Here is a recording of my recent keynotetalk on the power of Natural Language processing through Watson and my academic/PhD topic – Partridge – at York Doctoral Symposium.
0-11 minutes – history of mankind, invention and the acceleration of scientific progress (warming people to the idea that farming out your scientific reading to a computer is a much better idea than trying to read every paper written)

11-26 minutes – My personal academic work – scientific paper annotation and cognitive scientific research using NLP
</li>
<lidir="ltr">
26- 44 minutes – Watson – Jeopardy, MSK and Ecosystem
</li>
<lidir="ltr">
44 – 48 minutes Q&A on Watson and Partridge
</li>
Please don’t cringe too much at my technical explanation of Watson – especially those of you who know much more about WEA and the original DeepQA setup than I do! This was me after a few days of reading the original 2011 and 2012 papers and making copious notes!

(Equally please don’t cringe too much about my history of US Presidents @ 37:30- I got Roosevelt and Reagan mixed up in my head!)
