Applied Semantics, provider of tools for information management and retrieval, has launched Auto-Categorizer 1.1, which featuring a taxonomy administration tool to enhance its content categorization application.
This update provides users the ability to import, create and edit sets of categories within a variety of industry-standard and user-defined taxonomies, allowing enterprises to build and maintain an information hierarchy that best mirrors the knowledge hidden in their data repositories.
Typically, information managers or taxonomists must gather dozens, sometimes hundreds, of documents related to a specific category in order to attach meanings and associations to that category when using other automatic
categorization technologies.
Using an ontology-based CIRCA technology, the Taxonomy Administrator in Auto-Categorizer 1.1 maps concepts in a simple, direct manner without requiring the development of extensive training sets to define each of the categories.
"From the publishing to the financial services industries, today's enterprises are challenged with building and maintaining taxonomies that
encompass highly specialized, industry- and company-specific terminologies" said Steve Bernstein, General Manager of Applied Semantics' Enterprise Solutions Division.
"Auto-Categorizer 1.1 is the only solution that allows them to quickly and efficiently set up taxonomies related to their specific business objectives, resulting in a sophisticated content categorization solution that directly meets their industry specifications without labor-intensive training sets."
Users of the technology can directly map their custom terminologies to its two gigabyte ontology, a continuously maintained and updated knowledge base containing millions of concepts and relationship links through the Auto-Categorizer tool.
