New Version of Sail Labs Indexer
December 11, 2014
We’ve learned that Sail Labs has put out the next iteration of its Media Mining Indexer from the company’s post, “Sail Labs Announces Availability of Release Version 2014-2 and Media Mining Indexer 6.3.” The refreshingly straightforward press release offers bulleted lists of new features and major changes to be found throughout the new version. For the indexer, it lists:
- Support for sentiment analysis, i.e. classification of text segments into positive, negative, neutral or mixed sentiment
- Currently supported languages: US and International English, German and Russian
- Support for continuous intermittent result output, without final XML result, which increases performance in cases where collective results are not required.
- Support for licensing using a central license manager/server (LiMa), which is intended for use with cloud based use cases.
- Script-based building of language models using lmtscript.
For those not already familiar with Media Mining Indexer, it processes speech from multiple sources into XML, which can then be uploaded into a range of digital-asset-management systems for subsequent search and retrieval. The software boasts automatic speech recognition, speaker ID, speaker change detection, story detection, and topic classification.
Sail Labs specializes in high-end software for speech and multimedia analysis for vertical markets. Its name derives from “Speech Artificial Intelligence Language Laboratories.” Sail Labs is located in Vienna, Austria, and was founded in 1999.
