Squirro 3.3.4 - Release Notes

Features

  • New Feed Dataloader: RSS Feed Dataloader was reworked providing now more metadata from the RSS feeds to be mapped to facets and removing an issue where duplication of items happened.

  • Allow iframe embedding of mobile dashboards.

  • Make ground truth item endpoint sub-item ready. (Limit of 10 sub-items for returning all sub-items. If there are more sub-items, only the highlighted pages will be returned).

  • Powerful Transformers models: By upgrading the transformers library to 4.6.1, we now leverage transformer pipelines and use high-performing pretrained sentiment models to extract better sentiment results from text data.

  • For sentiment analysis, there is now an option to switch between using transformer-based pretrained models like ´finbert´ and ´distilbert´. For details about how to use it, follow the Squirro lib/nlp documentation here.

  • Improve toast duration for subscribing and unsubscribing communities from 4s to 2s.

  • Expose community ID to newsletters.

  • Apply highlighting to titles in all item details.

  • Added "label status" filtering to the Ground Truth labeling list and focus view.

  • Introducing a new flag get_body_by_id to directly add the body of an item by submitting the item_id for document-level ground truth labeling.

  • Expose community query to the JINJA template of the newsletters.

  • Introduction of additional filter options in ground truth labeling process, which allow the user to see all the labeled or not yet labeled elements of a candidate set.

  • Enable PDF viewer while labeling document-level ground truths.

  • Add a direct link to communities in newsletters.

  • Add the ability to apply document-level AI models on PDF documents.

  • Release 3.3.3 introduced improved performance/throughput of the Pipelet-Step through parallelised mini-batching. That change broke the capability of pipelets to work with projects having numeric or datetime facets. This has been fixed now in this release.
