Abstract

Several Networks of Excellence have been set up in the framework of the European FP5 research program. Among these Networks of Excellence, the NEMIS project focuses on the field of Text Mining. Within this field, document processing and visualization was identified as one of the key topics and the WG1 working group was created in the NEMIS project, to carry out a detailed survey of techniques associated with the text mining process and to identify the relevant research topics in related research areas. In this document we present the results of this comprehensive survey. The report includes a description of the current state-of-the-art and practice, a roadmap for follow-up research in the identified areas, and recommendations for anticipated technological development in the domain of text mining.
