Unstructured Information Management Architecture Description

Unstructured Information Management applications are software systems that analyze large volumes of unstructured information in order to discover knowledge that is relevant to an end user. UIMA is a framework and SDK for developing such applications. An example UIM application might ingest plain text and identify entities, such as persons, places, organizations; or relations, such as works-for or located-at.UIMA enables such an application to be decomposed into components, such as "language identification" > "language-specific segmentation" > "sentence boundary detection" > "entity detection (person/place names, etc.)". Each component must implement interfaces defined by the framework and must provide self-describing metadata through XML descriptor files. The framework manages these components and the data flow between them. Components are written in Java or C++; the data that flows between components is designed for efficient mapping between these languages. In addition, UIMA provides capabilities for wrapping components as network services, and it can scale to large volumes by replicating processing pipelines over a cluster of networked nodes. Unstructured Information Management Architecture offers you a powerful toolset for creating applications that are able to analyze and extract relevant information.
