Overview of this book

IBM Watson provides fast, intelligent insight in ways that the human brain simply can't match. Through eight varied projects, this book will help you explore the computing and analytical capabilities of IBM Watson. The book begins by refreshing your knowledge of IBM Watson's basic data preparation capabilities, such as adding and exploring data to prepare it for being applied to models. The projects covered in this book can be developed for different industries, including banking, healthcare, media, and security. These projects will enable you to develop an AI mindset and guide you in developing smart data-driven projects, including automating supply chains, analyzing sentiment in social media datasets, and developing personalized recommendations. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to develop solutions for process automation, and you'll be able to make better data-driven decisions to deliver an excellent customer experience.

Reviewing the results

Earlier in this chapter, we touched on Watson Analytics Collections. We showed how to save our visualization as an asset for later use. You can save assets similarly from Explore, Predict, and Assemble.

But what is Assemble? We haven't covered it yet. You use the Assemble capability in Watson Analytics to convey the analysis and insights discovered in Predict and Explore. You can use Assemble to assemble Watson assets, as well as external files (such as images), into Watson interactive views. Views can be either dashboards or stories and can be easily shared with others.

Dashboards display a particular view while stories deal with time or state; in other words, you would expect a story to depict a change over a period of time, or a before-and-after state of something. The best way to learn is to do, so in the next section, we will create a dashboard...
