Learning outcomes

By any measure, the past few years have been landmark years for the discussion around Artificial Intelligence and its potential impact on business and society. Being based on Artificial Intelligence, Cognitive Computing Systems are "systems that learn at scale, reason with purpose and interact with humans naturally". Cognitive Computing solutions encompass Machine Learning, Reasoning, Natural Language Processing, Deep Learning, Speech and Vision, Human-Computer Interaction and more. The course aims to provide practical view to the domain of Cognitive Computing and Machine Intelligence. Students will be capable to design and build own services and apps using cloud-based Cognitive Services of such big competing player in this field as IBM, Google and Microsoft. At the same time, students will learn how to build Machine Intelligence based solutions using corresponding open-source software libraries (e.g. TensorFlow).
