The document outlines the objectives and work to be done for the SystemX14 project. The project aims to develop an experimental platform for analyzing unstructured content like text, audio, and video from open sources using natural language processing and text mining software. Key objectives are to integrate these components, develop applications for information retrieval and open source monitoring, and account for user needs not met by existing applications. Work includes improving processing on noisy data, integrating new languages, interconnecting components, and addressing scalability, immediacy, and innovative user interfaces.

Project Objectives
2
 To develop an experimental platform for the analysis of unstructured content
(text, audio / video)
 Integration of the software components provided by project partners for the main sectors of
natural language processing and text mining industry (transcription, translation, information
extraction, search...)
 Development of innovative applications prototypes for information retrieval and open sources
monitoring based on those components
 To take into account users needs uncovered by existing applications
 Extension to social networks data
 Extension to multilingual data
 Reduction of costs and delays to adapt processings to a new domain or a new language

Work to be done
3
 At software component level
 Improve the robustness of processing on noisy data (amateur video, blogs, NFWC…)
 Integrate new languages
 Define a process for the limited cost (time and resources) development of linguistic resources, based on
learning from targeted corpus.
 At application level
 Interconnect components, share a metadata repository or indexes
 Deployment and infrastructure
 Anticipate scaling (from a few hundreds of thousands of documents to hundreds of millions of
documents) and establish an architecture and deployment strategy that facilitates the scaling.
 Immediacy
 Process data in constrained time (indexes refreshing strategy)
 User interface and interaction
 Innovation in visualization and interactivity (also to address the need for scalability)
