Hi
I am a moderator on a forum focusing on Oncology (Cancer Specialties). We are in the process of moving to Drupal 7 based web site.
One of the key features that we are looking for is Oncology News. However, given the huge number of publications/blog posts/ Twitter Feeds, we are in a fix because the volume of information to be aggregated is huge.
I am looking for :
1) Some solution to parse these feeds, categorize them automatically, analyze the context in the text of the feeds (usually abstracts delivered in the feeds), and extract tag clouds.
2) These tags then may then be analyzed how they are linked to each other.
3) The most relevant paper (abstract/blog post) should then be able to bubble up to the top of the pile (and show as related posts).
4) We have implemented a system of rewarding the users with points so an element of human curation would be available to the most relevant posts in the proper category..essentially to rate the articles which have "bubbled up to the top". The idea is that the users avoid the huge volume of overload.
Is there any module in Drupal for this? (I dont have a programming background- I am an Oncologist by profession).
Thanks in advance!

You can do this with a combination of Feeds or FeedAPI and some auto-tagging modules, but you'll probably need some custom programming as well.
http://drupal.org/project/feeds http://drupal.org/project/feedapi
http://drupal.org/project/autocategorise http://drupal.org/project/autotag http://drupal.org/project/autotagging http://drupal.org/project/extractor http://drupal.org/project/tagging http://drupal.org/project/yahoo_terms
These tags then may then be analyzed how they are linked to each other.

In addition to the great list of modules provided by Ted, you may want to look at Tattler, a Drupal-built monitoring tool developed by Phase2 that allows a user to easily filter, organize and share content gathered from the Web.
It's still in Beta, but I suppose it's pretty stable for production sites.

Thanks a ton Guys!!! Can't thank you enough.
We are in the process of sifting through the content and facing unique issues; but it's not related to Drupal per se. I'd report the experience with this. Apologies for delayed reply; the professional commitments take a huge chunk of time.
Cheers!
