How to Select Effective Dashboard KPIs
This blog previews a webinar that discusses how to find the best data to drive your integrated business planning processes.
Part 3: How NLP Benefits the Supply Chain – Internal Structured Data
This blog discusses how utilizing a semantic parsing method can help a less experienced user transform their data questions into advanced database queries, and how it can help detect errors in datasets.
Part 2: How Natural Language Processing (NLP) Can Benefit the Supply Chain – Internal Unstructured Data
We know how to deal with structured data but working with unstructured data might be a bit more time consuming and challenging. There are multiple solutions that NLP offers to transform your unstructured enterprise data to structured data.
Tools of the Trade: National Puzzle Day, Probability and the Board Game Risk
National Puzzle Day is January 29th. It is a day Arkieva celebrates because the ongoing challenge of smarter supply chain decisions involves supersized puzzles and games. This year we will focus on probabilistic forecasting using the board game Risk. This blog will show how Monte Carlo Simulation can be used to estimate the average number of “wins”, but critically the range of possible “wins” across some interval.
Two Penny Model and COVID-19 Breakthrough Cases – Avoiding Data Driven Disaster
Learn how a simple binomial model can help anticipate the future including COVID-19 breakthrough cases just as models help a firm estimate it's future.
COVID Vaccine Logistics: Helpful Lessons from Complex Manufacturing
Today we will discuss a few of the logistics challenges from the perspective of an industry expert with lots of time in the trenches. Arkieva is ready to help Delaware.
Data Science Without Modeling Impact is a Path to Disaster – Simulation to Explore the Impact of Group Size on COVID-19 Spread
In this blog post, we will briefly review some examples of being “COVID-19 adrift” with just data and then focus on the primary task – demonstrating how modeling can be used to understand the impact of group size on COVID-19 spread.
Data Science Tools of the Trade: Monte Carlo Computer Simulation
Monte Carlo Discrete Event Computer Simulation is a particularly powerful and flexible “tool of the trade” for a wide range of challenges in supply chain and operations management. This blog provides some basics on MCDECS, the next blog will use MCDECS to explain why limiting the size of a gathering helps reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Lessons for COVID-19 and Supply Chain Management – Six Months Later
Over the past six months, significant progress has been made in understanding COVID-19 and reducing its health and economic impact. In this blog, we will not rehash this information, but to identify open issues in handling the current challenge of tackling COVID-19 and relate this to the challenge of managing supply chains.
Statistical Forensics: Manipulating Probabilities to Determine the Real Risk From Viruses
The risk of viruses is often a topic of conversation in current times. One of the dominant questions at social gatherings is - what is a bigger risk (defined as serious illness) this fall and winter: regular virus (REGVIR) or COVID-19...
