Abstract

As the amount of data grows very fast inside and outside of an enterprise, it is getting important to seamlessly analyze both data types for total business intelligence. The data can be classified into two categories: structured and unstructured. For getting total business intelligence, it is important to seamlessly analyze both of them. Especially, as most of business data are unstructured text documents, including the Web pages in Internet, we need a Text OLAP solution to perform multidimensional analysis of text documents in the same way as structured relational data. We first survey the representative works selected for demonstrating how the technologies of text mining and information retrieval can be applied for multidimensional analysis of text documents, because they are major technologies handling text data. And then, we survey the representative works selected for demonstrating how we can associate and consolidate both unstructured text documents and structured relation data for obtaining total business intelligence. Finally, we present a future business intelligence platform architecture as well as related research topics. We expect the proposed total heterogeneous business intelligence architecture, which integrates information retrieval, text mining, and information extraction technologies all together, including relational OLAP technologies, would make a better platform toward total business intelligence.
