ABOUT I2E   
Linguamatics’ flagship I2E technology combines four key capabilities to enable users to rapidly extract relevant facts and relationships from large document collections:

• Natural Language Processing (NLP), using linguistics to quickly interpret the meaning of unstructured text sources.
• Search engine approach where users can define and refine ad hoc queries interactively, returning results in real time.
• Intuitive reporting of extracted information and drill-down to supporting evidence.
• Ability to plug in domain knowledge such as ontologies, taxonomies and thesauri, to provide semantic search capabilities.

I2E features a client-server architecture built using industry-standard Java and C for use by single users, project teams, or in enterprise-wide deployments. Organizations have full control over source content to be mined, definition of queries and results output.
