The quality of inferences drawn from Big Data is dependent on a considerable array of quality factors relating to the underlying data, any scrubbing and matching procedures that are used, and the inferencing and decision processes applied to the data. The challenges presented by these quality factors is such that inferences drawn, and decisions made, on the basis of Big Data and Big Data Analytics have a high probability of being inappropriate, or downright wrong. This presentation highlights some key aspects of the challenges, and considers the extent to which organisations using Big Data are exposed to business risk.
