IBM Watson’s chief data scientist Romeo Kienzler is to visit Qatar this week to conduct a workshop on Watson, a question-answering platform that can “think like a human”.
Kienzler will be a guest of the Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI), a research institute at Hamad bin Khalifa University, which is jointly holding a new event called QCRI-IBM Data Science Connect.
Tomorrow, he will introduce a session on the Cognitive Internet of Things using Watson and will then run a hands-on workshop on cognitive IoT using Watson and ApacheSpark.
