One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Medical Research: Cognition Launches Semantic Medline(TM)

LOS ANGELES, CA, Jul 23 (MARKET WIRE) --
Cognition Technologies, a next-generation Semantic Natural Language
Processing (NLP) company, announces a quantum improvement in the
application of NLP technology with the introduction of Semantic
MEDLINE(TM) -- the 18 million article abstract database of complex health
information published by the National Library of Medicine. This new free
service at www.SemanticMEDLINE.com enables complex health and life
science material to be rapidly and efficiently discovered with greater
precision and completeness. This marks the first time that users can
employ a natural, conversational sentence structure to find the most
complex studies within the MEDLINE dataset.

SemanticMEDLINE is powered by Cognition's Semantic NLP(TM) technology,
which incorporates word and phrase knowledge to comprehend the meaning and
nuances of the English language. Cognition's Semantic Map, the most
complete and comprehensive available today, enables the Search process to
be based on meaning, rather than statistical word pattern matching, and
therefore returns more complete and relevant results.

"Cognition's Semantic NLP is the first and only technology to combine all
of the key linguistic elements to unravel the complexity of language and
optimize semantic understanding of ambiguous content. The foundation
behind this capability is our comprehensive Semantic Map of the English
language," said Scott Jarus, CEO of Cognition Technologies.
"SemanticMEDLINE's results are far more comprehensive and thorough when
compared with Pubmed's native Search results because of two unique
capabilities: an understanding of synonymy and the ability to understand
meaning and context reasoning."

With traditional keyword search engines, such as those used by Google,
Yahoo! and others, finding the best medical research document within
complex datasets, such as MEDLINE, is very difficult to obtain without the
use of complex Boolean equations and a deep understanding of the many
permutations of technical synonymy. Cognition's Semantic MEDLINE has the
ability to target and locate these types of data that are otherwise hidden
in masses of information because of its comprehensive Semantic Map
(particularly deep within the health sciences discipline) and its unique
ability to "understand" the meaning behind words, phrases and idioms.

"Cognition's SemanticMEDLINE.com is a new important tool for researchers
in the medical and biotech community," said Dr. Betsy Goldsmith,
Professor of Biochemistry at UT Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas.
"Cognition's MEDLINE Search capabilities save users hours hunting for
desired documents within complex content. It is helpful in conducting
complex research, planning experiments, grant creation and writing
technical papers." Dr. Goldsmith is a collaborative developer of
Cognition's SemanticMEDLINE through a sponsored grant provided by
Cognition Technologies.

About Cognition:

Cognition Technologies, based in Los Angeles, has developed a
revolutionary Semantic Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology which
adds word and phrase meaning and "understanding" to computer
applications, enabling them to be more human-like in their processing of
information. Cognition's Semantic Map, the underlying technology
developed over the past 23 years, is the largest and most extensive in
existence. Applications and technologies which utilize Cognition's
Semantic NLP(TM) technology are positioned to take full advantage of Web
3.0 (the Semantic Web).
