The Most Advanced Commercially Available Semantic NLP
Cognition’s Semantic NLP, the Company’s patented linguistic meaning-based text processing technology, is able to simultaneously deliver significantly higher levels of precision and recall than is possible with currently used NLP and Search technologies.
Cognition’s technology employs a unique mix of linguistics and mathematical algorithms which has, in effect, taught the computer the meanings (or associated concepts) of nearly all the words and frequently used phrases within the common English language. It also has knowledge of the relations between words and phrases, especially paraphrase (a “finger” or a “digit”) and taxonomy (a “finger” is part of a “hand”, a “cow” is a “bovine” and is a “mammal”).
Unlike all of the popular text reading and search in use today which utilize mathematically-based pattern-matching technology (i.e. they search for a particular word pattern based upon the user query), Cognition’s Semantic NLP understands the meaning within the context of the text it is processing. Therefore, the end benefit delivered to Cognition’s clients is simultaneously more precise and relevant understanding of their customers’ actions and intent.
