[Editor's Note: For information on UIMA, see the NewsBreak "IBM Introduces Open Software Framework for Analysis of Unstructured Information" at http://newsbreaks.infotoday.com/nbreader.asp?ArticleID=16143.] The new Public Image Monitoring Solution uses the company's text analytics and semantic search technology, as well as Nstein Technologies' multilingual text analytics and newsfeeds. It also enables organizations to incorporate content from Factiva, such as newsfeeds and published articles. The Public Image Monitoring Solution is currently available from IBM and Nstein Technologies (http://www.nstein.com).IBM reported that companies can use the Public Image Monitoring Solution in three areas: 1) to track success of product introductions and marketing campaigns, 2) to help determine focus areas for product and marketing improvements, and 3) to conduct impact analysis by comparing consumer feedback and industry trends to actual sales data and marketing investments. According to the company, organizations in diverse industries can benefit from this solution. The product supports IBM's companywide strategy to help clients identify, access, and extract valuable meaning from information—regardless of format, source, or structure—enabling them to make better, more informed business decisions.
