Scope e-Knowledge Center (Scope), a leading provider of knowledge services and a Quatrro Global Services company, has announced the release of an enhanced version of its content enrichment solution, SemantiCzTM. Advanced text mining and ontology based semantic tagging are some of the key features of the enhanced version that help to generate relationships with precise, subject-specific contextual accuracy.
While retaining all the capabilities of the previous version, SemantiCz 2.0 has been enhanced to:
• Manage multiple versions of domain specific ontologies and vocabularies in various languages.
• Extract relationships from the content, specifically predicates, using advanced text mining algorithms thereby providing a high level of accuracy.
• Integrate with external platforms like MarkLogic, to ensure that the enriched information plugs in seamlessly with the client's ecosystem.
• SemantiCz provides a simple workflow for the use of ontologies in enrichment.
Use of ontologies in semantic enrichment ensures better enrichment of domain-intensive content. Scope's key USP is the deployment of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) who are experienced in curating the triples extracted by the platform. SemantiCz enables users to handle a wide range of subject domains based on its proprietary engine and Scope's vast experience in building taxonomies in many scholarly and professional domains.
SemantiCz uses the REST Web protocol to ensure integration with third-party platforms such as MarkLogic. The "triples" can be retrieved from applications like MarkLogic and visualized in a browser, for further drill down and filtering of information.
On the new release of SemantiCz, Tram Venkatraman, President of Scope, commented, "We are very happy to release the enhanced version of SemantiCz. There is a growing enthusiasm from customers about compliance to semantic web standards like RDF, OWL and the benefits of subject expert curation. Scope's subject matter experts lend the needed accuracy that may be often compromised by fully automatic semantic engines using natural language processing (NLP) software."
Scope's Chief Operating Officer, M. A. Eswaran added, "Publishers and information providers can leverage SemantiCz to enable cross domain (faceted) search and navigation and accurate precision and recall related content recommendation in compliance with semantic web standards like RDF, OWL and so on."
