Program: Autocategorization is a
computer-assisted method of applying metadata to files using a variety of
techniques including simple if/then logic, text analytics, and sophisticated
statistical analysis. In layman’s terms, that means uploading a file to a
system and having metadata fields like subject, department, and author
automatically applied without a human indexer having to lift a finger. Sounds
great, right? But is autocategorization all it’s cracked up to be? In
this presentation, we’ll take a look at the latest in autocategorization
tools—what they are, how they work, and some of their pros and cons. We’ll also
explore related tools like taxonomy management systems and how they fit into
the picture. After diving into some examples, we’ll outline high-level selection
criteria to consider if you’re in the market for an autocategorization tool.
Finally, we’ll conclude with a group discussion on how autocategorization and
other taxonomy-related systems fit into the records and information management
landscape.
