Quintura Search 1.0 Makes Its Debut
Quintura, Inc. (http://www.quintura.com), which calls itself a "next-generation" Web search company, announced the release of its Web search software, Quintura Search 1.0 beta. It offers a visual semantic map—the map of keywords and relationships between keywords. "One-Click Search," adding or subtracting keywords from a query using the map and a mouse click, lets a user specify the context or meaning of the keyword. This narrows the search and allows faster retrieval of relevant information.Quintura Search 1.0 is a client-side application. It uses regular search engines like Yahoo!'s or Google's to send and retrieve query results. Quintura Search 1.0, which is available as public beta, can be downloaded at http://www.quintura.com/download. The final release is expected by the end of 2005, with the launch of online search services expected in 2Q 2006. The Quintura technology is based on more than a decade of the founders' research and development in neural networks and artificial intelligence. This work includes several patent-pending technologies for a context-based visual search using neural networks. Quintura is privately held and backed by its founders and private technology investors. The company has U.S. offices in Alexandria, Va., and research and development operations in Moscow. Source:Quintura, Inc.
