What is text
analytics?
Text analytics
leverages and learns from massive quantities of textual data to reveal customer
intentions and sentiment, driving enterprise decisions and providing strategic
insights. It is a set of analytical methods designed to operate across the
written word, including call center notes, blogs, tweets, web pages, newspaper
articles and much more. This kind of data is strongly distinct from that stored
uniformly in database tables, and demands unique technology that integrates
linguistics, grammar, math and knowledge engineering.
What will I
learn at Text Analytics World?
· New apps: New ways to apply
text analytics.
· Do better: How to achieve
better results with text analytics.
· Companies: What companies are at
the leading edge of text analytics and what are they doing?
· Solutions: Which are the best
text analytics solution providers, what do they do and how do they compare?
Is this a
“data mining” conference?
Partially –
text analytics can be used to turn unstructured text into data. Depending
on one’s definition of “data mining” – a subjective area – text analytics is
distinct in that it may be employed for wider variety of value-driving
applications by adding structure to the 90% of business information that is
unstructured.
Is Text
Analytics World run by a software vendor?
No. Text
Analytics World provides a balanced view of text analytics methods and tools
across software vendors and solution providers.
Does Text
Analytics World cover natural language processing or computational linguistics
research?
No. Text
Analytics World is focused on today’s commercial deployment of text analytics,
and while we might cover potential applications of this academic research into
computational linguistics or NLP, but not the research issues directly.
