Name:	Cognition's Semantic NLP
Product URL:	http://www.cognition.com/info/what.html
Description:	Cognition's Semantic NLP, the Company's patented linguistic meaning-based text processing technology, is able to simultaneously deliver significantly higher levels of precision and recall than is possible with currently used NLP and Search technologies. Cognition's natural language technology employs a unique mix of linguistics and mathematical algorithms which has, in effect, taught the computer the meanings (or associated concepts) of nearly all the words and frequently used phrases within the common English language. It also has knowledge of the relations between words and phrases, especially paraphrase (a "finger" or a "digit") and taxonomy (a "finger" is part of a "hand", a "cow" is a "bovine" and is a "mammal").

Name:	Cognition for Legal
Product URL:	http://www.cognition.com/info/cog_legal.html
Date Launched:	01/2004
Description:	Cognition's Semantic NLPTM for the Legal industry enables law firms, litigation service bureaus, and all forms of eDiscovery and processing technology to derive greater meaning and value from the overwhelming amount of data generated through the e-discovery and forensics process. Cognition's technology interprets the meaning of words in the context of how they are used, thereby significantly increasing the precision of the discovery results. In addition, through the technology's understanding of synonymy, it is able to retrieve more relevant results, even when the exact words used in the discovery query are not contained in the retrievals. Cognition returns results which are more than just a pattern-match on the query words entered by the user -- Cognition returns results reflecting the desired contextual meaning of the discovery words. This capability significantly increases the relevance and usefulness of the discovery results. Cognition's Semantic NLP enhances the ability to win cases by eliminating the need for the construction of long Boolean string searches, and quickly and efficiently finding the incriminating, "smoking gun" documents. Cognition makes the review process much more efficient and productive by identifying more relevant documents for attorney review, shrinking cycle time and increasing case throughput. Currently, Cognition's Semantic NLP technology is seamlessly integrated with the LexisNexis Concordance's case management.
