Taxonomy Management
The problem facing almost all enterprises is not the lack of information but the inability to connect, categorize, and analyze information to improve organizational performance. The overabundance of content is surpassing the frameworks and controls in most enterprises. With over 80% of business decisions being made using unstructured content, managing information capital through a taxonomy has become a key source of competitive advantage, business agility, and decision making.
conceptClassifier for SharePoint’s taxonomy manager component is a simple to use, intuitive user interface designed for Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) to build, maintain, and manage taxonomies. The powerful taxonomy and automated classification features creates the framework to classify content based on concepts to one or more nodes in the taxonomy or multiple taxonomies.
Eliminating complex Boolean rules and the need for training sets the taxonomy nodes can be generated from the conceptual metadata found in the document corpus. The Subject Matter Expert (SME) has full control of the terms to be used as well as the weighting of the term based on its relevancy. This enables a much more robust taxonomy as the terms suggested are based on the organization’s own content and terminology. Interactive features, unique to the technology, provide automatic clue suggestion of new terms from the relevant documents that may not have been identified manually and instant feedback on the effect of changes to the taxonomy.
The ability to automatically generate conceptual metadata from your own content eliminates the typical challenges in taxonomy development and on-going maintenance. As content is classified it is aligned to your business structures using the language you understand.
