<p>Analytics is a dynamic tool that can dramatically enhance workflow in Relativity and contribute to substantial time and cost savings. This article aims to outline tactics that save time but do not require significant time or resource investments. </p>
<p>The Analytics platform can greatly improve workflow within Relativity.&nbsp; It can be used to increase review efficiency, quickly isolate highly responsive or unresponsive documents and prioritize the review of particularly relevant documents.&nbsp; </p>
<p>The underlying technology behind Relativity Analytics is <strong>LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing</strong>).&nbsp; This proprietary technology was originally developed for the U.S. Intelligence Community by the Content Analyst Company to offer conceptual analysis and organization for large repositories of unstructured data.&nbsp; In general terms LSI is a math-based approach to text analytics that uses algorithms to organize text into a three-dimensional vector space.&nbsp; The proximity of the text in this space is used to identify conceptual relationships among the indexed terms and documents.&nbsp; It does not rely on external sources to classify the text; instead, it relies solely on the patterns and relationships identified when the data is indexed.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
<p><strong>Conceptual Searching (CA Search)</strong><br />
    Unlike traditional keyword searching, CA search results will yield conceptually similar documents based on the conceptual correlation of search terms to other indexed terms.&nbsp; CA search will find documents that would not have otherwise been identified using traditional keyword searching.&nbsp; Simply put, concept searching can be used to find documents related to a known term or phrase that do not necessarily contain the exact term or phrase.&nbsp; We have found this type of searching to be a tremendous benefit to our clients, aiding in identifying responsive or privileged documents that would not have been found with keyword searching.</p>
<p>We have used CA search to identify top priority documents to be batched for immediate review.&nbsp; This is particularly useful when dealing with very large data sets. For example, we recently had a project that consisted of over 11 million records with very tight discovery deadlines.&nbsp; Traditional linear document review simply was not an option for this team.&nbsp; With CA search, we were able target the most conceptually relevant documents in the database and create concept-focused priority review batches within several hours of the data being loaded into Relativity.</p>
<p><strong>Finding Similar Documents </strong><br />
    The &ldquo;Find Similar Documents&rdquo; feature can easily be used on-the-fly in Relativity from both the viewer and text modes.&nbsp; This feature is used to return conceptually correlated documents based on the full text of an entire document.&nbsp; It helps users quickly return a set of highly conceptually similar documents to the key responsive and/or non-responsive documents at hand.&nbsp; We have successfully used this feature to locate groups of non-responsive, potentially privileged and extremely relevant documents, facilitating a more targeted approach to review.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
<p>In one of our recent projects, we successfully used the &ldquo;Find Similar Documents&rdquo; feature to quickly identify a large number of spam emails prior to batching the documents for review.&nbsp; This process resulted in our client reviewing 30 percent fewer documents and contributed to great time and cost savings. </p>
<p><strong>Conceptual Near-Duplicate Detection</strong><br />
    The ability to quickly identify conceptual near-duplicates is now common practice in Relativity databases when Analytics is enabled. Near-duplicate detection is based on conceptual similarity rather than relying on exact text and metadata matches.&nbsp; Near-duplicate groupings can be integrated with advanced searching and automated batching in Relativity, as needed.&nbsp; </p>
<p>In practice, we have found that the identification of near-duplicates is particularly useful when MD5 values are not available to identify exact duplicates.&nbsp; We were able to apply this technology in a recent project on a set of newly loaded third party data.&nbsp; After identifying the conceptual near-duplicates we found that nearly 40 percent of the records had near-duplicates already coded in the database. &nbsp;The client was then able to leverage their prior coding to more efficiently code the new data, resulting in improved efficiency and significant cost savings. </p>
<p>Even in cases where MD5 hash duplicates are available, the addition of conceptual near-duplicates can improve review workflow.&nbsp; Near-duplicates can aid in identifying potentially privileged documents to be flagged for a second-level privileged review.&nbsp; Additionally, they can be useful when spot-checking coding consistency across documents.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
<p><strong>Clustering </strong><br />
    Clustering is a mass operation that automatically groups conceptually correlated documents into virtual folders displayed by topic.&nbsp; Users are not required to define a set of exemplar documents upfront.&nbsp; We frequently use clustering in conjunction with batching to generate conceptually similar review batches, aiding in review efficiency. </p>
<p>In a recent project clustering was applied to the full database consisting of around 80,000 records.&nbsp; It took less than one hour for clustering to complete in Relativity.&nbsp; The results allowed our client to quickly determine that around 45 percent of the documents were not relevant or eligible for review.&nbsp; The non-relevant documents were then moved to a secure folder, allowing our client to focus on only the potentially relevant documents. This example clearly demonstrates the vast cost and time saving benefits associated with clustering. </p>
<p>Analytics is a versatile tool that can enhance workflow in Relativity and contribute to substantial time and cost savings.&nbsp; Furthermore, the features outlined above do not require significant time or resource investments. Our clients have had noted success using Analytics to isolate priority documents for immediate review, locate highly responsive or unresponsive data, and improve overall coding efficiency with the use of clustering and near-duplicate identification. </p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Thorough Overview of Random Sampling Helps Users Understand Best Practices and Basic Concepts</em></p>
<p><strong>ELMSFORD, N.Y. – JUNE 13, 2012 </strong> – Planet Data, a global innovator in the creation and development of defensible legal ediscovery technologies, services and solutions, today announced the availability of a new white paper. The research and content addresses a common query on the topic of predictive coding about how users can best employ random sampling techniques for validation purposes.</p>
<p>Readers of the white paper will gain a thorough understanding on how to use random sampling to achieve reasonable results and how to employ a complete and integrated process to identify documents.</p>
<p>As &#8216;random events&#8217; are often unpredictable in nature, the concept of random sampling has plenty of skeptics. Users will benefit from reading the white paper to gather information on how to use sampling for a defensible and reasonable litigation strategy. The white paper also discusses important concepts that will help mitigate skepticism of random sampling by explaining how to use the right techniques for everyday practice.</p>
<p></p>
<p>In addition, the paper examines the application of confidence levels and intervals, particularly in terms of what to measure and how to build a sound and defensible document review strategy based on those values.</p>
<p></p>
<p>&#8220;In my discussions with clients and other practitioners it became clear that there is a wide range of understanding and opinions about how to best employ random sampling techniques for validation purposes,&#8221; said Michael Wade, Planet Data EVP and CTO. &#8220;This paper will address fundamental aspects of random sampling to help users understand the basic concepts, and better utilize these techniques.&#8221; </p>

<p><strong>ELMSFORD, N.Y. – JANUARY 24th, 2012</strong> – Planet Data, a global innovator in the creation and development of defensible legal technologies, services and solutions, today announced that the company has received the SSAE16 Type II (Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 16) certification, awarded by the American Institute of certified public accountants (AICPA).
 </p>
<p>
To achieve the SSAE 16 Type II certification Planet Data was reviewed by audit, risk, and control oriented professionals who have experience in accounting, auditing, and information security. These credentials, and independent validation from the AICPA, demonstrate that Planet Data is committed to providing clients the utmost assurance that their data is secure.  Planet Data has been SAS70 II certified since 2009.
 </p>
<p>
&#8220;The SSAE 16 Type II certification is not a standard or common certification in the eDiscovery industry. The certification is proof of our commitment to go beyond industry standards to provide the best security and services for our clients,&#8221; said David Cochran, Planet Data EVP and COO.
</p>
<p>
Michael Wade, Planet Data EVP and CTO states, “To achieve the SSAE 16 Type II status we have been thoroughly evaluated and audited by an independent party, the AICPA. With this certification, and independent validation, clients are completely assured of the effectiveness of Planet Data’s internal controls and data security safeguards.”
 </p>
<p>
Currently, eDiscovery vendors must contend with immense quantities of client data and they need to be able to prove to clients that they are equipped to manage this information with the correct security measures. As the SSAE 16 Type II certification is independent, third party validation, that requires a thorough and rigorous auditing process it is one of the most effective ways to prove this.
 </p>
<p>
The SSAE 16, which effectively replaces SAS 70, was drafted with the purpose of updating the U.S. service organization reporting standard so that it is in line with the new international service organization reporting standard.
</p>

		<description><![CDATA[New Enhancements Improve Efficiency, Cost Savings and Quality]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>New Enhancements Improve Efficiency, Cost Savings and Quality</h2>
<p><strong><br />
ELMSFORD, N.Y. – December 14, 2011</strong> – Planet Data, a global innovator in the creation and development of defensible legal technologies, services and solutions, today announced the latest version of their proprietary early cost assessment eDiscovery platform, Exego3. The new tools and enhancements to existing tools allow users to save on cost and improve efficiency through asynchronous searching, advanced metadata search techniques and by validating results through random sampling.</p>
<p>&#8220;Today, there is a lack of clarity about how to successfully navigate the eDiscovery process and the pricing assimilated with eDiscovery technology,&#8221; said Howard Reissner, Esq., CEO of Planet Data. &#8220;The market is demanding cost efficiency, better quality search results and a quicker turnaround from eDiscovery vendors. Through our enhancements revealed in Exego3 we have delivered on all fronts. Users will save time, money and improve the quality of searches. Planet Data is constantly evolving our technology to stay ahead of the industry and market needs.&#8221;<br />
Key updates to Exego3 include:</p>
<p><strong>Asynchronous Searching</strong><br />
Users can work uninterrupted significantly increasing efficiency &#8211; while one or more searches runs in parallel. The focus remains on the iterative process of improving search terms and understanding the data.</p>
<p>All query results are stored, allowing instant access at any time without the need to rerun searches. Users can return to a search at a later time and quickly recall the results of previously run queries. In addition, the end user can instantly jump between the outcomes of different queries to compare results.</p>
<p><strong>Enhanced Meta Data Search Tools</strong><br />
Understanding the metadata in a set of documents is central to understanding the contents of the document collection, however, searching on metadata fields tends to be complex and frequently results in many false positives. This new feature allows easy construction of queries across large numbers of metadata fields, or to exclude unwanted fields, to reduce false positives or hone in on very specific metadata fields.</p>
<p><strong>Validation Through Random Sampling</strong><br />
This critical feature not only allows the user to sample against non-responsive documents, but to also apply sampling techniques to quantify the effectiveness of search terms very early in the case. Sampling will ensure that no stone is left unturned and that there are no unknown variations of concepts due to lack of knowledge or an inadequate search strategy.</p>
<p>Combining Exego concept based search technology with this new feature gives the ediscovery team complete assurance that the review is thorough and efficient.</p>
