Abstract—This paper considers the task of semantic innovation (new idea or trend) detection possibility in corporate information field applying the analysis of dynamic changes in enterprise information flows. Here we consider such hypothesis that the sign of innovation appearance is the dramatic increase of new terminology employment (that has occurred rarely or has not been used at all), or the appearance of previously not occurred combinations of old “terms” (words) and “N-grams” (sequences of words). Presented results of this experiment are based on ENRON, TREC2005 databases, email exchange among employees of Russian company. We have overseen conditions under which the innovation detection is statistically significant and made the conclusion about the future of above-listed hypothesis of innovation detection.
