SentiMap - Sentence Handling Toolkit : exploit English sentences in your business applications

Sentence Analyzer - enabling business and enterprise applications to handle sentences and text

Find, search, sort and filter. A Find/Search utility now done with sentences. Use it for local, enterprise or web documents.

Sentences, after analysis, become amenable to more intelligent search operations. This helps build useful and practical search tools, involving not just the words, but a complex rich with content and meaning and structure. A large mass of target sentences can be filtered/sorted using some desired "benchmarks".

The finding is not "textually rigid". Human-friendly allowances and structural flexibility becomes possible. Similar sentences get collected and stacked, minor differences in content and structure notwithstanding. The match is as near in meaning and intention as can be managed from a machine.

Its practical usages are many. Say, "highlighting" a document with some specific desired sentences standing out. Or, retrieving text from the web, extracting a specific theme. Some homework is needed to create just the right set of benchmarks, but that can be mechanized.

In the boxes below, please enter 1-2 desired benchmarks, and a bunch of 20-30 target sentences (takes a while). Try to use sentences which have structural similarity, that is a limitation of this demo. Also explore the "Compare less tightly" and other options. For questions : kinshuk_in @ yahoo dot. com

Note : The RESULTS shown are the human readable equivalent of Java/C# objects, and they have lots of additional information, like word meanings, group codes like colors and flavors etc., intended for further analytical/statistical treatment. This demo (created with no NLP APIs), stresses that with text, it is better to first maximize grammar based processing, and use statistics/math methods much later.

Sentences must be separated from each other by an ending period (. or ! or ?) and one space.

Find/filter sentences demo : find sentences by your benchmarks ( Click more samples : A, B, C, D then Find/Collect)

Enter ONE benchmark sentence. This will be the basis for a finding operation.

Enter multiple TARGET sentences. This is what you want searched using the benchmark.

Options for comparing, or finding and selecting (i.e. change default settings)
Compare less tightly	Use frequently, if find results are not OK
More structural than content	and
Tree depth (deeper into structure)

Features, tall claims, and things to note in this demo :
Most sentences will be analyzed and compared in this toolkit. That is a plus over many POS taggers. Most sentences will yield a pattern.
Do NOT assume that the "benchmarks" are being searched by human meaning. It is mostly structural, with a peppering of the content.
In unstructured things like hotel reviews, a lot of prior homework using similar reviews is needed to create effective benchmarks/finders, needs a tool (not in this demo).

But it is not exact ? : Only adding machines can be exact, and the "panda eats, shoots and leaves" ! Google is successful because it exceeds being an adding machine, becomes a "probably" with increasing exactness. So is high-frequency stock trading. This toolkit can be quite exact in many situations, especially when the sentences involved are structurally similar.

Can more than one benchmark be used ? : Yes, multiple benchmark sentences that adequately represent different variations of the desired text can be used. The finding process becomes slower.
