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.
