Simulation and synthetic data are emerging as capabilities that promise to transform how AI solutions are built and managed. Although simulation, synthetic data and AI are different technology paradigms, they are related and complement each other. For example, simulation can evaluate the performance and sensitivity of AI algorithms to improve resilience and enhance their decision-making capabilities. And, AI-enriched simulation can identify the most promising simulations to run on a massive data set. This is a must-attend session to learn how the worlds of simulation, synthetic data and AI are combining.

Metadata is generated practically every time data is accessed in any tool, platform or application. This is a largely untapped resource that is real-time documentation of exactly how, when and why any person in the enterprise uses data from any and all assets available to them. Active metadata is the conversion of these otherwise passive observations into ML-enabled, automated data management.
