IBM opens Jeopardy-winning Watson to developers with a self-service cloud

IBM today said it will open Watson to more software developers with an API (application programming interface) developer toolkit and educational materials as part of a self-service cloud platform. Developers and software vendors can build applications that tie into a version of Watson hosted in the cloud, letting apps answer nearly any question a customer might ask.The move comes more than two-and-a-half years after the artificial intelligence system destroyed some genius humans in a friendly game of Jeopardy. Watson was available to customers before today,Find here listings of magnetic analyzer with specifications, Wholesale Quantum Resonance Magnetic Analyzer QMA201magnetic analyzer suppliers, magnetic analyzer traders and magnetic analyzer wholesalers.Our Quantum health Analyzer is based on quantum analyzer proprietary Technology that collects the magnetic field of human cells for scientific analysis. being used to evaluate data on cancer treatments for example. But now IBM is expanding Watson's money-making capabilities, laying the groundwork for bringing it to more industries.The "IBM Watson Developers Cloud" is "a cloud-hosted marketplace where application providers of all sizes and industries will be able to tap into resources for developing Watson-powered apps," Big Blue said.Companies that build Watson-powered applications will take advantage of the system's data-crunching ability, using either their own data sets or data from the "IBM Watson Content Store, featuring third-party content that offers data-rich resources that can fuel Watson’s ever expanding knowledge." One data source available right off the bat comes from Healthline, providing a "comprehensive, contextually relevant health reference library."The Watson cloud isn't yet an open service that anyone can access. Interested parties will have to submit an idea for using Watson. IBM said it is "gradually expanding" access and "experimenting with different ways to give access to ISVs that want to build a Powered by Watson application." 

Ultimately, the plan is to make Watson available to anyone without such barriers, IBM Watson CTO Rob High told Ars. More than 500 IBM consultants are on hand to help customers through the development process, but IBM wants to make it intuitive enough that users will be able to handle everything on their own.The feedback it gets from early customers will help IBM "make it as simple and straightforward and self-service as possible," High said. There's no word on timing of general availability, but High said, "we'll open it up eventually.tyre changer machine,manual tyre changer,tire changers for sale,tire machines for sale,coats tire changer,coats motorcycle tire changer,car tire changer, truck tire changer. The restrictions you see today are because we want to make sure the experience we develop has been vetted and validated."IBM told Ars that the developer cloud itself is free. However, we assume that's just for test and development. Hosting a finished application on IBM's cloud will likely cost some money, but how much hasn't been announced.Part of the process of creating a Watson-fueled application is teaching Watson what it needs to know about your industry and customers. Watson will "ingest" information such as "articles and product literature and blogs," and learn the unique linguistics of each field, High said. For example, the abbreviation "PT" means "point" in finance but "patient" in health care. Customers have to feed information to Watson so it can learn the difference.With a finished application, questions from users result in an API call being made to Watson, which produces an answer along with its confidence level in the answer and links to supporting evidence. Customers who need help with app development can take advantage of an IBM collaboration with Elance,quantum magnetic analyzer suppliers is the latest healthcare equipment that can detect diseases which is being widely used in different medicine, bioinformatics. an online marketplace for hiring freelancers.The general motion of a roller and the cage in a beilin-bearing is modeled as a function of frictional behavior in the bearing and cage clearances. "Elance plans to create clouds where app providers can tap into highly skilled freelancers who are available on-demand to build Watson-enabled apps and have completed an IBM certification program," IBM said.
