Here’s something I’ve been meaning to share for a while: the slides for a talk entitled “Text Analytics: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow”, co-authored with colleagues Vladimir Zelevinsky and Michael Ferretti. In this we outline some of the key challenges in text analytics, describe some of Endeca’s current research in this area, examine the current state of the text analytics market and explore some of the prospects for the future.

Hi Chris
Thanks for stopping by. I’ve no immediate plans to give this talk again (particularly as I don’t work for Endeca any more
but the general principles are mirrorred in a lot of my other talks and papers. Was it intro material in particular you were after? If so this one might also wet your whistle:

BTW I just had a look at your site too – intriguing. Would be interesed to hear how you (plan to?) use text analytics.
