The National Centre for Text Mining (NaCTeM) is a publicly funded text mining (TM) centre. It was established to provide support, advice, and information on TM technologies and to disseminate information from the larger TM community, while also providing tailored services and tools in response to the requirements of the United Kingdom academic community.
The software tools and services which NaCTeM supplies allow researchers to apply text mining techniques to problems within their specific areas of interest - examples of these tools are highlighted below. In addition to providing services, the Centre is also involved in, and makes significant contributions to, the text mining research community both nationally and internationally in initiatives such as Europe PubMed Central.
The Centre is located in the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology and is operated and organized by the University of Manchester School of Computer Science. NaCTeM contributes expertise in information extraction, natural language processing and parallel and distributed data mining systems in biomedical and clinical applications.
