GammaWare™ – Automatic Categorization for Publishers and Information Providers

GammaWare News Edition is an automatic categorization solution that classifies news stories into a taxonomy, or tree of topics. It can also tag stories with meta data – including category paths, keywords, links to related articles and context-sensitive summaries. Automatic categorization allows publishers to enhance content searchability, browse stories by topic, and perform targeted content distribution.

Easily Create Meta Data

• ...in the newsroom: With GammaWare, each time a writer or editor finishes working on a story, it is automatically categorized. The software can return suggested categories and keywords, allowing the user, who is intimately familiar with the context of the story, to correct, edit or approve them.

• ...in the archive: GammaWare allows librarians to tag and categorize backfiles, en masse. The software can process more than 500,000 stories per day.

Meta Data Benefits

• For writers and editors: The newsroom is a hive of information, and for news staffers working under amazing pressure, it is a critical need to sort through it quickly. By tagging archived stories and news feeds with consistent meta-data, you allow journalists to search for concepts, not words, and intuitively browse a subject tree while quickly linking to contextually related information.

• For online readers: With GammaWare categorization, readers of a news website see only the content most relevant to them, and can easily navigate it using subject-based browsing and context-sensitive search. Online archives become more usable and accessible when taxonomy browsing complements search.
