Semantic intelligence management
Italian firm Expert System has released Cogito SIMS (semantic intelligent management system). Cogito is said to streamline the development of applications to understand, discover and classify information contained in unstructured text, as well as to review, normalize and automatically enhance metadata--through the extraction of named entities, relations and event-related data trapped in text.
Expert System has also released the Cogito SIMS software development kit, which is targeted at OEM customers and system integrators. The company claims it's simple to use and reports it includes a declarative language and intuitive user interface to enable programmers who do not possess extensive computational or linguistic experience to develop advanced search, categorization and text analysis applications.
