Information Extraction for Discovery and Analysis in Mission Assurance

SUMMARY & CONCLUSIONSIn the Mission Assurance space, numerous use cases exist that could benefit from information extraction capabilities. Creating a software stack with generic capabilities, such as web interfaces, document reading, optical character recognition, and data storage and visualization can be applied repeatedly as new needs are identified. Many of these capabilities exist in open-source software that is modular, well-maintained, with a large user community for support and patching. Data analytics supported by information extraction is a critical component to better enable analysts to support their missions and make decisions.
