Using NLE to automate form processing

There are many form processing challenges which are traditionally dealt with manually. Any form which contains a limited content of possible responses is a good candidate for processing by machine. The most celebrated instance of this type of solution, is the METEO system in Canada which automatically processes incoming weather reports, with a 99% accuracy, and with instantaneous turnaround. This system has been successfully employed now for two decades.

Similarly, Singapore now uses a NLE application to process its incoming shipping, and because the software runs 24/7, this has significantly reduced the throughput time of each ship, saving the port millions of dollars.

Do you have a form processing situation? Would you like to automate it? We can help.

Using NLE to help with data retrieval

Finding the right sort of data is a critical and time-consuming part of our daily lives. NLE is helping to mine data and organise responses to search queries in a way which provides the best possible answer back. Searches can be required on both internet and intranet.

If you need an intelligent search algorithm for your intranet, or for a web application, we can help.

Using NLE to quality control a company's documentation

Companies often face massive internal documentation challenges. A manufacturer also faces the serious challenge of continually updating and translating their product manuals. Often the company, or the product, has its own internal jargon, which writers and translators must be aware of, and use consistently.

Toggletext can help with you create company lexicons, and writing guides. It can help you establish a quality control process for all documentation, whereby only the minimum upkeep of documents is necessary - a huge saving in time, stress and money.

Using NLE in just about anything!

The above examples are just a small flavour of where the application of NLE can produce effective results. If you think you have a situation where language may be of assistance, just ring us and ask. We will be happy to advise you, or to point you on to other related experts in the field.
