data analytics with human language data
raw human language data can come from a variety of sources, including audio signals, web and social media, documents and databases containing valuable information such as voice commands, public sentiment on topics, operational data, and maintenance reports. natural language processing can be used to combine and simplify these large sources of data, transforming them into meaningful insight with visualizations, topic models, and machine learning classifiers. for example, using matlab® you can detect the presence of human speech in an audio segment, perform speech-to-text transcription, and then perform text mining and machine learning on those sources.
natural language processing is used in finance, manufacturing, electronics, software, information technology, and other industries for applications such as:
- automating the classification of reviews based on sentiment, whether positive or negative
- counting the frequency of words or phrases in documents and performing topic modeling
- developing predictive equipment maintenance schedules based on sensor and text log data
- automating labeling and tagging of speech recordings
