Cogito – a unique technology

“When I started to think about automatic comprehension of texts, I selected some aspects of the wider process of human comprehension. With the agreement of engineers, programmers, mathematicians and linguists, I focused on the following:
- analysis of the context and the structure in order to perform the most accurate disambiguation of the meaning of words having more than one meaning. Identifying the right meaning of words is fundamental to “understanding” the subject of the text;
- analysis of the logical structure of the sentences in order to identify the most relevant elements in the document;
-algorithms to identify the expressive structures that, when recognized, can infer important information from the content.
Just then, Cogito was born.”

Marco Varone, the Chief Technology Officer of Expert System

Cogito – a unique technology

Cogito is the pioneer semantic software developed by Expert System.

It understands the meaning of words, like a person does when reading. That’s why it’s a unique technology.

Because Cogito comprehends text, it controls the chaos generated by the thousands of files, documents, emails, articles, and web pages that we have to manage everyday.

Unlike traditional technologies based on keyword and statistics that can only guess the content of a text, Cogito reads and interprets all knowledge trapped in unstructured text, finding hidden relationships, trends, and events making the work of any knowledge worker or interactions with customers more effective. Cogito helps business professionals make better decisions faster.

Cogito is at the core of all Expert System’s products.

Cogito is a trade-mark and patent pending technology.

“The COGITO platform by Expert System, conceived to bring "intelligence" to the search, extraction and classification of unstructured information for internal management purposes and for monitoring and analyzing external sources, such as the Internet...".."
