This section looked at Azure Machine Learning. In the next section, we will look at Azure Cognitive Services.

Azure Cognitive Services

Azure Cognitive Services is a cloud-based pre-built AI and is a fully managed Microsoft platform; it simplifies and speeds up the creation and deployment of AI solutions.

Azure Cognitive Services provides pre-built ML models that allow developers to enable speech, hearing, understanding, and reasoning in their apps while also bringing in live data. This differs from Azure ML, which is based on requiring you to create models trained on your data.

These pre-built models can be accessed by developers via the Cognitive Services API; this functionality can be added with some lines of code. This is a developer skillset and in contrast to the Azure ML service, you do not require data science or specific ML or language/framework knowledge to get value from these services; think of this as an ML-as-a-Service approach.

Azure Cognitive Services is comprised of the following:

Vision: This service provides identification and recognition capabilities for analyzing pictures, video, and other visual content.

Speech: This service provides text-to-speech and speech-to-text conversion, language translation, and speaker recognition and verification.

Language: This service provides pre-built scripts for processing natural language, key phrase extraction, sentiment analysis, and user recognition.

Decision: This service provides personal recommendations, content moderation, and abnormality detection.
