Quote from the [http://www.personal.psu.edu/rbc4/score.htm software home page] (11/2014): Here is a software tool that can translate written text summaries directly into proximity files (prx) that can be analyzed by [http://interlinkinc.net/KNOT.html Pathfinder KNOT]. It also generates text proposition files that can be imported by [http://cmap.ihmc.us/download/ CMAP Tools] to automatically form concept maps from the text. It should be of use to researchers who want to visualize "text" for various instructional and research-related reasons. Also it should work with different languages. ALA-Reader contains a rudimentary scoring system. Essentially, this tool converts the written summary into a cognitive map and then scores the cognitive map using an approach that we developed for scoring concept maps. The "score" produced is percent agreement with an expert referent. As I narrow down what algorithms work, then I plan to release updated versions periodically.  +
AntConc is a freeware concordance program for Windows, Macintosh OS X, and Linux. The software includes seven tools: Concordance Tool: shows search results in a 'KWIC' (KeyWord In Context) format. Concordance Plot Tool: shows search results plotted as a 'barcode' format. This allows you to see the position where search results appear in target texts. File View Tool: This tool shows the text of individual files. This allows you to investigate in more detail the results generated in other tools of AntConc. Clusters/N-Grams: hows clusters based on the search condition. In effect it summarizes the results generated in the Concordance Tool or Concordance Plot Tool. The N-Grams Tool, on the other hand, scans the entire corpus for 'N' (e.g. 1 word, 2 words, …) length clusters. This allows you to find common expressions in a corpus. Collocates: shows the collocates of a search term. This allows you to investigate non-sequential patterns in language. Word List: counts all the words in the corpus and presents them in an ordered list. This allows you to quickly find which words are the most frequent in a corpus. Keyword List: shows the which words are unusually frequent (or infrequent) in the corpus in comparison with the words in a reference corpus. This allows you to identify characteristic words in the corpus, for example, as part of a genre or ESP study.  +
According to the [http://mahout.apache.org/ home page] (oct 1 2014): The Apache Mahout™ project's goal is to build a scalable machine learning library. Quote: <span style="background-color:#eeeeee" class="citation">“Currently Mahout supports mainly three use cases: Recommendation mining takes users' behavior and from that tries to find items users might like. Clustering takes e.g. text documents and groups them into groups of topically related documents. Classification learns from exisiting categorized documents what documents of a specific category look like and is able to assign unlabelled documents to the (hopefully) correct category.”</span>  +
The Apache OpenNLP library is a machine learning based toolkit for the processing of natural language text. It supports the most common NLP tasks, such as tokenization, sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, named entity extraction, chunking, parsing, and coreference resolution. These tasks are usually required to build more advanced text processing services. OpenNLP also includes maximum entropy and perceptron based machine learning.  +

Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) is a component framework to analyze unstructured content such as text, audio and video. This is originally developed by IBM. UIMA enables applications to be decomposed into components, for example “language identification” => “language specific segmentation” => “sentence boundary detection” => Each component implements interfaces defined by the framework and provides self describing metadata via XML descriptor files. Also provides capabilities to wrap components as network services, and can scale to very large volumes by replicating processing pipelines over a cluster of networked nodes.  +

Cytoscape is an open source software platform for visualizing molecular interaction networks and biological pathways and integrating these networks with annotations, gene expression profiles and other state data. Although Cytoscape was originally designed for biological research, now it is a general platform for complex network analysis and visualization. Cytoscape core distribution provides a basic set of features for data integration, analysis, and visualization. Additional features are available as Apps (formerly called Plugins). Apps are available for network and molecular profiling analyses, new layouts, additional file format support, scripting, and connection with databases. They may be developed by anyone using the Cytoscape open API based on Java™ technology and App community development is encouraged. Most of the Apps are freely available from Cytoscape App Store.

'''DataMelt is a software environment for numeric calculations, statistics and data analysis ''' DataMelt, or DMelt, is an environment for numeric computation, data analysis and data visualization. DMelt is designed for analysis of large data volumes ("big data"), data mining, statistical analyses and math computations. The program can be used in many areas, such as natural sciences, engineering, modeling and analysis of financial markets. DMelt is a computational platform: It can be used with different programming languages on different operating systems. Unlike other statistical programs, DataMelt is not limited by a single programming language. Data analysis and statistical computations can be done using high-level scripting languages (Python/Jython, Groovy, etc.), as well as a lower-level language, such as JAVA. It incorporates many open-source JAVA packages into a coherent interface using the concept of dynamic scripting. DMelt creates high-quality vector-graphics images (SVG, EPS, PDF etc.) that can be included in LaTeX and other text-processing systems. The program runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS.  +
According to the official [http://vialab.science.uoit.ca/docuburst/help.php help page] (3(2014), DocuBurst is an online document visualization tool, and can be used for: * Uploading your own text documents * Creating interactive visual summaries of documents * Exploring keywords to uncover document themes or topics * Investigating intra-document word patterns, such as character relationships * Comparing documents * Commenting, annotating and sharing visualizations with others  +
The Dragon Toolkit is a Java-based development package for academic use in information retrieval (IR) and text mining (TM, including text classification, text clustering, text summarization, and topic modeling). It is tailored for researchers who work on large-scale IR and TM and prefer Java programming. Moreover, different from Lucene and Lemur, it provides built-in supports for semantic-based IR and TM. The dragon toolkit seamlessly integrates a set of NLP tools, which enable the toolkit to index text collections with various representation schemes including words, phrases, ontology-based concepts and relationships.

Quote from the [http://radimrehurek.com/gensim/about.html about page] (12/2016): Gensim started off as a collection of various Python scripts for the Czech Digital Mathematics Library dml.cz in 2008, where it served to generate a short list of the most similar articles to a given article (gensim = “generate similar”). I also wanted to try these fancy “Latent Semantic Methods”, but the libraries that realized the necessary computation were not much fun to work with. By now, gensim is—to my knowledge—the most robust, efficient and hassle-free piece of software to realize unsupervised semantic modelling from plain text. It stands in contrast to brittle homework-assignment-implementations that do not scale on one hand, and robust java-esque projects that take forever just to run “hello world”.  +

GISMO is a graphical interactive monitoring tool that provides visualization of students' activities in online courses to instructors. Instructors can examine various aspects of distance students, such as the attendance to courses, reading of materials, submission of assignments. Users of Moodle may benefit from GISMO for their teaching activities. With respect to the standard reports provided by Moodle (which basically allow teachers to see if an individual student has viewed a specific resource or participated on a specific activity on a specific day), GISMO provides comprehensive visualizations that gives an overview of the whole class, not only a specific student or a particular resource. GISMO is available for Moodle 1.9.x. and Moodle 2.x.  +
