.
Without any research, there are no developments.

Outcomes

  • Summary of the learning outcomes

This unit aims to:

  • Explore the trends and research topics in the area of computer science
  • Identify and define a problem in the area of computer science
  • Propose a research question and then support the research question with adequate literature-based evidence
  • Reflection

What exactly have I learnt and how?

Since my end-of-module assignment is about the application of AI, the last unit provided me with great information about the current research on AI. Moreover, thanks to the outline of the end of module assignment in unit 5, I already found the title and proper research materials to write it. Nevertheless, it was challenging because of the case study at Volkswagen. Moreover, recent references were limited or not available because of the confidentiality agreement. However, ultimately I learned more about the AI connection with Machine Learning and Deep Learning. As a result, I am sure that AI will be the key to the organisation's success in the future.
