    Frequently Asked Questions about Text Classification

    Text classification is a process of categorizing text into organized sections or groups. Text classifiers use elements of Natural Language Processing (NLP) to structure textual data in fast, cost-effective, and scalable ways. Also known as text categorization or text tagging, this system of text classification is a useful way to analyze textual components and then organize the text according to tags based on its content. Text classification easily pulls insights from data and then uses that data to automate business processes.‎

    It's valuable to learn about text classification because you can understand that unstructured text is everywhere in our online lives. We use unclassified text every day in our emails, chat conversations, and social media interactions. Businesses and others want to know the value that’s in this unstructured text, but it’s hard to extract value from this data unless it’s organized in a certain way. Text classification can organize text by topic, language, and sentiment to filter it by category and use.‎

    Some of the typical careers that use text classification include jobs like a computational linguist, AI machine learning manager, NLP scientist, system design analyst, computer researcher, technical writer, and other similar data roles. Text classification is an emerging field connected to NLP, and job opportunities may come to those with a background in data science, artificial intelligence, and machine learning experience. Gaining a better understanding of text classification in these types of jobs may help you to grow in levels within your company or organization.‎

    By taking online courses about text classification, you may learn certain basic protocols of how to analyze emails, spam, video content, and social media posts. You may also learn to recognize certain NLP tasks in your daily work and assess which techniques work best. Learning text classification from online courses could show you the various approaches to the subject—the rule-based approach to text classification, the machine learning approach, or a hybrid combination of both. Taking online courses can help you learn the fundamentals of text classification, which can benefit you with skills and knowledge to help you build your future opportunities in this emerging field.‎

    Online Text Classification courses offer a convenient and flexible way to enhance your knowledge or learn new Text Classification skills. Choose from a wide range of Text Classification courses offered by top universities and industry leaders tailored to various skill levels.‎

    When looking to enhance your workforce's skills in Text Classification, it's crucial to select a course that aligns with their current abilities and learning objectives. Our Skills Dashboard is an invaluable tool for identifying skill gaps and choosing the most appropriate course for effective upskilling.
