"SCOPA" is the original name for our Explainable AI Platform that provides high throughput, scalable, explainable predictive analytics. 

Explainable AI Platform - SCOPA - for high volume specialized XAI

"SCOPA" is the original name for our Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] that
provides high throughput, scalable, explainable predictive analytics.

SCOPA is now called Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] 
Our platform allows us to deploy a suite of layered deep learning, ML, and
algorithmic models, in an ensemble. The results of this can be reasoned-upon to
answer very subjective questions about the input data holistically.  Models and
algorithms are individually scalable, and each may identify or predict a
specific outcome, but collectively they can answer more holistic questions. The
orchestration of the models, data analysis and pipelining is contained and
managed within the Explainable AI Platform.

Explainable AI Platform Features
Why "Explainable AI"?
AI should not be a black box. To engender trust it is imperative that consumers
of machine learning predictive analytics understand how the AI reached its
decision.

Whether for decision support or as a decision maker, an AI application must be
able to explain itself and be accountable.

Explainable AI (XAI
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explainable_artificial_intelligence]) is a
burgeoning field in machine learning that tackles this challenge, so we, as
ultimate end-users, have faith in machine intelligence and can strive for its
continuous improvement. Our Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] 
embraces explainability, providing insights into the decision making process of
the predictive output that it has made in answering questions of the data,
ultimately providing a fingerprint of the predictive qualities.

Scalable
Our Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] is
built for scalability. Every model or algorithm deployed into the platform is
containerised and individually scalable. Queuing and constraint theory allows us
to dynamically scale models at every step in a prediction pipeline based on the
performance and throughput required of that model.

Evolvable
Evolvability has been baked into the architecture as a 1st class concern
providing a high degree of potential for customisation and extension. This makes
it an extremely portable solution across diverse domains, and also allows the
predictive model architecture to evolve as the problem space changes over time.

Deployable
Our Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] is
deployable in cloud or on-premises, and can be used either on a fully managed
SaaS basis or as an enterprise self-managed deployment in your own
infrastructure. It also uses contemporary open-source architecture technologies,
with full deployment automation. It can even be deployed on laptops for
demonstrations or at-the-edge applications.

Use Cases
Our Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] is
ideally suited to enterprise use-cases in a number of sectors, such as
specialised media classification, industrial maintenance, agri-tech, and
healthcare.

It has been deployed to classify terrorist and extremist propaganda imagery for
the security services and the Home Office in the UK at scale. 
Even for such a complex and multi-faceted challenge, a bare bones instance of it
scored remarkable metrics (over 0.95 precision, 0.85 recall) with plenty of room
for substantial improvement.

Our Explainable AI Platform
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/explainable-ai-platform] can
be deployed for use cases in industry such as railway track environment analysis
, or for predictive maintenance.

In Agri-Tech is is suited to use-cases such as crop disease prediction, yield
prediction, or pest analysis using for example, drone footage, or spraying-boom
camera imagery.

In healthcare it can be used for novel image analysis such as bone fracture
detection. 

Please do get in touch if you would like to find out more.

Data Language's Text AI Services for Publishers provides automatic classification, entity extraction, relationship extraction, and recommendations.

Text AI Services for Publishers - Our Industry-leading SaaS

Our Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] were
originally designed to meet the challenges of automated content workflows in the
publishing industry, and are ideally suited to AI classification and automated
tagging of news, sport and entertainment content.

Why do publishers tag their content?
Most large publishers need to tag or classify their content for a number of
reasons :

 * to assist internal processes and work-flows
 * to improve search and discovery
 * to provide richer content and user analytics
 * to drive advertising
 * to deliver richer user experiences

Typically tagging is a manual task, integrated into the editorial workflow and
the CMS. Increasingly, publishers are working to automate this process using NLP
and machine learning techniques.

Automated content tagging
Automating content tagging unlocks a lot more value, as the automated-tagging
system can be used to

 * improve tagging efficiency, consistency and quality on the news desks
 * fully-automate tagging of external news feeds
 * unlock value in long-tail content
 * automate tagging of other content around the organisation

For this reasons, publishers are investing large sums and time in building their
own automated tagging systems. However what may seem like a simple problem in
the R&D labs can turn into a much more complex and expensive problem, when put
into production.

How Data Language Text AI Services can help
O [https://datalanguage.com/tagmatic]ur Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] are an AI
and Machine Learning fully managed SaaS product. We built them to make it as
simple as possible to integrate automated tagging and classification into your
publishing systems, addressing all the key challenges :

 1. It is incredibly easy to integrate. Send it content to learn. Send it
    content to tag.
 2. It uses your own dictionaries, taxonomies, and classification vocabularies
    out of the box.
 3. The engineering challenge of scaling, retraining, and efficiently
    redeploying the machine learning models is done for you.
 4. It learns on the fly. As new terms arise in news, our Text AI Services
    [https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] learn
    them quickly.

Total cost of ownership
Building you own AI based tagging solution is no mean feat. It is not just a
data science problem, but involves software engineering, testers, DevOps,
infrastructure, scaling automation, model deployment automation, continuous
machine learning model training automation, as well as the project management
and business processes that accompany a project of this nature. Both the total
cost of ownership and time-to-deliver is substantial.

With our Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] you can be
up and running in hours, not months, at a fraction of the total cost and you can
put your data scientists to work on your market differentiating data outcomes
instead.

A great AI or ML model is worthless if it can't be delivered in a scalable, cost effective and technically sustainable way. Find out how.

Data Science at Scale - 10% AI, 90% Engineering

A great AI or ML model is worthless if it can't be delivered in a scalable, cost
effective and technically sustainable way. Our data science team excels in the
design and implementation of machine and deep learning models for the analysis
of data and media at scale.

Data Science seems to have something mystical about it, to the extent that
enterprises have almost come to consider it as a magical solution to impossible
problems. The reality is that behind DS there are tons of unfashionable data
engineering and analysis tasks, before statistical models can be applied to the
problem. 

Our team of talented experts here at Data Language can leverage years' worth of
technical excellence to ensure your AI solution can actually be scaled and
delivered at the highest standards of software engineering.

Understand your data 
Unlock the full potential of your data through early discovery, analysis, and
visualisation.

Learn fast
With so many variables to tweak, rapid feedback and short iteration cycles are
imperative to an effective delivery.

Models are software
As with any piece of code, statistical models also benefit from engineering best
practices for delivering at scale, with controlled total cost of ownership.

Data Science at Scale

Data Language announces promising results from this Innovate UK -funded AI
project, building on their long-running technology partnership with Cochrane. 

Innovate UK Project
Title: “AI Classification of COVID-19 studies to ensure clinical guidance and
healthcare policy is informed by current meta-analysis of all available evidence
”

This Innovate UK grant-funded project ran from August 2020 to April 2021.

Data Language has worked with Cochrane since 2014, designing and delivering a
microservice-based linked data platform that encodes an authoritative knowledge
graph of healthcare clinical evidence. This has included work to refine, iterate
and scale the platform whilst creating a suite of applications to publish
evidence in healthcare as structured data. The platform enabled Cochrane to
rapidly deploy their Covid 19 Study Register in response to the coronavirus
pandemic in 3 weeks last March.

This Innovate UK -funded AI Project has delivered a new capability in Data
Language’s Text AI services to enable automated creation (“clinical coding”) of
PICO Graphs, using values from Cochrane vocabularies and standard medical
vocabularies assigned to Population, Intervention, Comparison and Outcome
structures for clinical analyses.

The specific outcomes from the initial phase of project work can be summarised
as:

 1. We created a working Machine Learning approach.
 2. We have a clear set of next steps.

Following the successful conclusion of the project work to develop the AI
components, the next steps are to focus on key optimizations to move it into
productionization and commercialization. Timeframes are yet TBC.

Results from our Text AI Services Covid-19 Project with Cochrane

We are developing our Text AI Media Classification Products to help Cochrane automatically classify Clinical Studies onto Snomed-CT and PICO structured data

AI Classification of Clinical Studies with Text AI to fight Covid-19

We've just received the green light on this public-funded innovation project,
bringing two areas of significant Data Language expertise into play to help
combat Covid-19.

The mission combines two of our favourite things:
1. Clinical Evidence Knowledge Graphs
We've been working with Cochrane on their knowledge graph and data strategy
[https://datalanguage.com/blog/how-knowledge-graph-technology-is-helping-cochrane-respond-to-covid-19] 
since we started the project with them in 2014. As part of this, we recently
helped them launch their Covid-19 Study Register
[https://datalanguage.com/blog/covid-19-rapid-response-technical-delivery-at-cochrane]
, which summarises the current state of Covid-19 clinical evidence from around
the world that has been released into the public domain via authoritative trial
registries and journal databases.

2. Our Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] for
automated text classification
Over that time, we have also cemented our position as industry leaders in
machine learning text classification and analytics, and have developed
particular expertise in high volatility domains (e.g. academic research,
breaking news, R&D) and complex ML engineering challenges. This led us to
creating our Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services].
[https://datalanguage.com/tagmatic-ai-document-classification]

Mission: to ensure Covid-19 clinical decision making is informed by the latest,
most comprehensive reliable evidence possible.
With the help of the UKRI [https://www.ukri.org/], Digital Catapult's Machine
Intelligence Garage
[https://www.digicatapult.org.uk/for-startups/acceleration-programmes/machine-intelligence-garage]
, and Innovate UK [https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/innovate-uk], we
are now bringing our Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.com/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] into play
with our subject matter expert partner Cochrane to help the fight against
Covid-19.

We will be launching this new HealthTech AI beta before December.

Automated Classification of Healthcare Evidence

We are proud to announce the new member of our Text AI Services
[https://datalanguage.ghost.io/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services] family:
Inline Entity Extraction. This new AI NLP service was created for high-value
knowledge organizations who want to accurately classify their text media at a
granular, inline-level.

The Problem: Automated Tagging in Custom Domains
We created this service to solve the problems that other Named Entity
Recognition (NER) NLP SaaS - and "build it yourself" approaches - could not
solve.

Our customers are high-value media and knowledge organizations. A huge portion
of their business asset value is locked in their unstructured media assets,
which they must leverage to add value to their subscription, DaaS, targeted
advertising, and other business models. This unstructured content must be
connected to their custom business domain via knowledge graphs and other
structured data systems:-

 * Complexity: To liberate this value, accurate inline text classification of 
   100s of 1,000s of entities is required to enable structured connection with
   bespoke information architecture models and/or knowledge graphs.
 * Custom Domain: Generic off-the-shelf NLP SaaS solutions do not recognize
   these custom entities, so a mapping exercise is required, and is often a too
   low resolution to provide value.
 * Rich Metadata: Other NLP solutions do not provide the rich, domain
   model-aware metadata, because they are not trained for the custom domain.
 * Small Training Sets: Other custom NLP solutions require larger training sets
   and golden corpora that cover the entire target entity set.
 * Cost of Build: "Build it yourself" becomes very expensive, with a large data
   scientist and engineering overheads, while organizations find themselves
   re-solving the same challenges that we have already solved.
 * Cost of Maintenance: "Manage it yourself" has a surprisingly large data
   science and engineering overhead, to overcome production challenges that we
   have already solved.

Our Solution: Text AI Services Inline Entity Extraction
Our Inline Entity Extraction SaaS handles a far greater number of classes than
other NER NLP solutions, while delivering impressive performance results. It
also works out of the box at scale for your production platforms.

Our Inline Entity Extraction SaaS comes with all these benefits immediately: 

 * Custom Domains at Scale: It classifies text content to 100s of 1,000s of
   entities in a custom domain.
 * Powerful API: It provides a rich API for interacting with the machine
   learning service metadata.
 * Does its own ML housekeeping: It automatically manages machine learning model
   ‘fallout’.
 * Self-Optimizing: It self-optimizes its machine learning models, on the fly.
 * Scalable: It is able to scale up indefinitely.
 * Production-Ready: It is Production-ready, out of the box.

All the engineering is done, and the security & maintenance are on us!

Proud Finalists in London's 2020 Civic Innovation Challenge

As part of our Text AI Services SaaS product range
[https://datalanguage.ghost.io/products/datalanguageai/text-ai-services], we are
proud to announce the launch of our cutting-edge Text Classification service.

The Problem: Automated Tagging in Custom Domains
We created this service to solve the problems that other NLP Text Classification
products could not solve.

Our customers are high-value media organizations. A huge portion of their
business asset value is locked in their unstructured text content:-

 * Aboutness: To liberate this value, an accurate classification of content
   "Aboutness" is required to classify content to the organization's bespoke
   information architecture models and/or knowledge graphs.
 * Custom Domain: Generic off-the-shelf NLP SaaS solutions do not recognize
   these custom aboutness classifications.
 * Rich Metadata: Other NLP solutions do not provide the rich metadata, because
   they are not trained for the custom domain.
 * Rapid Learning: Other NLP solutions can't learn on the fly, and require
   expensive and time-consuming training cycles to learn new concepts.
 * Cost of Build: "Build it yourself" becomes surprisingly expensive, with a
   large data scientist and engineering overheads, and organizations find
   themselves re-solving the same unforeseen challenges that we have already
   solved.
 * Cost of Maintenance: "Manage it yourself" has a surprisingly large data
   science and engineering overhead, to overcome production challenges that we
   have already solved.

Our Solution: Text Classification AI
Our Text Classification SaaS trains itself and learns your team's in-house style
while delivering impressive performance results. It also works out of the box at
scale for your production platforms.

Our Text Classification SaaS comes with all these benefits immediately: 

 * Customized to your Domain: It classifies text content to 100s of 1,000s of
   entities in a custom domain.
 * Powerful API: It provides a rich API for interacting with the machine
   learning service metadata.
 * Does its own ML housekeeping: It automatically manages the machine learning
   model ‘fallout’.
 * Self-Optimizing: It self-optimizes its machine learning models, on the fly.
 * Scalable: It is able to scale up indefinitely.
