5 Actual Big Data Uses That Make Our Life Better

The Big Data Revolution (with the help of Machine Learning , Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence) can transform our world in a « Big Brother Nightmare »… It could be… but, The Big Data can at the opposite improve our lives for a better tomorrow. Choosing the humanist way will be only a human choice…

So, let’s check these 5 actual cases where the Big Data ecosystem improve humanity lives for real.

By being able to monitor over 1,000 data points per second, researchers have made a surprising discovery: prematurely born children with unusually stable vital signs have high fevers the next day. Thus informed, doctors can now take preventive measures and save more premature babies lives.

Data analysis is used to improve flight performance and aviation safety, reduce turbulence and identify engine failures 2,000 times faster than ever before. Aeronautical data also helps to refine flight plans and inform staff that a part must be replaced a long time before it is found to be defective.

Data analysis, Deep Learning and robotics improve patient follow-up, long-term care and help prevent relapses. Big Data is used to predict which patients are likely to follow their doctor’s advice, and who may not. Mobile applications are developed to check whether a patient is taking medication, such as an inhaler with a GPS chip for asthmatics. Others record information about calls, SMS, geographic location, movement and sleep cycles. So, Doctors and family members can then be alerted if a patient presents alarming signs.

Due to the increase in the quantity and quality of the data collected, but also the ability to analyze and understand them, it will soon be possible to improve patient treatment, understanding diseases and even fighting cancers wth a best efficacity. Thanks to Big Data, healthcare is in full swing.

With Big Data technologies that can handle huge amounts of data, doctors are better equipped to diagnose diseases and contain epidemics.
