ARRIA NLG plc is a software development business. Its target is to be the global leader in the development and deployment of mission critical, core industrial, enterprise level Natural Language Generation software technologies. Natural Language Generation (NLG) is the computerised process of analysing and converting Big Data into actionable information.

The Group's core product is known as the Arria NLG Engine.

Global corporations are having to deal with an ever-growing amount of data resulting from the digitisation of transactions and industrial processes and from technological advancements in data capture. Computer networks are now producing and storing digital data at such a rate that this data is becoming increasingly difficult to be fully utilised. This development and the challenge to make optimal use of this data has become known as "Big Data".

The market opportunity for the Arria NLG Engine has grown substantially through the emergence of the Big Data phenomenon.

The Arria NLG Engine is a form of artificial intelligence, specialised in communicating information which is extracted from complex data sources in natural language (i.e. as if written by a human).

The Arria NLG Engine comprises of two main elements:
•an analytics component that is programmed to embody the expert knowledge of the domain in which it operates; and
•a natural language generation component, which embodies the skill required to communicate information articulately using natural language.


This combination of analytics and natural language generation means it can be used to automatically generate written reports in potentially any language for any audience that reads as if written by a person expert in their field. The Directors believe that the Arria NLG Engine provides value where many Big Data analytical tools are limited at the human-machine interface, being the point at which analytic results are communicated to humans.

The Arria NLG Engine automatically communicates results, not in numbers or graphics that may require further analysis and explanation, but in narratives that are designed to read as if written by a human expert. Although it is early days for the Group’s business, its technology is already deployed in a mission critical environment, monitoring large scale industrial machinery located on oil and gas production platforms in deepwater Gulf of Mexico for a major global oil and gas company and at a government national weather service.

The scientific foundation for the Arria NLG Engine has been developed over the past four years, but is based on more than 20 years of research and knowledge gained by the Data2Text Founders at the University of Aberdeen.

In 2009, the University of Aberdeen, Prof. Ehud Reiter, Dr. Yaji Shripada, Ian Davy and John Perry formed Data2Text Limited to develop and commercialise various NLG technologies.

Since 2009, the Data2Text science and technology team has continued to develop the commercial potential of its NLG software technologies culminating in the Arria NLG Engine.

Arria has been working with Data2Text since May 2012 when it acquired a 20 per cent. interest in Data2Text and was granted an option to acquire the remaining 80 per cent. On 25 October 2013 Arria acquired the remaining 80 per cent. of Data2Text.

qui sait?

The fall seems to have stopped, with investors buying in.

Buyers were appearing at the 160p price at closing time

looks like tomorrow the price should start the upward move again.

today was consolidation ( or tag of war ) where buyers are subdue by the last sellers of the pack as the price improved.

I see it climbed to 165p today. In this one for the long term

And that was the point where the last sellers of the pack sold as the bid improved

been lookin, but obviously in the wrong place. where can i find an application form for the Rossly IPO? or as a PI can't i take part in this IPO.

For Amati, Rosslyn Analytics represents one of the most innovative and exciting prospects in this market by giving organisations accessible tools to provide sophisticated analysis of large and complex data sets,” said Dr Paul Jourdan, CEO, Amati Global Investors. “We have been impressed not just by Rosslyn’s product offering, but also by the way in which the company has been able to engage effectively with some very significant corporate customers and partners.”

“Good data is no longer good enough,” said Charles Clark, CEO, Rosslyn Analytics. “At Rosslyn, we’re addressing the critical requirement of supporting leading organisations to make strategic decisions, by enabling them to integrate and transform their raw and dirty data that resides in multiple systems into a foundation of increasingly valuable information. This disruptive technology is enabling companies to unlock the hidden value in their data, uncover new and valuable insights and accelerate innovation. The ability to rapidly integrate and connect data from multiple sources is a new frontier in enterprise analytics and Rosslyn is leading it.”

Thanks DC, i take it as it has been postponed until 2014 then IPO details will be released a bit nearer the time. Would hate to miss an opportunity if it is half as good as NLG was.

SP 140p down another 11% on low volume

In shares - with just two clients, minimal revenues and cash outflows, Arria may be in the fierce glare of the public markets gaze too early. It must now deliver and any disappointments could prompt a backlash.

More buys than sells and yet share price down, market makers are widening the price to cover their backside as the headline index is firmly lower.
I will keep a watch as is progressing

The market cap- to-sales multiple of nearly 1000 times. As shares states that is an enormous amount of faith to put into such a young company.

Has finally decided to move forward on news so I bought a few ........

Launch of NLG Engine 3.0



Arria NLG plc (AIM: NLG), a leader in the development and deployment of Natural Language Generation ("NLG") technologies, announces the release of the Arria NLG Engine 3.0. This latest version of Arria's NLG engine has the ability to integrate graphical information derived from big data sources with the existing NLG reporting capabilities to provide even more effective decision-support.

Feedback from Arria's clients highlighted the considerable value of embedding NLG generated alerts into a graphical interface environment in real time. As a result of this tight integration, reports produced by the new Arria NLG 3.0 engine support faster, more effective decision-making in high intensity operational environments.

Scientific research on intensive care units conducted by the founding scientists of Arria at the University of Aberdeen (between 2006 and 2010) concluded that medical staff made better decisions when presented with reports that include a combination of text and graphics.

The findings of that research have resulted in these capabilities being translated for use in the Oil and Gas industry. When an equipment alert signals the existence of a problem, the combination of text and annotated graphics makes it easier and quicker for an engineer to understand what the condition of that equipment is and to make the right decision at the right time.

Arria currently has several patents pending in relation to the Arria NLG Engine 3.0.

Professor Ehud Reiter, Chief Scientist of Arria commented:

"Our research shows that in a decision-support context, some types of information are best presented via graphics and some types via text, with the effectiveness of each modality being dependent upon context such as the expertise of the user and the fault in question.



"The new capabilities of the Arria NLG Engine allow Arria systems to present information in a combination of text and graphics, using the optimal modality. The configurability allows the intelligent optimisation of modalities to be externally specified by domain experts. This more effective information presentation leads to better and quicker decision making."

Arria to release new Data Science Framework software at co-hosted Pumps and Pipes event in Houston



Arria NLG plc (AIM: NLG), a leader in the development and deployment of Natural Language Generation ("NLG") technologies, announces it will co-host a special Data Science event in Houston on April 30, 2014, where Chief Scientist Professor Ehud Reiter will release novel Data Science Framework software that provides improved knowledge capture of subject matter expertise into artificial intelligence software. Pumps and Pipes, who are co-hosting the event with Arria, is a unique Houston-based technology interchange between the Oil and Gas, Medicine and Aerospace industries. The event will be attended by both oil and gas engineers and medical clinicians, the two professions that will be the first to benefit from the new software.

The Arria NLG Engine is a cutting-edge technology that works with big data sets and disparate structured data to generate natural language narratives that support faster and higher quality expert decision-making. Initial applications of the technology that are already live include an on-demand site-specific UK weather reporting service as well as oil and gas facilities surveillance in the Gulf of Mexico. Arria's new Data Science Framework enhances these solutions by allowing for easier connection to disparate big data sets, higher quality analytics, and faster knowledge capture of subject matter expertise into operational software.

Professor Reiter says Arria's Data Science Framework has arisen from requests from both engineers and doctors who want to fill the gap in the big data industry by streamlining the twin processes of capturing the knowledge of their subject matter experts and applying this knowledge to make sense of multiple data streams. "We hear the same message from Chief Petroleum Engineers in the Middle East as we do from cardiovascular surgeons in the USA: subject matter expertise is their most valued asset. So by reducing the time it takes to capture this expertise and the time it takes to make sense of the data, our new Data Science Framework speeds up the development of applications that automate insights and generate narratives, adding an unprecedented capability for faster and higher quality decision support."

Professor Reiter, who co-wrote the definitive book on building Natural Language Generation systems in the 1990s with his Arria colleague, Dr Robert Dale, says, "When you look at what else is out there in both medicine and oil and gas, the only significant contender we keep bumping up against is IBM Watson. But IBM Watson is a very expensive product that aims to provide a universal solution to the general problem of answering questions, whereas our goal is to help doctors and engineers make faster and higher quality decisions by giving them natural language explanations of what's going on. We go beyond answering questions to tell the stories that are hidden in the data."

Alan Lumsden, founder of Pumps and Pipes, Professor & Chairman Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Medical Director Methodist DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center at the Methodist Hospital in Houston, says "We are delighted to have Professor Reiter speaking at a Pumps and Pipes event where our motto is 'the solution to my problem is in someone else's toolkit'. I have had a look inside Arria's toolkit and I'm sure if our members can unlock the value hidden in our data the Arria way our industries will be transformed. Data Science is the new frontier and I'm convinced, one day we will look back and wonder how we ever functioned without natural language generation technology assisting our decision-making."
