    Interactive Information Extraction 3.0

    Category  Cross-Omics>Data/Text Mining Systems/Tools

    Abstract  Interactive Information Extraction (I2E) is a text search and
    mining system that can be used in diverse application areas such as
    systems biology, biomarker detection, safety/tox and drug repositioning
    in pharmaceutical R&D to key opinion leader, sentiment and
    competitive analysis for business intelligence.

    I2E's advance Natural Language Processing (NLP) capabilities mine
    large collections of documents, extracting relevant facts and
    relationships from unstructured and semi-structured content such as
    scientific papers, internal project reports, patent documents, or news
    feeds.

    Product features/capabilities include:

    Searching in Context --
    I2E makes it easy to plug-in domain-specific knowledge using thesauri,
    taxonomies or ontologies, which describe the concepts in a given field
    and their relationships. I2E is used with commercial, public domain and
    in-house knowledge bases.

    The system is equally able to answer questions that are natural to a ‘life
    scientist’ who may be interested in biological targets, biomarkers,
    pathways and potential new therapeutics, as for the business analyst
    who wants to know the key trends and influencers in a particular market.

    Versatility --
    I2E is Not a point solution but offers a spectrum of capabilities that can
    be applied flex¬ibly to address text search and mining challenges.
    Strategies range from simple document retrieval using keyword search
    to advanced information extraction approaches, including retrieval of
    facts, relationships and entities using linguistic structure. Thus users
    match the right approach to their specific task and combine
    complementary techniques to get the answers they need.

    Getting Directly to the Answers --
    I2E gets straight to high value, relevant, re-usable knowledge. Results
    are highly structured; enabling rapid analysis and export directly to
    spreadsheets like Excel or network visualizers like Cytoscape (see G6G
    Product Number 20092).

    Researchers and information professionals get the flexibility and
    analytical rigor that they need. Tabular reports summarize the extracted
    information in a compact, clustered format with easy drill-down to
    supporting evidence, including direct links to source documents.

    User Focus --
    I2E is highly user-centric. The I2E Express interface is easy to use and
    similar in appearance to a conventional search engine. For more
    advanced use, I2E Pro lets the user view, construct, and manage
    sophisticated queries using an intuitive drag and drop interface.
    Optimized queries can then be saved and published for use by less
    experienced users. So that validated queries can be applied in a simple
    and repeatable way, for example to run regular queries on a growing
    database of literature.

    Quality and Accuracy --
    I2E’s advanced linguistic queries enable users to extract high value
    information. Searching with entities and concepts (e.g. gene, protein) is
    highly flexible. Linguistic wildcard features allow users to ask open
    questions and search for entities, verbs and unknown relationships.
    Searching using positional constraints can identify stronger
    relationships by finding terms that often appear together, for example
    within proximity of “n” words, or in the same sentence, or in a particular
    region of a document.

    Unlike other systems, I2E is Not limited to searching inside a single
    sentence, but can also filter based on the broader context of the
    document. More distant and indirect relationships can be detected by
    combining results sets or visualizing information networks to find
    relationships across multiple documents.

    Performance and Robustness --
    I2E is scalable to millions of documents, such as the whole of Medline
    (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online), and works
    with large documents such as patents. In addition I2E is able to
    combine large numbers of search terms. For example classes of
    genes, proteins, diseases or compounds that may contain up to tens of
    thousands of terms, can be encapsulated within a single “class” search
    term. Search performance is fast and customers report that discovering
    relevant information using I2E has been shown to be at least ten times
    faster than conventional keyword search-based approaches.

    Control and Interactivity --
    The flexibility, transparency, speed, and structured results delivered by
    I2E mean that users can refine queries on-the-fly. I2E makes NLP
    based text search and mining interactive and intuitive, putting power into
    the hands of the user themselves.

    Integration --
    I2E can play a key role embedding information extraction into more
    complex workflows. This can be achieved by integrating with analytic
    workflow software or by exporting results in data formats compatible
    with standard enterprise software systems.
