., last month, I had the chance to meet Jeff Hawkins, the inventor of the Palm Pilot and arguably the father of the smartphone. I learned that he is now pioneering the analysis of huge streams of real-time data using insights gained as a neuroscientist.

Vertically-focused semantic search represents an improvement in the online experience for site users, publishers and marketers. Users can quickly find information on the topics and subjects they are passionate about without leaving their favorite sites. They are presented with ads that are relevant to them, rather than the ubiquitous links for mortgage ...

Companies that learn how to leverage the massive amount of data that exists in the ether have an automatic advantage over their competitors. However, most companies don’t realize that 80% of data is unstructured and rarely utilized by businesses. Natural language processing software makes unstructured text meaningful and valuable for enterprises with big data initiatives.
