Yes many others - think NLP, multi-lingual, social media, speech, vision, etc. We'll start with a small set and keep expanding. I don't know about Clojure, I would ask that question on their forum: https://developer.ibm

Not completely. The first set of APIs won't let you provide your own content - it will let you play with the Q&A API (and also do a lot of other fun things not directly related Q&A). The instance you will get access to through

1. Right now data comes from our customers (not shared) or public sources (shared). Watson does not decide on its own what is shared or not. 2. Watson can learn from feedback (i.e., a user grading the quality of an answer).

We do have many actual projects with several healthcare providers. We have functioning systems (see one here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lGJ0h_jAp8 ) and we are starting to deploy them. But the deployments are made very

The soon to come Watson platform will also come with a set of curated content. So it will be a mix of the content you provide and existing (free and paid) content.

Watson APIs will be accessible - without the need for an application - as part of BlueMix ( https://ace.ng.bluemix.net/ - the IBM PaaS/Heroku) in a couple of weeks. Stay posted!

Right now you need to apply here: http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/ibmwatson/form_ecosys... but many Watson APIs will be available on BlueMix very very shortly (think weeks not months).

Does anybody know if this is true for other machine learning techniques?

Yes, the system works in a way similar to the Jeopardy Watson. It collects evidences, and weighs them based on their date and possibly source quality. So new results will displace older results at some point.

I agree that adoption is a challenge but the tech is also really challenging. Getting a system to a level of accuracy that gives doctors enough confidence to use it is no small task. A "second opinion" service would have a lot of

The techniques of today are actually much more elaborate than decision trees. The key is gathering evidence automatically (i.e., learning) from medical literature - that requires parsing the text through ML techniques that have been invente

The article is scarce in details but this is a real product with real applications. The software uses NLP and ML techniques to sift through large amount of scientific documents, i.e., patents or publications, and extracts relevant entities,
