Augmented analytics

Augmented analytics is an analysis approach that uses existing and emerging software technologies such as advanced statistics, machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) to develop sophisticated insights from data. Business intelligence (BI), management information (MI) and analytics are three separate though interlocking domains within information technology.
