SER Solutions, Inc. announced the launch of SERglobalBrain, a knowledge discovery and delivery solution. SERglobalBrain responds to simple natural language queries. SERglobalBrain analyzes the content and context of information – not just key words and phrases. The application is for structured and unstructured data, regardless of the source or file format. With SERglobalBrain, incorrect spelling does not impact retrieval performance because the software does not require exact matches in text patterns. SERglobalBrain utilizes an associative access method for content-based retrieval. The software can also be taught to act on or deliver answers that meet specific content or criteria by pushing or pulling information off designated Internet sites. In addition, SERglobalBrain is language independent because it looks for patterns and meanings. SERglobalBrain is available in three specific versions that match individual, enterprise or public knowledge access needs. www.ser.com
