What is IDOL OnDemand?

IDOL OnDemand is a set of APIs for functions similar to IDOL. Currently, over 30 functions out of IDOL 500 functions are available via REST APIs…. more to come!

IDOL OnDemand is an API platform to access, understand and analyse Human Information.

What is IDOL?

IDOL is a contextual and conceptual Information Analytics engine, it uses both pre-defined concepts, contextual information comparison to understand and analyse Human Information, based on machine learning to train the core engine.

What is Indexing?

Indexing in short is used to access documents superfast, it creates index files or pointers from the documents, with basic summary and meta data information.

Documents can be indexed no matter where they are physically located, on your phone, public websites, the cloud, your sharepoint, the intranet, etc.

Once indexed, all analysis and search functions can run against a private index of your documents.

IDOL OnDemand has also created public indexes that are available to anyone out of the box, like the News, Wikipedia, US Patents, and the CIA World Factbook.



Some examples of APIs

- Find Similar documents

- Sentiment Analysis

- Entity Extraction

- OCR

- View Document

- Find Related Concepts

- Get Parametric Values

- Language Identification

Public Indexes

IDOL OnDemand has created public indexes that are available to anyone, like the News, Wikipedia, US Patents, and the CIA World Factbook.

Entities

You can extract entities from text to identify concepts and structure in your text. Examples of entities you can extract:

- People, Places, Companies, Organizations, Languages, Drugs, Professions, Universities, Addresses, Phone Numbers, PII, Dates, Credit Card numbers, Social Security Numbers, License Plates, Drivers License, and Bank Accounts.

We are super interested to find out what entities Legal Hackers are looking for in documents, because we can ‘easily’ add these to train our engine to extract from documents. Please post requests for entities on our Ideas forum at https://community.idolondemand.com

Conceptual and Contextual Search

IDOL OnDemand lets you find the concepts that documents are most related to, helpful for faceted search and clustering.

Use Find Related Concepts and Get Parametric Values APIs are useful to discover the concepts and topics in your documents.

Use the Find Similar API to discover documents similar to a document.

Use Entity Extraction to extract predefined entities in your documents.



Code Example

This JavaScript example uses a simple Client SDK to make coding with IDOL OnDemand super easy.

You can find the full source code including examples this Github:

https://github.com/HP-IDOL-OnDemand/javascript-workshop

To extract entities like Companies or Drugs from a document, simply write this code:

// inputType can be ‘text’,’file’,’reference’ or ‘url’, inputValue is the actual input document in format inputType

function extractEntities(inputType, inputValue, entities){

var iodClient = new IODClient();

var iodRequest = iodClient.createIODRequest(IOD.API_ENTITY_EXTRACTION);

var params = new Array();

var param1 = {key: inputType, value: inputValue};

params.push(param1);

$(entities).each(function(i) {

var param2 = {key: "entity_type", value: entities[i]};

params.push(param2);

});

iodRequest.setParams(params);

iodRequest.post(entityExtraction_Callback);

}
