FirstRain to Reveal How to Drive Unmatched Personal Information Experiences at 2014 Semantic Technology & Business Conference

FirstRain, the leader in Personal Business Analytics™, will present an advanced technical workshop on the techniques for driving unmatched personal information experiences at the 2014 Semantic Technology & Business Conference in San Jose, CA (News - Alert). FirstRain's personalized business analytics create a personal interest graph, drawn from business-focused Web and social media, based on a user's role, the product lines they are selling and to whom they sell and then delivers analytics that prompt users on when and who to call. FirstRain senior executives will discuss data and analytics techniques for building user profiles, leveraging explicit versus implicit factors, the challenges of ambiguity and how to discern what a user truly cares about in order to create a highly adaptive, individualized information experience.

Conference and presentation details:

Who: YY Lee, Chief Operations Officer, FirstRain; Marty Betz, Vice Presidnt, Technology, FirstRain; David Cooke, Vice President, Analytics, FirstRain

Where: San Jose Convention Center

When: Tuesday, August 19, 2014, 1:30 PM - 4:45 PM

What: "It's All About Me: Techniques for Driving Truly Personal Information Experiences." Personalization is becoming an assumed part of technology UX. Rapid advances-and increased expectations set by popular consumer apps-create a need and an opportunity for enterprise software to deliver comparable and relevant experiences for each person within existing enterprise applications and workflows. Many semantic and data science techniques focus on characterizing and understanding a target data set. To close the last-mile gap to deliver a high-impact information experience for each person, we need techniques to discern what individuals actually care about. This presents the familiar data challenges of heterogeneity, unstructured, overly sparse or noisy and sometimes self-conflicting data.
