The Microsoft Cognitive Services APIs allow developers to embed AI in their applications to enable those apps to see, speak, understand, and interpret the needs of users. In this course, get started with Microsoft Cognitive Services, and discover how to work with the Vision, Speech, and Language APIs. Learn how the Vision API can recognize the details of a submitted image, how to add the necessary code to target the speech-to-text functionality of the Speech API, how to write code specific to the Bing Spell Check API—which helps users type with greater accuracy—and more. Upon completing this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge you need to leverage intelligent algorithms that can add value to your apps.

Topics include:

  • Exploring the possibilities of the Vision API
  • Submitting an image to the Vision API for processing
  • Asking the Vision API to recognize faces
  • Working with the Speech API
  • Writing speech-to-text code
  • Working with the Language API
  • Getting languages for translation
  • Language Understanding (LUIS) concepts
