Microsoft Cognitive Services

Microsoft Cognitive Services are collection of machine learning algorithm which helps in solving various problems in the field of artificial intelligence, like language processing, machine learning search, computer vision etc. Basically Cognitive Services are collection of APIs, SDKs and services designed for developers. These services can make the applications more intelligent and more interactive. The aim of these services is to supply interesting and well-off computing experience. The available APIs of Microsoft Cognitive Services are Language API, Vision API, Speech API, Knowledge API, etc. Each API performs different functions such as language API identifies and discovers the requirements of the user, vision API examines the images and videos for useful information, speech API helps in identifying the speaker and knowledge API captures research from scientific account. By using these APIs developers can add the intelligent features like understanding face detection, speech detection, vision detection and recognition, emotion detection and video detection. The characteristics which distinguish Microsoft Cognitive Services from other services are multiple face tracking in less time, more accuracy in face recognition, presence of emotions with their types and percentages, better APIs. Microsoft Cognitive Service APIs are used in various fields like enhancing the security, expressing farcical moments, engaging customers via chat, etc.
