CurrentResearch & development of text analytics and Natural Language Processing (NLP) software in a BigData domain. The specific focus is in the area of semantic analysis of text via a high performance N-dimensional Semantic Knowledge Base (SKB) for deep semantic analytics of text. The SKB is based on concepts distilled from a Ph.D. research topic: "Investigations Of Mechanisms To Improve Question Answering". A "must have" for the development of semantic-enabled text analytic capability, especially where large data/document searches or real-time analytics are required.The SKB is a component of a complete BigData framework providing high performance, security and fault tolerance for massive data (beyond Hadoop). SemantiGrid that provides a document store and search capability over massive data. Documents are automatically indexed and prepared for searching using TFIDF, keyword, ngrams, semantic search, phrase resolution, document classification, document sentiment, ... SemantiGrid provides: security via various level of encryption (user, group, document) and extreme fault tolerance. APIs including command-line, JAVA, C/C++. SemantiGrid can serve as the backend search engine for a data warehouse (a SQL UDF capability provides transparent integration with Teradata and is extensible to DB2 and Oracle).
