Cognitive Computing

Cognitive Computing refers to the simulation of human thought processes through a computerized model. This involves self-learning systems that use techniques such as data mining, pattern recognition, and natural language processing to imitate the functioning of the human brain. The ultimate goal of cognitive computing is to create automated IT systems capable of independently solving problems without human intervention. Machine learning algorithms are used by cognitive computing systems to continuously acquire knowledge from the data fed into them. The systems refine their approach to pattern recognition and data processing to become capable of anticipating new problems and generating possible solutions.
