Reducing service time using IoT-based solution
Digital video broadcasters using the terrestrial mode typically have equipment in distributed & distant locations which necessitate in-person maintenance visits by technicians. A solution was needed to reduce the time and effort for this maintenance process Alumnus developed a solution that enabled the technician to identify all problematic equipment, along with identifying the root-causes, within […]
Intuitive user portals for mobile QoS
A leading Mobile Operator needed an analytics platform to provide innovative and customized visualizations of the Quality of Service and coverage provided to their customers. Some required features included Network planning, analysing a coverage area for quality and other metrics, and identifying Hot’ or problem areas and cells, tracking and analysing a subscriber call path […]
Aggregation of open-source documents on medical research
There was a need for a comprehensive, end-to-end analysis and intelligence platform that can aggregate online articles, journals, research papers and news and create summarisations out of them. Additionally, this platform also must find out the similarity or difference between authors and articles and measure the authenticity of the article. Alumnus built an information aggregator […]
Data integration platform for streaming analytics
To address their Big Data processing requirements, a client wanted to create a custom-built data integration platform to provide near real-time access for processing and analytics of mainframe and streaming data. However, the traditional Data Warehousing approach of ETL and staging areas limited their ability to deliver results to the business. An innovative solution was sought, which is where Alumnus […]
Multimedia streaming and video calling apps
Applications and multimedia players based on Video-streaming became common as soon as more bandwidth came to be available, courtesy 3G and 4G. As a result, software that can deliver and support these features were needed. Alumnus played a significant role in this revolution, building software for video calling and entertainment. We contributed to and used […]
Reducing pharmacovigilance cycle time
The FDA requires drug companies to monitor the safety of their drugs for many years after they have approval for general availability. Pharmacovigilance is the activity which tracks; in multiple geographies; the use of drugs and reports suspected adverse reactions. Our client was responsible for sifting through millions of prescriptions, hospital records and FDA forms to decide on the […]
Device abuse pattern detection
To minimise escalating warranty claims and costs for devices damaged in use, a leading industrial handheld mobile device company needed to better understand device usage patterns that drove device damage. This involved detecting types of device uses from device movement patterns and separating proper device use from device abuse, thereby allowing a data-based assessment to be made about applicability of Device Warranties. To detect device movements, […]
Accurate stud detection under building surfaces
The first problem we solved was detecting the studs behind a wall with higher accuracy than the existing stud detector (data collected by picking up BT signals given out by the Stud Detector). Applying ML over collected data we have been able to create a way to have sharper definitions of the stud. It was […]
Natural Language based IoT platform
The current IoT landscape has devices with countless protocols, platforms and silos, which leads to IoT interoperability issues. Alumnus’ client sought to build a platform from scratch to enable humans, smart devices and services to interact with each other in natural language, in order to resolve that interoperability. This was seen as a critical way for industry to realise business value from their IoT investments. […]
