ClearForest Modeler - Putting the Power of Advanced Text Analytics in the Hands of the Business User.WALTHAM, Mass. -- ClearForest, a leading provider of text analytics solutions, today announced ClearForest Modeler, a tool that enables business users to create text extraction solutions customized for the needs of individual companies, specific industries, and real-world business problems.

The result - new and powerful insights into hidden relationships, dramatically improved abilities to evaluate and react to events, and the discovery of unforeseen patterns to facilitate problem identification for rapid resolution. The ClearForest Modeler solution makes the process of defining new concepts straightforward and efficient for non-technical users. The application is designed around an iterative it·er·a·tive adj. 1. Characterized by or involving repetition, recurrence, reiteration, or repetitiousness. 2. Grammar Frequentative. Noun 1. paradigm, allowing for rapid and continuous improvements of results. ClearForest Modeler takes sample documents as input, processes them, and then generates a suggested list of relevant terms, statistically significant terms and term generalizations. The user provides feedback by excluding terms and assigning elements to user-defined entity types. ClearForest Modeler represents more than simple dictionary or thesaurus management, combining statistical techniques with sophisticated linguistics linguistics, scientific study of language, covering the structure (morphology and syntax; see grammar), sounds (phonology), and meaning (semantics), as well as the history of the relations of languages to each other and the cultural place of language in human (e.g. the identification of parts-of-speech, stems, polarity (1) The direction of charged particles, which may determine the binary status of a bit. (2) In micrographics, the change in the light to dark relationship of an image when copies are made. , and word phrases). "ClearForest believes that in order to extract maximum value from text you need to take a domain specific approach to the problem, and the Modeler puts the power to do this in the hands of a much wider community of business and industry experts," said Barak Pridor, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.
