Machine Learning for Expert Systems in Data Analysis

Imagine a system that automates the job of data science in such a way that if given sales data of a store nationwide can analyze the rate of sales of a product relative to its supply and demand and other necessary variables and is able to decide on the best places for the company to open new stores and help them to decide on the best possible ways to distribute their products. Data Science is an interdisciplinary field that is very much like data mining and Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD), involving the analysis of data to make useful inferences and deduction. However, taking into consideration the information overload of this age, it has become a pressing need to automate the process of analyzing this data. At the point of this need is where data science meets machine learning. Machine learning being a powerful tool for automation can be merged with data science and analysis to make for a more effective faster way to analyze data. In this paper, an application of expert systems for data analysis would be discussed as a case study.
