At Kingfisher, Machine Learning (ML) is viewed as a subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI) where — with our principal partner PermissionBit — there has been a focus on deep learning for time series and cybersecurity.  Our approach to Natural Language Processing (NLP), described in a separate NLP White Paper on our website, is another focused component of our overall AI approach.

White Paper

Kingfisher has deep expertise interfacing Natural Language Processing (NLP) pipelines with core algorithms in Artificial Intelligence, including deep neural networks. Our focus has been extracting actionable quantitative intelligence from open source media. Larger datasets and enhanced tools for topic discovery allow us to discover complex and emergent topics, and the combination of high frequency time series analysis and automated entity and concept discovery provides increased understanding of causes and effects.
