Introduction to Semantic Computing
- 2. “Liberate your Data” 2 Who is Semantic Software? A Software R&D Company Unlisted Australian Public Company Owners of a Comprehensive Patent Portfolio 2001 to present Developed a Cognitive Computing Solution Based on Semantic Computing Multiple Products within an Integrated Platform Training Division Called the Semantic Academy
- 3. “Liberate your Data” 3 x The Problem The World is Awash with Data Information ‘needles’ are lost within the Data ‘Haystack’ Current Software Solutions are Inadequate Not enough Data Analysts Available Data Lake, Data Tsunami and Big Data
- 4. “Liberate your Data” 4 The Solution to Big Data is Cognitive Computing. Computers doing the heavy lifting. Inferencing Deep Learning Machine Learning Natural Language Processing And many more. But most importantly… Semantic Computing Cognitive Computing is… NOT a technique NOT a technology Cognitive Computing is… A generic term A mix of Artificial Intelligence techniques and technologies including: Cognitive Computing is…
- 5. “Liberate your Data” 5 Not All Artificial Intelligence Techniques are Equal “We’re just beginning a phasewhere knowing just how to get the new cognitive tooling to take care of the heavy lifting that lays the foundation for successful decisions will become a new valued (human) competence in and of itself” . A Computer is Useful when it follows instructions A Program – programmable computing An Algorithm – robotics, machine learning, pattern recognition A Computer is Cognitive when it becomes aware of something, or a probability of something. A Computer is Intelligent when it reacts to knowing something. http://www.cognitivecomputingconsortium.com/author/hadleyreynolds/ “I have a dream for the Web (in which computers) become capable of analyzing all the data on the Web – the content, links, and transactions between people and computers. A "Semantic Web", which makes this possible, has yet to emerge, but when it does, the day-to-day mechanisms of trade, bureaucracy and our daily lives will be handled by machines talking to machines.” Professor Sir Tim Berners-Lee, 1999, Inventor of the World Wide Web (In 1989)
- 6. “Liberate your Data” 6 Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Cognitive Computing IBM has been issued patents in, and been researching AI since 1956 (60 years) Google has spent $Billions buying Patents and AI companies since 2010 (6 years) Artificial Intelligence techniques do not guarantee Artificial Intelligence Only IBM and ourselves have a comprehensive Semantic Computing platform “The other major software companies are not doing Cognitive Computing” – IBM, 2014 “You can’t effectively analyse Big Data without knowledge of context” – IBM, 2016 Cognitive Computing Cognitive Computing needs all of the above, especially Semantic Computing Artificial Intelligence, but only if a Computer does/creates something, independent of humans Semantic Computing Reasoning & Inferencing Deep Learning Machine Learning & Pattern Recognition Semantic Computing Probability Reasoning & Inferencing Natural Language Processing Natural Language Processing Deep Learning
- 7. “Liberate your Data” 7 Our Solution Only IBM can match this, but with difficulties. We have attracted the attention of: 1. Software Vendors 2. Government Agencies 3. University Researchers 4. Amazon Web Services Make it simple!
