IP Australia to trial cognitive computing technology
IP Australia has partnered with IBM to engage the cognitive computing technology Watson, aimed at improving agency efficiencies and enhancing online service offerings for Australia’s innovators.
“Trialling the Watson tool launches IP Australia’s journey into the field of cognitive computing,” said Patricia Kelly, IP Australia director general.
Already in use in the medical research sector, finance and banking, international education and travel and hospitality services, IBM Watson can analyse a broad range of disparate data and provide responses with intelligent reason.
Watson works by consuming vast amounts of information to provide insights to people by answering questions. Watson learns from its interactions with people, creating a profile of the user based on stated, observed and inferred preferences and experiences.
This engagement is part of IP Australia’s commitment to deliver innovative approaches to assist IP rights holders and inventors.
