How is Watson cognitive technology being taught today in universities? Here is an example of how it is described in a curriculum at Columbia:
" ... IBM Watson is ushering in a new era of computing, cognitive systems. Based on natural language processing, generate hypothesis, algorithmically test possible responses, navigate Big Data, deliver evidence based insights, and learn through iterations and outcomes, this new class of computing behaves more like the world’s most sophisticated computer—the human brain. Since its historic debut on Jeopardy!, IBM Watson has been put to work in healthcare and financial services helping to transform these industries.
This course covers background concepts for working with IBM Watson and semantic technology in general, highlighting the current research problems and describing existing solutions. Students will gain an appreciation for what it’s like to work in one of the most advanced software research environments in the world. They will have the opportunity of learning from the developers of IBM Watson, providing their own insights, ideas and solutions to problems.....
