AI-102: Designing and Implementing a Microsoft Azure AI Solution
In this course, you will learn about Azure’s artificial intelligence (AI) solutions: Azure Cognitive Services, Azure Cognitive Search, and Microsoft Bot Framework. There are plenty of “hands on” activities, i.e., building a customer service bot that leverages a variety of pre-built Azure cognitive services including language comprehension technology. The course will use C # or Python as the programming languages. The course covers a wide range of different ready-made machine learning models used in the exercises.
Azure cloud architects, as well as AI designers and AI coders, Software engineers concerned with building, managing, and deploying AI solutions. The course is straightforward and thought-provoking, so that even if the programmer does not grasp every concept, the programmer will get the idea of what is possible, and the time involved when developing utilizing ready-made solutions in Azure.
This course prepares you for the certification exam AI-102: Designing and Implementing a Microsoft Azure AI Solution to obtain the Azure AI Engineer Associate Certificate.
Know the basics of Azure and be able to read C # or Python code.
Module 1: Introduction to AI on Azure
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly at the core of modern apps and services. In this module, you’ll learn about some common AI capabilities that you can leverage in your apps, and how those capabilities are implemented in Microsoft Azure. You’ll also learn about some considerations for designing and implementing AI solutions responsibly.
Lessons
- Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
- Artificial Intelligence in Azure
Module 2: Developing AI Apps with Cognitive Services
Cognitive Services are the core building blocks for integrating AI capabilities into your apps. In this module, you’ll learn how to provision, secure, monitor, and deploy cognitive services.
Lessons
- Getting Started with Cognitive Services
- Using Cognitive Services for Enterprise Applications
Module 3: Getting Started with Natural Language Processing
Natural Language processing (NLP) is a branch of artificial intelligence that deals with extracting insights from written or spoken language. In this module, you’ll learn how to use cognitive services to analyze and translate text.
Lessons
- Analyzing Text
- Translating Text
Module 4: Building Speech-Enabled Applications
Many modern apps and services accept spoken input and can respond by synthesizing text. In this module, you’ll continue your exploration of natural language processing capabilities by learning how to build speech-enabled applications.
Lessons
- Speech Recognition and Synthesis
- Speech Translation
Module 5: Creating Language Understanding Solutions
To build an application that can intelligently understand and respond to natural language input, you must define and train a model for language understanding. In this module, you’ll learn how to use the Language Understanding service to create an app that can identify user intent from natural language input.
Lessons
- Creating a Language Understanding App
- Publishing and Using a Language Understanding App
- Using Language Understanding with Speech
Module 6: Building a QnA Solution
One of the most common kinds of interaction between users and AI software agents is for users to submit questions in natural language, and for the AI agent to respond intelligently with an appropriate answer. In this module, you’ll explore how the QnA Maker service enables the development of this kind of solution.
Lessons
- Creating a QnA Knowledge Base
- Publishing and Using a QnA Knowledge Base
Module 7: Conversational AI and the Azure Bot Service
Bots are the basis for an increasingly common kind of AI application in which users engage in conversations with AI agents, often as they would with a human agent. In this module, you’ll explore the Microsoft Bot Framework and the Azure Bot Service, which together provide a platform for creating and delivering conversational experiences.
Lessons
- Bot Basics
- Implementing a Conversational Bot
Module 8: Getting Started with Computer Vision
Computer vision is an area of artificial intelligence in which software applications interpret visual input from images or video. In this module, you’ll start your exploration of computer vision by learning how to use cognitive services to analyze images and video.
Lessons
- Analyzing Images
- Analyzing Videos
Module 9: Developing Custom Vision Solutions
While there are many scenarios where pre-defined general computer vision capabilities can be useful, sometimes you need to train a custom model with your own visual data. In this module, you’ll explore the Custom Vision service, and how to use it to create custom image classification and object detection models.
Lessons
- Image Classification
- Object Detection
Module 10: Detecting, Analyzing, and Recognizing Faces
Facial detection, analysis, and recognition are common computer vision scenarios. In this module, you’ll explore the user of cognitive services to identify human faces.
Lessons
- Detecting Faces with the Computer Vision Service
- Using the Face Service
Module 11: Reading Text in Images and Documents
Optical character recognition (OCR) is another common computer vision scenario, in which software extracts text from images or documents. In this module, you’ll explore cognitive services that can be used to detect and read text in images, documents, and forms.
Lessons
- Reading text with the Computer Vision Service
- Extracting Information from Forms with the Form Recognizer service
Module 12: Creating a Knowledge Mining Solution
Ultimately, many AI scenarios involve intelligently searching for information based on user queries. AI-powered knowledge mining is an increasingly important way to build intelligent search solutions that use AI to extract insights from large repositories of digital data and enable users to find and analyze those insights.
Lessons
- Implementing an Intelligent Search Solution
- Developing Custom Skills for an Enrichment Pipeline
- Creating a Knowledge Store
