Gregory Piatetsky-Shapiro: Text analytics usage still low, but growing
The median use of text analytics was less than 10% in 2008; However over half respondents plan to increase usage in 2009.
Shunkai Fu, Will never be over-emphasized
As a company providing mobile search in China, Roboo depends intensively
on Text mining/analysis. We believe finer service will be available
after we go further and further.
Alessandro ZANASI, Text Analytics/Mining in Security
Text Analytics/Mining is currently seen as a central technology to
protect EU citizens against terrorism and organized criminals and,
generally, for Security applications. One integrated project (about 10 M$)
dedicated to develop new text mining based Intelligence applications
has just been funded by European Commission and other ones, always text
mining based, are expected to be funded in 2009. ESRAB before and ESRIF
now are pointing these technologies as among the ones to be funded in
the next years in Europe to foster EU Intelligence capabilities.
