Multi-temporal Information Object Disambiguation, Classification, and Categorization Software System

Multi-temporal information object classification and categorization software

Drexel researchers have developed an integrated software system that disambiguates, classifies, enriches, and categorizes digital informational objects, such as manuscripts and authors.  Indexing big data troves are computationally expensive endeavors.  With the developed system, the organization and linking of granular data elements of electronic information is optimized.  Computational time is reduced, as the number of iterations to reach convergence is lower with the implementation of incremental affinity propagation than with existing methods.  From applying machine learning algorithms, the system can automatically adjust the timing, scope, and scale of data indexing.  While this software has been applied to journal articles, additional real-world datasets are being tested and accuracy benchmarking is being performed.

Applications

  • Big data analysis
  • Maintain and update indexes for accurate data access

Advantages

  • System can incrementally update as new documents are added
  • Accelerated clustering
  • Faster processing times reduce computational needs
  • Modular system with adjustable timing, scope, and scale
  • Leverage automated and manual data linking operations
