Cognition Technologies, which focuses on Semantic natural language processing technology, was named by KMWorld as one of the top 100 Companies That Matter in Knowledge Management for 2008.
Says Cognition CEO Scott Jarus:
One of the biggest barriers to building a natural language understanding system is to build the semantic map and the dictionary with details of the syntactic behavior of words (i.e. how words behave within context). Cognition's team has spent more than 20 years building this capability into Cognition’s Semantic NLP for the English language ... and our technology is commercially available today!
Semantic search and NLP technologies seem to have arrived - they are generating a lot of buzz lately. In addition to mainstays Hakia and Powerset, there is a spate of new entries, including Cognition, BooRah and eeggi. We will be reviewing some of these new alternate search engines on this blog in the near future.
Congratulations, Scott and the Cognition team!
congratulations on the nomination!
