Artificial Intelligence By Example

By: Denis Rothman

Overview of this book

Artificial intelligence has the potential to replicate humans in every field. Artificial Intelligence By Example serves as a starting point for you to understand how AI is built, with the help of intriguing examples and case studies. Artificial Intelligence By Example will make you an adaptive thinker and help you apply concepts to real-life scenarios. Using some of the most interesting AI examples, right from a simple chess engine to a cognitive chatbot, you will learn how to tackle the machine you are competing with. You will study some of the most advanced machine learning models, understand how to apply AI to blockchain and IoT, and develop emotional quotient in chatbots using neural networks. You will move on to designing AI solutions in a simple manner rather than get confused by complex architectures and techniques. This comprehensive guide will be a starter kit for you to develop AI applications on your own.

Cognitive NLP Chatbots

IBM Watson on IBM Cloud provides a set of tools to build a cognitive NLP chatbot. IBM proposes a well-thought process to design a chatbot. Good architecture remains the key to a chatbot's success.

To make a chatbot meet user demands, IBM Watson has many services libraries (speech to text, text to speech, and much more).

The whole process can be customized with one's programs. This makes IBM Cloud an excellent place to start creating chatbots. The TextBlob project offers another set of NLP modules that provide some interesting ways of improving a chatbot.

This chapter starts by setting up an IBM Watson chatbot following IBM's standard procedure and shows how to use IBM Watson to add one's cognitive chatbot functions. A cognitive service in Python will be described to solve a case study. The problem to address is that of a tourist on a...
