Hi there -

I'm just new to Apache PredictionIO, and was exploring its abilities. Though 
I'm sure it is possible but I couldn't find an engine template for a use case 
like below:

Use case:
I've a set of searchable contract documents (RFPs) in a repository. The task is 
to compare all these documents on certain attributes (aka, field names; the 
field names could be mentioned differently in these documents but semantically 
they are the same in meaning), and then prepare a recommendation report 
narrating something similar to: "RFP1 is better than RFP2 in terms of 
responding / pursuing further due to so-and-so reasons".

Example:
RFP1 has a field name XXXX with value $1000 (mentioned in a table format).
RFP2 has the same field name XXXX with value $500 (mentioned in a table format).
RFP1 has net returns field with value 7.3% (mentioned in English text in a 
paragraph).
RFP2 has net returns field with value 5.9% (mentioned in English text in a 
paragraph).

Question:
Can PredictionIO compare RFP1 and RFP2 and then write out a recommendation 
report stating the reasons for recommendation? If yes, is there a 
recommendation template available? I was looking at the "Classification Engine 
Template Quick 
Start<http://predictionio.apache.org/templates/classification/quickstart/>" 
guide, and found this as the closest match for my requirement. But I'd be most 
grateful if anybody can suggest a better one.

Thanks
Sekhar Hari
