A Project has default toolsets, worksets and results.
A workset is a set of documents of interest, created by searching for documents and saving the document list. A toolset is a workflow that allows users to search, browse, explore or do analytical queries. Results are created by the analytical processes (such as Naive Bayes and Decision Tree algorithms) that run asynchronously and (depending on the size of the workset) may take a long time to finish.
Default Toolsets have been prepared by MONK as workflows that can be used "as is." For a description of the functionality of each Default Toolset, place your mouse over the icon for that toolset. While Default Toolsets are pre-defined by MONK, advanced users can add more tools to a Default Toolset, or create completely new toolsets. These toolsets are covered in the tutorials.
