Adding Intelligence to your solutions
You can easily extend your application with Intelligence by using one of the Cognitive Services like:
- Search – web, visual, entity, news, custom, image, autosuggest
- Speech, speech to text, text to speech, translation, recognition
- Vision, face, content moderator, and custom vision
- Language, text analytics, translator, spell check, understanding
- Knowledge, QnA, custom decision
Had here for getting started with Cognitive Services: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/.
Where I have used them:
- Added speech to text for dictation in medical application
- Added search to pharmaceutical application for looking up medications
Cognitive Services SDKs packages:
- Vision:
Microsoft.Azure.CognitiveServices.Vision.ComputerVision
- Speech:
Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech
- Text:
Microsoft.Azure.CognitiveServices.Language.TextAnalytics
As you can see they help you add learning algorithms to your applications with minimal effort.
