Expert System goes big with new Cogito release

Expert System has unveiled the latest version of its Cogito semantic technology platform, which, the company reports, provides better support management of big data through its text analytics and natural language processing capabilities.

The company emphasizes the following in the new Cogito release:

• full integration with big data infrastructures, including Hadoop and analytical database systems (ADBMS);

• automatic sentiment analysis at the document level for phrases and entities;
• 20 percent faster analysis of data; and
• semantic tagging added to the integration with Microsoft SharePoint and FAST, including a standard set of taxonomies for different domains.
