STM publisher Springer Science+Business Media and US-based text analytics solutions provider TEMIS have agreed on a broad extension of their strategic collaboration on semantic enrichment and linking of content for the SpringerLink platform. SpringerLink claims to be one of the world's largest distribution platforms for scientific eBooks and eJournals.
Springer and TEMIS have a long and successful track-record of joint work aimed at facilitating information access on the SpringerLink portal by offering intuitive navigational tools to customers searching for the scientific content most relevant to their topics of interest. At the core of this partnership, TEMIS's flagship Luxid Content Enrichment Platform leverages a sophisticated combination of linguistic and statistical methods to calculate semantic relatedness among the millions of publications accessible on SpringerLink. This enables the automatic recommendation for each available article or book chapter of a selection of highly-relevant, semantically-related documents, without requiring specific editorial efforts.
The goal of the recent extension of the Springer-TEMIS partnership is to generalise this approach to link not only documents to each other, but also to concepts originating from structured domain-specific vocabularies and to key topics derived from the documents' content.
