The most interesting wave hitting the social web in 2012 is social curation. This was kicked off in 2011 as Pinterest's growth was noticed by Silicon Valley and a number of companies quickly followed suit - Snip.It launched as a social information curation platform, Quora adopted boards for a similar purpose, and Fab.com launched a structured social commerce feed.

The first attempt at a lead for this post, it turns out, was pretty much the same lead I wrote five years ago when reviewing a book about dirty data. My lapse illustrates two things: First, that I have the memory of a goldfish and some bad habits to address. Second, that dirty data is a constant thorn in the sides of data journalists. Luckily, we now have a tool to address it.

I2E Enterprise Text Mining Software - Linguamatics
Lexical functional grammar (LFG) is a grammar framework in theoretical linguistics , a variety of generative grammar . It is a type of phrase structure grammar , as opposed to a dependency grammar . The development of the theory was initiated by Joan Bresnan and Ronald Kaplan in the 1970s, in reaction to the direction research in the area of transformational grammar had begun to take. It mainly focuses on syntax , including its relation with morphology and semantics . There has been little LFG work on phonology (although ideas from optimality theory have recently been popular in LFG research). LFG views language as being made up of multiple dimensions of structure.

Mint Founder Invests in Semantic Text Startup Topicmarks
Topicmarks , a startup that uses semantic text technology to extract the most important information from any document, is raising $700,000 in seed funding from qualified investors in a round led by Mint.com founder Aaron Patzer, Mashable has learned. Patzer, who sold Mint.com to Intuit for $170 million last year, is very smitten with the company. “These guys have tech developed over the last three years, a team of strong engineers, deals in place with Evernote and ShareVault already,” Patzer wrote on AngelList . “Also, I’ve done a dive into the algorithms behind the system, which are impressive and being patented.” We believe this is the first time Patzer has led a funding round. He has existing investments in Milo.com and HealthTap.Topicmarks - summarize your text documents in minutes

Scalable to reasonably large data sets. Our core algorithms for clustering, classfication and batch based collaborative filtering are implemented on top of Apache Hadoop using the map/reduce paradigm. However we do not restrict contributions to Hadoop based implementations: Contributions that run on a single node or on a non-Hadoop cluster are welcome as well. The core libraries are highly optimized to allow for good performance also for non-distributed algorithmsAggregation
