ProQuest, a division of the Cambridge Information Group, creates specialized information resources and technologies for libraries and researchers worldwide. For the past five years, the company has used Nstein's TME (Text Mining Engine) to assist in organizing, categorizing and writing abstracts for a growing body of news, dissertations and academic papers. Nstein allows the automation and standardization of these tasks so reducing Editorial involvement.
“In addition to improving the quality of our tagging, automating these processes resulted in significant cost savings, which were channeled into adding value to our product offerings,” explained John Taylor, Vice President of Product Development and Technology for ProQuest. “We increased the amount of content aggregated from 700 journals to now nearly triple that. Further, we created a stronger taxonomy to increase the depth of classification, allowing end users to find the exact content they're looking for with greater precision and speed.”
“The increase in assets along with the deep levels of classifications help researchers get right to the information they need,” said Luc Filiatreault, Chief Executive Officer of Nstein Technologies. “We are proud of Nstein's role in assisting ProQuest serve the user community.”
