Today's enterprise is dynamic, with operations across the globe that conduct business in numerous local languages. The need to manage content in varied languages has never been more acute. It is no longer ideal for the enterprise to restrict communications to a single language. To this end, Autonomy provides extensive language support within a single platform (IDOL Server).
IDOL can automatically deduce the significance of new units of meaning - such as words, phrases, idioms or concepts - avoiding a manual 'teaching' process
The core IDOL technology is fully data agnostic and can support all forms of single and multibyte languages
Fully modal and scalable, Autonomy's software unlocks an enormous potential for a global enterprise, as its brightest talents can now collaborate with and provide expertise to anyone in the organization
Autonomy supports multiple languages on the BBC websites
The IDOL Server develops a statistical understanding of the patterns of any language, such as German, Spanish, Arabic, Japanese and Norwegian, using sophisticated probabilistic modeling and pattern matching techniques. Although IDOL currently supports an impressive 112 languages, it is trivial to add support for more because the technology is fundamentally language independent. IDOL uses non-linear adaptive digital signal processing that exploits high performance probabilistic modeling to extract a document's meaning. Since the technology is mathematically-based and free from linguistic restraints, it need not use any language-dependent parsing or dictionaries to extract meaning. While many enterprise platforms rely on pre-existing knowledge of grammar and linguistic rules, IDOL allows indexed content to dictate the model as it develops a statistical understanding of patterns that occur in the content over time. Hence even slang or industry-specific jargons do not pose a barrier for processing. True to its Bayesian roots, the more content IDOL collects about an industry - e.g. legal terms, pharmaceutical developments - the more understanding it will form about that domain.
A new language can be thought of as simply another type of information from which IDOL needs content to learn. It is therefore possible to mix more than one language in IDOL as long as enough content from those languages is available. Moreover, cross-lingual systems can be configured in which a user can query a subject in English and automatically be provided with similar information in both English and another language such as Spanish. Automatic language detection of incoming content as well as language identification of queries are both offered.
