DETAILS

With Artificial Intelligence, we have more power at our fingertips than entire generations that came before us. Now, Java developers can rapidly consume high-level finished services that accelerate development of AI solutions. Innovations in Computer Vision & Text Analytics now bring powerful AI tools & services to every developer.

In this session, Ruth Yakubu will give a hands-on demo on how to use Java, Computer Vision & Text Analysis to automate a Lost/Found system. We will use a scenario where an item is found & a picture is taken of it & stored. Next, we will explore how Computer Vision returns metadata about visual content found in an image (e.g. tagging, descriptions, colors, adult/racy restrictions etc). Next, we will explore a scenario where the owner submits a Lost/Found report, & Text Analysis automatically identifies the language, sentiment, & key phrases to search if the item is found.

Ruth Yakubu is a Sr. Cloud Developer Advocate at MICROSOFT; & Founder of PoshBeauty.com. She specializes in Advanced Analytics, Data platforms, Artificial intelligence (AI), Cloud & Java. She has worked for great companies like UNISYS, ACCENTURE & DIRECTV over the years where she gained a lot of experience with software architectural designing, programming & big data analytics.
