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. Sstudents will learn how to build Machine Intelligence based solutions using corresponding open-source software libraries (e.g. TensorFlow). At the same time, 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, Microsoft, etc.

Additional information

Description of prerequisites

There are no specific requirements. However, the course is practical and requires at least basic skills in programming (Python is the main programming languages of the course). It would be easier to follow the course having at least a basic knowledge of SOA and Cloud Computing, Data Mining, Artificial Intelligence, Knowledge Engineering and Natural Language Processing.
