DESCRIPTION:Click for Latest Location Information: http://unstructured2012.dataversity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=69&proposalid=4690\nAre you a U.S. Federal Government Agency or Private Sector Company about to embark on a large-scale data integration and business analytics initiative where you need to integrate data from multiple different data sources? Do you have vast amounts of unstructured data with valuable information in it that is not accessible to your users? Do you want to make that unstructured data accessible and drive your organization from a "reactive" data state to a "proactive" data state? How do you ensure the data is integrated accurately based on the business requirements of a new system while ensuring legacy business and data processes are not omitted in the new system requirements? These are just some of the challenges that face IT professionals and project managers who work on data integration initiatives on a daily basis.\nRegardless of Industry, imagine a technology solution that allows you to "Fuse" structured and unstructured data together by "connecting the dots", storing integrated data and providing a set of proactive signal detection alerts to users that "push" data to them. In the post 9/11 Federal Government world, many large scale Government systems integration efforts have had very public failures or delays due to the lack of attention paid to a data integration effort. Whether you are a US Intelligence Agency, Homeland Security, or Law Enforcement organization aiming to combat terrorism, money laundering, or other fraudulent activities, to a Private Sector company such as Automotive, Manufacturing, Financial Services or Energy sector organization looking to increase your customer information dynamics or increase sales, having an extensible technology platform can be achieved. \nLearn how the early focus on building blocks of data services such as Information Extraction, Entity Resolution, Data Integration, and Signal Detection via Complex Event Processing (CEP) is leading to collaboration and the successful implementation of a large scale Government system. This session will address:\n\nThe challenges faced in the U.S. Federal Government & Private Sector to implement large-scale data integration programs on time and on budget\nDetail a Data Fusion Framework step-by-step with technology services that can be implemented in phased approaches immediately\nExplain and discuss approaches to test and develop Information Extraction (Entity and Relationship Extraction), Entity Resolution and Data Integration approaches with Signal Detection Alerting mechanisms\nDiscuss lessons learned that can be applied to Government, and the private industry for a successful data integration effort
