i-Librarian is a web-based content assistant service, which allows users not only to store, organize and publish their personal works but also to locate similar documents in English and Bulgarian and to easily obtain the most essential texts from large collections of unfamiliar documents or search engine results. This pilot version will be extend to support German, Greek, Polish and Romanian in the next two years. The final version will be ready on 1st of March 2012.
The demo web sites present news, publications, events which have been annotated and structured in dynamic blocks. The selection in the “Hot topics/regions/organisation, people” blocks is based on text analysis performed by ASSET in real time. Consequently, the selection is fluid and recalculated against new data.
For every information item ASSET spots the main participants and activities which increases the reader's receptive capacity. The reader can then follow the lead suggested by ASSET to find similar content from thousands of publications otherwise hidden from view.
MediaTalk implements an Electronic Press Monitoring Service of the most popular media sources and provides analisys on the emerging topics, events, key actors and locations in the news information flow.
