What are the limitations of our AI?
The effectiveness of AI is primarily bound to its capacity for analyzing and leveraging digitally "published" information. It is not equipped to index or interpret confidential information that lies outside the public domain. Consequently, AI on its own cannot produce insights from data that remains undisclosed or classified. In instances where access to such confidential information is paramount, traditional human intelligence methods, like expert interviews and networking, prove to be more effective.

Recognizing these limitations, we advocate for an 'augmented intelligence' strategy, combining the computational prowess of AI with the nuanced understanding and strategic insight provided by our customer support and innovation analysts. This approach not only optimizes data analysis and insight generation but also ensures a more comprehensive understanding by integrating human expertise where AI falls short.Our commitment to augmented intelligence reflects our understanding of the complex needs of our clients and our dedication to providing tailored, effective solutions. By merging AI's analytical capabilities with the contextual and analytical skills of our human team, we aim to deliver unparalleled value and actionable insights to our clients.

How does MAPEGY process data from start to finish?
The MAPEGY data value chain is a sophisticated process that transforms raw data into actionable insights and visual representations, comprising four major stages:
  1. Data Capture & Acquisition is the foundation of the value chain. In this stage, MAPEGY focuses on gathering raw data through various means such as conceptual data modeling, scouting for relevant data, evaluating the fitness of this data for the intended purpose, curating data sources for quality and relevance, scheduling API calls for automated data collection, processing large datasets, and employing web scraping techniques to harvest data from the internet.
  2. Data Integration & Cleaning addresses the quality and consistency of the collected data. It involves ensuring the data's accuracy and reliability (data quality assurance), linking records and resolving ambiguities between entities (record linkage & entity disambiguation), modeling the data both logically and physically to ensure it is organized effectively, harmonizing disparate data formats and sources to create a coherent dataset (data harmonization), and implementing ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes to refine the data further for analysis, including data profiling and curation to understand and improve the quality of the data.
  3. Data Enrichment & Representation is where MAPEGY adds value to the data by constructing knowledge graphs that map out relationships within the data, applying machine learning algorithms to uncover patterns and insights, utilizing text classification and natural language processing (NLP) to interpret and categorize text data, learning and representing data features in ways that highlight significant characteristics, and developing informetrics and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to quantify the data's implications.
  4. Finally, Information Retrieval & Visualization involves making the processed and enriched data accessible and understandable. This includes parsing queries to understand what information is being sought, applying semantic search techniques to find relevant data based on meaning rather than just keywords, ranking information by relevance, employing dimensionality reduction and clustering to organize data into manageable and intuitive groups, creating graphical layouts and matrix visualizations to represent the data visually, and optimizing performance to ensure that these processes are conducted efficiently and the insights are delivered promptly.
Through this comprehensive approach, MAPEGY effectively transforms raw data into facts and figures that are both insightful and actionable, supporting decision-making and strategy development across various domains.
How does MAPEGY ensure the relevance and accuracy of innovation data?
We employ rigorous data validation processes, including cleaning and standardization, to uphold the accuracy and integrity of our data. Our commitment involves continuous improvement through regular audits and analysis.
