Another AlchemyAPI release is upon us.  This is a maintenance release contains a variety
of enhancements:

Increased Precision - Named Entity Extraction now features increased precision for all English-language content.  This means fewer false positives & more accurate results.  Recall has also been increased, meaning you’ll get more named entities when submitting content.  These updates will roll out to our other supported languages over the next two weeks.

Disambiguation - Named entity disambiguation coverage has been greatly expanded; AlchemyAPI’s disambiguation database has more than doubled in size, providing much greater coverage for non-USA locations, persons, organizations, and more.  We’ve also increased disambiguation accuracy, meaning more accurate results when processing ambiguous texts.

Web Page Cleaning - AlchemyAPI’s text extraction / web page cleaning APIs have been updated; Text extraction now operates with increased precision, especially for Blogs and other non-News content types.

AlchemyAPI is among the most accurate and highest performance content analysis APIs in the industry.  This release is part of our continued commitment to advancing text analysis precision, recall, and performance. We have more exciting AlchemyAPI news & feature enhancements planned for the month of October.  Stay tuned!
