A Review on the Construction of Business Intelligence System Based on Unstructured Image Data

Abstract

Business Intelligence (BI) has been an emerging significant issue in modern government and corporate functions, which attracts the attention of both researchers and merchants. Using the raw data from customers, BI provides effective decision-making knowledge for various cooperate governance operations with the method of Data Warehouse and Data Mining. As the explosive growth of data volume, it has evolved into using unstructured data including image and text in business intelligence system, from the initial descriptive analysis of computational statements. This paper will review the methods of storing and analyzing the unstructured image data used in the construction of BI system, including traditional image processing and novel deep learning methods. In each method, the specific algorithms and application scenarios will be summarized. Together, we will discuss the possible innovative progress of BI system construction and its future trends.
