Data Quality Empowers AI, ML and automation

Data quality is of critical importance, especially in the era of automated decisions, AI, ML and continuous process optimization. Corporations need to be data-driven and data quality is a critical pre-condition to achieve this.

The “Data-driven” here implies much more than just technology and data.  it requires a special mentality,  a leadership attitudes, that makes it possible to take informed decisions by systematically using data to improve business performance.

To lead the data-driven culture, corporations need to first establish a stream of clean, accurate, reliable, and active data feeds reflecting all major business activities. All these qualities are critical for employees to trust the data, the technology, and the tools – any limitation can prove to be the single point of failure in making the data-driven vision happen.

The success of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) applications requires large quantities of training and test data. This need creates critical challenges not only concerning the availability of such data, but also regarding its quality.  ML and AI are highly dependent on the quality of data used to train models. Incomplete, erroneous, Poor data quality can lead to can lead to inaccurate predictions, unreliable model performance and ultimately poor decisions.

This why this session will be focused on the Data quality which is of critical importance especially in the era of Artificial Intelligence and automated decisions. Share real success stories on how the use of data allowed smart decisions with real financial gains for the company

There are many aspects to data quality, including consistency, integrity, accuracy, and completeness. According to Wikipedia, data is generally considered high quality if it is “fit for its intended uses in operations, decision making and planning, and data is deemed of high quality if it correctly represents the real-world construct to which it refers.”

How communication and data standards enable the automation and data management lifecycle

Burkhard Schaefer, AnIML Task Group Lead, SiLA Consortium

Communication and data standards form the bedrock of efficient laboratory processes. This presentation explores the role of SiLA (Standardization in Lab Automation) and AnIML (Analytical Information Markup Language) in driving automation, data management, and machine learning. SiLA ensures seamless instrument control and workflow orchestration, while AnIML structures data for consistent analysis and collaboration. Learn how the synergy between these standards fuels closed-loop experimentation, enabling optimized parameter adjustments using real-time insights. Through real-world cases, this presentation discusses the impact of standards in shaping modern laboratory practices, fostering innovation, and accelerating research.
