Data Science as a Service

Introducing Cambridge Consultants

Although our expertise and specialist deep learning team at Scan is always expanding, we recognise when a project is large or complex enough to require a dedicated AI think tank – additional resource in the form of Cambridge Consultants.

Machine learning is at the core of a new wave of artificial intelligence applications limited only by our imagination. New algorithmic approaches, recent jumps in processing power and large training data sets generated by internet users mean that, for the first time, machines can learn to solve useful problems without explicit programming. Cambridge Consultants work at the frontier of this vital, transformative technology, developing systems that leverage deep learning techniques to achieve unprecedented performance in a huge range of applications.

From detecting anomalies and attacks in networks and learning to control legacy systems to high-performance audio and image processing and interpretation, optimising infrastructure deployment and natural communication with humans, the possibilities are endless.

The centrepiece of its ground-breaking development is the Digital Greenhouse. A purpose-built facility designed for discovering, developing and testing machine learning approaches in a fast, secure environment. Inspired by botanical sciences, its team ‘grows’ hundreds of strains of models to understand where the richest pickings are to be found – beyond the confines of ordinary software development methodologies. New algorithmic hopefuls are assessed against long-standing commercial and industrial challenges, such as optimising the deployment of cellular infrastructure or detecting anomalies on a manufacturing line.
