This topic came to our attention from PR Newswire in their article, “Announcing ProcureSight for Better, Faster Government Procurement.” Powered by natural language and machine learning…
Read MoreTaxonomy, Thesaurus, or Ontology? – Clearing the Confusion, Part Two
In this part of our explanation of taxonomies, thesauri, and ontologies, we will refer to them collectively as “structured vocabularies.” They are also referred to as Knowledge Organization Systems (KOS). For a field which tries to contain and streamline language we certainly have a lot of variations in the naming! Access Innovations builds structured vocabularies…
Read MoreLanguage Bias and AI in Global Communication
For individuals who use a second or additional language, digital communication increasingly depends on artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as translation systems, writing assistants and speech recognition software. These technologies have expanded access to information and enabled communication across geographic and linguistic boundaries.
