Microsoft Cognitive Services is a collection of APIs that enable natural and contextual interaction with tools that augment user experiences via the power of machine learnt models.
With Cognitive Services you can tap into an ever-growing collection of powerful algorithms developed by experts in fields including computer vision, emotion, face, language understanding intelligent service (LUIS), speech, text analytics, recommendations, and web language model APIs.
Cognitive services simplify a variety of artificial intelligence based tasks, giving you a quick way to extract insights from data and enhance your analytic capability.
Cognitive services integrate into whatever language and platform you prefer. Including bespoke applications (web applications, bots and APIs). They can also enrich your analytics capability.
Data gathered by and enhanced with cognitive services can be used to add extra capabilities to your analytics. Our analytics team has experts in data visualisation and machine learning and experience at integrating cognitive services including:
Computer vision
State-of-the-art image processing algorithms help you moderate content automatically and build more personalised apps by returning smart insights about faces, images, and emotions.
Speech
Process spoken language in your applications using custom speech service, Bing Speech API or Speaker Recognition API.
Language
Allow your apps to process natural language, evaluate sentiment and topics, and learn how to recognise what users want.
Knowledge
Map complex information and data in order to solve tasks such as intelligent recommendations and semantic search.
Search
Make your apps, webpages, and other experiences smarter and more engaging with the Bing Search APIs.
There are a wide range of cognitive services available, including many new services in development and available pre-release for experimentation. We have worked with many of them in our innovation lab.
