Cognition Technologies Parses Its Way to a Better Understanding of Language, at Altsearchengines (Nov 1)
Cognition is doing a lot of work on semantic mapping to make natural language processing effective. This posting at Altsearchengines talks about a new syntactic parser.
"Cognition Technologies has recently added an advanced syntactic parser module to its language-understanding technology. “What does that mean?”, you ask? It means that Cognition can now “parse”, or break down, the component parts of sentences to deliver an even more accurate and complete understanding of the content. Since words often have more than one meaning, the ability to parse sentences enhances the technology’s ability to understand the context and sentence structure of the material being analyzed."
