Ontologies and Semantic Technology
Webnodes has released a new version of their .Net semantic content management system. This latest release features semantic e-commerce, several new mobile features, and support for ASP.Net MVC.
Natural Language Processing Only Goes So Far
The sirens call of natural language processing has been issued again. In this study, the researchers compared the use for free text searches to administrative codes to see which would give better indication of safety based on 20 indicators. The authors rightly suggest that instead of relying only on the notoriously poor check boxes used with discharge orders that the hand written notes form the discharge nurse or physician might be much more instructive.
Semantic Search Technology Used by New Start-up
Big data startup, PureDiscovery, is offering an answer to outdated enterprise search technology. Brainspace can learn just about everything about how pieces of content are related to one another. That means users will become less dependent on searching for information because the platform will feed them what they want to know as they interact with other content.
Enhanced Semantic Technology
Sprylogics International has announced the leveraging and enhancement on their existing patent pending technology base to build mobile search solutions that interpret what people are saying online and on their mobile phones.
Reading Between the Lines
Whether you are merely an individual wondering what your friends and colleagues are saying about you or a major retailer about to launch a new customer retention program, knowing what the word on the street is and more importantly, how to manipulate it is very important.
The Road to Semantic Technology
Do you long for the time when we can chat with our gadgets like the crew of the USS Enterprise did with its computer on Star Trek? I’m not sure I am ready for that level of intimacy or dependency on a computer, or like Dave Bowman and Frank Poole do in 2001 before HAL went violently bonkers?
The Grammar Slaughter
Texting may be faster, more efficient and pretty much gets the job done. But the slippery slope of bad grammar we have taken from emails to texting has taken away all quality of writing and content. Using the smallest number of letters to get your message across does not equal writing. I cringe every time I get the text that simply says “k”. Because apparently typing an “o” in front of it is just too much to ask.
TEMIS Chosen by Gannett
TEMIS was chosen by Gannett for its semantic content enrichment solution better known as Luxid. Their semantic tagging and linking software as a tagging engine assists in the categorization of news articles and consistent indexing of content against a common taxonomy.
It’s All Semantic
Seamless integration of knowledge and data is a requirement for modern healthcare systems. Being able to respond quickly to a patient’s needs is priority. With various information systems being utilized to streamline and automate patient care processes, semantic technology is a need of its own.
