Onotext Media & Publishing Releases "Semantic Recommendations" as part of the complete solution.
Our unique solution scales to handle hundreds of queries per second while large database updates occur simultaneously – all within a high availability replication cluster. - Borislav Popov, GM Ontotext Media & Publishing
Washington DC (PRWEB) August 27, 2014
Ontotext Media & Publishing, a division of Ontotext headquartered in Sofia, Bulgaria with offices in London and Washington, DC recently expanded its solution to enable publishers to automatically deliver personalized recommendations based on semantic models, user behavior, profiles and content based information.
For years, Ontotext Media & Publishing has provided solutions that help publishers enrich content using a blend of text mining, named entity recognition, content categorization, concept extraction and more. These solutions include data management for billions of statements, dynamically assembled webpages and content curation, providing authors with unprecedented 'fine-grained' understanding of their content.
In their latest release, Ontotext Media & Publishing now offers Semantic Recommendations delivering highly targeted messages, related articles and advertisements based on contextual understanding. “Semantic Recommendations was designed to serve the needs of media and publishing companies interested in creating a world class user experience replete with personalized recommendations driven from enriched data and user behavior,” reports Borislav Popov, General Manager of Ontotext Media & Publishing. “But this solution works for any company challenged by large amounts of unstructured data. Organizations are realizing the value of blending concept extraction with classification and semantic technology to deliver a unique user experience. This solution combines past behavior with enriched content to deliver real time recommendations. It is unique since it scales to handle hundreds of queries per second while large database updates occur simultaneously – all within a high availability replication cluster proven to work in the most demanding media and publishing environments. Scientific and educational publishers can benefit from this as well.”
The complete solution includes a content layer, services layer and UI layer. The services layer has five major modules: Search & Analytics, Semantic Enrichment, Data Management, Continuous Adaptation and the newest set of services for Semantic Recommendations. Search & Analytics includes all types of search (semantic, faceted, full-text, hybrid) with analysis and trending. Semantic Enrichment includes services for text mining, named entity recognition and the disambiguation of entities. Data Management has tools for ingestion, normalization, annotation and curation. Continuous Adaptation allows users to dynamically enrich content, retrain the text mining algorithms, and manage the text-mining pipeline – all while they monitor quality assurance. Now this suite has been extended to include Semantic Recommendations.
