The KAPS Group is a network of consultants with expertise in creating a complete and integrated semantic infrastructure for large and small enterprises.  We represent a broad range of expertise in a variety of areas, and, in addition, have contacts throughout the information retrieval and knowledge management communities, enabling us to put together the right solution for you.

Our current focus is on using text analytics to both create a semantic infrastructure and a broad range of applications built on top of that semantic infrastructure.

The Practical and the Theoretical. We approach the practical application of text analytics intranets, search, portals, collaboration, and content management from a strong cognitive science and deep knowledge architecture perspective, thereby placing those infrastructure software applications within a powerful semantic infrastructure.

At the same time, we ground knowledge management in a real business results environment by focusing on enhancing employee activities and measuring the performance gain.

The KAPS Group is headed up by Tom Reamy (Chief Knowledge Architect and author).  Some of the areas of expertise that we utilize in the creation of an intellectual infrastructure are:

• Text Analytics (categorization, extraction)
• Sentiment Analysis & Voice of the Customer
