What patterns do they instinctively recognize? Jose Michaelraj and Kayalvizhi T’s revolutionary whitepaper focuses on: • The hidden heuristics behind performance data checks • Why canned algorithms alone aren’t enough - and what’s missing • A novel machine learning model that bridges human intuition with AI Can we design a win-win approach where machine learning enhances, rather than replaces, human expertise? Discover the future of performance data quality.
