Processing Tools and Services from iLexIR Ltd

We describe the text processing tools that iLexIR has developed in collaboration with the Universities of Cambridge and Sussex. iLexIR has sole commercial rights to an extensive toolkit for English text processing applications and undertakes additional software development as well as tool tuning and porting for SMEs marketing applications with a text processing component. To date, we have worked with clients to develop sentiment classification systems, mobile phone based question-answering services, and text mining tools for use in ESOL examination design and biomedical information extraction. Our toolkit has been extensively deployed for non-commercial research and proven its utility in projects on ontology and lexicon construction, anonymisation, anaphora resolution, word sense disambiguation, and many forms of text classification at the document, passage and sentence levels.
