What is Cognitive Computing?
Three capabilities differentiate cognitive systems from traditional programmed computing systems…
ReasoningThey reason. They understand underlying ideas and concepts. They form hypothesis. They infer and extract concepts.
LearningThey never stop learning getting more valuable with time. Advancing with each new piece of information, interaction, and outcome. They develop “expertise”.
UnderstandingCognitive systems understand like humans do.
…. allowing them to interact with humans.
How Watson Learns….

Deeper Engagement - Students
Deployed an always-on one-stop personalized service that aggregates essential information for every student –to help students to get instant answer on all queries around Student Services Trained entirely by students to ensure Watson understands the ‘student voice’.Online access through the web and mobile devices for 50,000+ students.
Scale Expertise
Watson for Oncology is trained by the best doctors and can also read medical notes, MRIs and scientific research.
Results: Doctors from BumrungradInternational Hospital use Watson to bring the world’s best expertise to 1M+ patients in S.E. Asia.
Scale Expertise – Watson for Oncology
Scale Expertise – Visual Intelligence
Scale Expertise – Video Intelligence
Scale Expertise – Educating Children
Scale Expertise
Australia’s largest independent oil and gas producer leveraged IBM Watson to create a cognitive advisory service called “Lesson Learned” which pulls together decades of engineering data from numerous sources including testing, projects and messages and makes it accessible to a wide group of employees.

Medtronic and IBM took 600 past patient cases and applied cognitive analytics to the data from Medtronic insulin pumps and glucose monitors. Watson was able to predict hypoglycemia –extreme low blood sugar – up to three hours in advance of onset —early enough so a person with diabetes could take action to prevent a potentially dangerous health event.

• UnderArmour will use IBM’s Watson to serve as a Cognitive Coaching Assistant
• Using the UA Record App, users can compare health and fitness insights with more than 45M people in the database
• Insights will originate from three sources: UA Connected Fitness community, academic research and IBM Watson similarity analytics
• The combination of Watson’s learning and UA user community data has opportunity to offer unprecedented value
• New Watson powered capabilities will include behavioral and performance management, nutrition management and weather and environmental factors

Elemental Path, a Watson ecosystem partner, developed Cognitoy, a dinosaur toy, that answers its playmate’s questions, and even learns their sense of humor by listening to and adapting its personality to play differently with each child.
Results: Cognitoy is able to take on a unique personality that evolves over time based on the child’s interactions and helps her learn rhyming, spelling, vocabulary, mathematics and more.

Evolve Research and DiscoveryBaylor College of Medicine used Watson to help analyze 70,000 scientific articles identified from 23M candidate documents. In just a few weeks, the Baylor Knowledge Integration Toolkit (KnIT), powered by IBM Watson, accurately targeted seven proteins that modify p53, an important protein related to many cancers.
Results: This type of discovery has typically taken the entire life science industry seven years to accomplish before Watson.

Watson’s Core Strengths
2. Deep sensory capabilities -in language, vision and speech. Watson is unique in its custom visual learning capabilities.
3. Emotional reasoning.We are far ahead of competitors in an AI approach which has both emotional intelligence and intellectual intelligence. We have developed unique ways in which machines can interpret emotion, tone and personality
1. Our approach to client data. We have the only model that allows clients to build their own AI vs contribute their data to a central knowledge graph. We work with enterprises and organizations who need to keep their most critical information private and proprietary.
4. Leveraging the rest of IBM. IBM has unique assets for developers and organizations who want to extend their lead in the cognitive era. GBS and S&D are huge advantages as clients build specialized AI that is unique to clients and industries.

The Watson that competed on Jeopardy! in 2011comprised what is now a single API—Q&A—built on five underlying technologies.
Since then, Watson has grown to a family of 28 APIs.
By the end of 2016, there will be nearly 50 Watson APIs—with more added every year.
