The top tweeted terms are the trending industry discussions happening on Twitter by key individuals (influencers) as tracked by the platform.
1. Machine Learning – 5,982 mentions
Techniques to leverage machine learning algorithms, application of the technology across sectors such as agriculture, and data protection techniques in machine learning, were some of the popularly discussed topics in August. According to an article shared by Dr Ganapthi Pulipaka, a chief data scientist, machine learning is one of the most popular techniques for analysing images. The other techniques being support vendor machines (SVM), artificial neural networks (ANN), and regression analysis, among others.
In other news, Jason Brownlee, a machine learning specialist, shared an article on the framework of data preparation techniques in machine learning. In some cases, the data of the machine learning model may itself suggest the data preparation needed. In other cases, it requires a structured thought, and systematic evaluation of the techniques on the raw data.

By GlobalData2. Big Data – 3,155 mentions
Complexities, challenges, and opportunities of utilising big data, and evaluating best time-series models for urgent pandemic management, were widely discussed during the month. Dr Sally Eaves, a professor and chief technology officer, for instance, shared an article on the data warehouse journey. The article discusses the importance of data warehouses, how they work, how enterprises can leverage them to de-silo data, and the need for exploring them in an era of collaborations and data sharing.
In other news, Kirk Borne, a principal data scientist and astrophysicist, discussed how best time-series models are being compared for the urgent management of the pandemic. For instance, the TimeDistributed Layer is primarily used to present chronological data that helps in identifying trends, actions, and directions, the article noted.
