Information context

Big amount of information is available in
textual form in databases and online sources

In this context, manual analysis and effective
extraction of useful information are not
possible

It is relevant to provide automatic tools for
analyzing large textual collections

Text mining definition
The objective of Text Mining is to exploit
information contained in textual documents in
various ways, including … discovery of
patterns and trends in data, associations
among entities, predictive rules, etc.
The results can be important both for:
 the analysis of the collection, and
 providing intelligent navigation and browsing
methods

Challenges in text mining






Data collection is “free text”, is not well-organized (Semistructured or unstructured)
No uniform access over all sources, each source has separate
storage and algebra, examples: email, databases, applications,
web
A quintuple heterogeneity: semantic, linguistic, structure,
format, size of unit information
Learning techniques for processing text typically need
annotated training
XML as the common model, it allows:
– Manipulation data with standards
– Mining becomes more data mining
– RDF emerging as a complementary model
The more structure you can explore the better you can do

Extract domain-specific
information from natural language
text
– Need a dictionary of
extraction patterns (e.g.,
“traveled to <x>” or
“presidents of <x>”)
• Constructed by hand
• Automatically learned
from hand-annotated
training data
– Need a semantic lexicon
(dictionary of words with
semantic category labels)
• Typically constructed
by hand

Aster Data position for Text Analysis
Data
Acquisition
Gather text from relevant
sources
(web crawling, document
scanning, news feeds,
Twitter feeds, …)
Pre-Processing
Mining
Analytic
Applications
Perform processing
required to transform and
store text data and
information
Apply data mining
techniques to derive
insights about stored
information
Leverage insights from
text mining to provide
information that improves
decisions and processes
(stemming, parsing, indexing,
entity extraction, …)
(statistical analysis,
classification, natural
language processing, …)
(sentiment analysis, document
management, fraud analysis,
e-discovery, ...)
