Proposed participation in a consortium addressing FCT-6-2015

GEOLSemantics, a French SME proposes itself as a potential participant in a consortium addressing FCT-6-2015 «Detection and analysis of terrorist-related content on the Internet».  GEOLSemantics is an SME specializing in automatic semantic extraction from texts (or transcribed speech) in different languages (French, English, Arabic (standard and dialects from the Maghreb and Egypt) and Chinese (Mandarin). GEOLSemantics has been the leader of the SAIMSI project (Suivi Adaptatif Interlingue et MultiSourcesdes Informations), the main French-funded project focused on the extraction of information about the activities of persons suspected of illegal acts, especially jihadist terrorism. GEOLSemantics is currently the leader of the ORELO project aiming at detecting the dialectal origin of writers or speakers. In the ORELO project, GEOLSemantics has developed dictionaries of dialects that extend the robustness of its treatment of Arabic containing dialectal elements. The project also required GEOLSemantics to expand its capabilities to include processing Arabic (standard or dialect) written using latin characters, a format commonly found on the web. Interested consortia can contact Léa LANAUD: Lea.LANAUD@systematic-paris-region.org
