IBM Watson20A 58-year-old woman presented to her primary care physician after several days of dizziness, anorexia, dry mouth, increased thirst, and frequent urination. She had also had a fever and reported that food would get stuck when she was swallowing. She reported no pain in her abdomen, back, or flank and no cough, shortness of breath, diarrhea, or dysuria. Her family history included oral and bladder cancer in her mother, Graves' disease in two sisters, hemochromatosis in one sister, and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in one sister. Her history was notable for cutaneous lupus, hyperlipidemia, osteoporosis, frequent urinary tract infections, three uncomplicated cesarean sections, a left oophorectomy for a benign cyst, and primary hypothyroidism, which had been diagnosed a year earlier. Her medications were levothyroxine, hydroxychloroquine, pravastatin, and alendronate. A urine dipstick was positive for leukocyte esterase and nitrites. The patient was given a prescription for ciprofloxacin for a urinary tract infection and was advised to drink plenty of fluids. On a follow-up visit with her physician 3 days later, her fever had resolved, but she reported continued weakness and dizziness despite drinking a lot of fluids. She felt better when lying down. Her supine blood pressure was 120/80 mm Hg, and her pulse was 88 beats per minute; on standing, her systolic blood pressure was 84 mm Hg, and her pulse was 92 beats per minute. A urine specimen obtained at her initial presentation had been cultured and grew more than 100,000 colonies of Escherichia coli, which is sensitive to ciprofloxacin.

IBM Watson Personality Insights
Enables deeper understanding of people's personality characteristics, needs, and values to help engage users on their own termsThe IBM Watson Personality Insights service uses linguistic analytics to infer cognitive and social characteristics, including Big Five, Values, and Needs, from communications that the user makes available, such as email, text messages, tweets, forum posts, and more. By deriving cognitive and social preferences, the service helps users to understand, connect to, and communicate with other people on a more personalized level.

IBM WatsonConcept InsightsExplores information based on the concepts behind your input, rather than limiting investigation to findings based on traditional text matchingThe Concept Insights service maps user-input words to the underlying concepts of those words based on training on English Wikipedia data. Doing so can broaden the user's investigation beyond the actual words used in an inquiry. Two types of associations are identified: explicit links when an input document directly mentions a concept, and implicit links which connect the input documents to relevant concepts that are not directly mentioned in them. Users of this service can also search for documents that are relevant to a concept or collection of concepts by exploring the explicit and implicit links.

IBM Watson31Natural Language ClassifierInterpret natural language and classify it with confidenceThe IBM Watson Natural Language Classifier service enables developers without a background in machine learning or statistical algorithms to create machine-learning, natural language interfaces for their applications. The service interprets input text (questions or other) and returns a corresponding classification with associated confidence levels. The return value can then be used to trigger a corresponding action, such as redirecting the request or answering the question.
