How WDSI offers Data Science Research Grants

-
By the turn of 2025, the world is expected to need 2.5 million data science professionals to work with organizations and governments in a structured manner. They will help organizations achieve the capacity to do things correctly at the first attempt itself, and will also facilitate quicker and more accurate decision-making driven by data.To make a move toward attaining this goal, the World Data Science Initiative (WDSI) has been set up. WDSI is working together with a number of technical schools and universities across the world, and the target is to have 250,000 talented data science professionals by the year 2022. In order to attain this goal, it will offer more than USD 300 million in grants for universities, which they can use to obtain accreditations for themselves and also assist their students in obtaining good certifications on the most advanced vendor-neutral standards in data science in the world.The main goal of data science is to facilitate quicker and better decision-making by companies, driven by the power of data.

By AI Trends Staff     As the  US Navy  strives to get to a 355-ship fleet by 2034, part of a 30-year plan the Navy outlined in 2019, it is finding it economical to use underwater autonomous vehicles. They meet many of the requirements of larger submarines at a fraction of the cost.     For example, the Navy awarded Boeing a $43-million contract to build four Orca Extra Large Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (XLUUVs) last year, described in a release from  USNI News .      Boeing based its winning Orca XLUUV design on its Echo Voyager unmanned diesel-electric submersible. The 51-foot-long submersible is launched from a pier and can operate autonomously while sailing up to 6,500 nautical miles without being connected to a manned mother ship, according to the Navy.   In military spending terms, the versatility of the Orca at the price is “fairly unheard of in military spending,” according to an account in  The National Interest . The nearest equivalent was cited as the Navy’s Littoral Com

The regulator on Tuesday asked market participants and Canadians to come forth with information that could assist the regulator's probe on whether the deal will reduce or prevent competition. The Competition Bureau said its review was ongoing and no conclusions have been made. ... Read More on Datafloq
