CAMBRIDGE, England and BOSTON, Dec. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/
-- Natural Language Processing (NLP) text analytics provider,
Linguamatics, today announced that the company has extended its
position as a leading provider of NLP text-mining solutions for
healthcare and the life sciences with the introduction of multiple
innovations in 2017.
New capabilities include custom search interfaces using I2E web
portals, providing much larger, wide-ranging user communities with
web access to the benefits of deep NLP capabilities. Programmatic
use of I2E is enhanced by I2E AMP, which delivers high-throughput,
fault tolerant workflow management for real-time document
processing. AMP is deployed at multiple customer sites in a variety
of workflows, including safety and regulatory affairs.
"Over the last year, more customers have taken advantage of the
capabilities of I2E with AMP for ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load)
use cases," said Linguamatics Chief Business Development Officer
Phil Hastings. "It's exciting to see
the numerous ways customers are benefitting from the ability to
transform their unstructured data to a structured format that can
be loaded into data warehouses or data lakes, or consumed by
downstream applications for broader access and decision
support."
This year, Linguamatics released two major updates to the I2E
platform, adding features that included enhanced results management
options, and advances in core capabilities including spelling and
OCR correction. In addition, Linguamatics launched its Community
site for Linguamatics I2E customers and partners - including a new
Developer site for Community members with programming backgrounds
who want to learn more about I2E's technical features and network
with other users to share best practices.
Over the past year, Linguamatics customers have expanded their
use of I2E to mine EHR data for predictive risk models and quality
measurement, and for Real World Evidence analysis of outcomes and
patient characteristics. Based on the success of these efforts,
Frost and Sullivan recognized Linguamatics with an excellence in
best practices award for "Big Data Text Analytics for
Healthcare".
At the 2017 Linguamatics Text Mining Summits, customers shared
details about the innovative ways they are leveraging I2E. Client
representatives from AstraZeneca, Cancer Research UK, Cell
Signaling Technology, Huntsman Cancer Institute, Kaiser Permanente,
Mundipharma, Penn Medicine, Pfizer, Roche and Sanofi discussed
specific I2E use cases, from early drug discovery to clinical
applications. Speakers also shared how they've successfully
escalated their use of artificial intelligence machine-learning
technologies, thanks to I2E's ability to normalize unstructured
data to enhance predictive models.
"Linguamatics has made outstanding progress this year in
providing the benefits of text mining to a wider audience," said
Linguamatics Chief Technology Officer, David Milward. "Our new web portal framework is
part of an ongoing strategy to broaden access to powerful NLP
capabilities. The development of AMP for highly scalable and
fault-tolerant document processing, along with improved SDKs,
backed up by the launch of our Community and Developer sites, is
increasing the programmatic use of I2E, enabling NLP to underpin
multiple applications in enterprise data analysis such as quality
checking, extraction of meta-data and detailed relationship
extraction."
