Attivio Hires a New Chief Scientist
April 6, 2012
PR Web recently posted “Attivio Promotes John O’Neil to Chief Scientist,” a new release announcing the promotion of John O’Neil to Chief Scientist at Attivio Inc, a software company specializing in enterprise search solutions and unified information access.
According to the release, in his new role, O’Neil will be responsible for developing and productizing Attivio’s core capabilities as well as working with the company’s Technology Advisory Board to drive corporate thought leadership.
We learned:
“O’Neil has written and designed software for search, natural language processing and machine learning for more than a decade. After receiving a Ph.D. in linguistics from Harvard University, he worked for LingoMotors where he designed the company’s main commercial product. He also worked at Basis Technology, Inc. where he was the designer and lead developer for the Rosette Linguistics Platform, a language processing and entity extraction suite of products. O’Neil is the author of more than 20 papers in Computer Science and Linguistics and has given talks at numerous professional conferences.”
We find this decision to be interesting. Could the Fast Search roots be in need of technical replenishment?
