Linguistic Services Overview

The Idilia platform components provide an extensive set of functions for embedding deep semantic analysis within your applications. All services are available in the cloud at http://api.idilia.com.

Web Services

Idilia offers several services as described in Available cloud services and below:

  • Sense Analysis Service: The Sense Analysis service annotates text with its senses. It is based on a combination of several machine learning algorithms and rules-based components. It handles well-capitalized documents, poorly-capitalized documents (e.g., tweets, informal documents) and Internet search queries. The generated senses can be correlated to corresponding entities in other well-known namespaces (e.g., Wikipedia).
  • Paraphrase Service: The paraphrase service generates a list of paraphrases (i.e., alternate nearly equivalent wordings) for an Internet search query. The service makes use of the Sense Analysis to obtain the senses and of the semantic relationships from the Language Graph.
  • Language Graph Service: The Language Graph service exposes the semantic relationships contained in the Language Graph. Both a machine interface and a visual browser are available.
  • Document Matching Service: The Document Match service determines if a document matches a provided set of senses from the Language Graph.

Using the Services

The REST API provides simple access to the various components of the Idilia platform when building applications.
