What problems does NLP solve?

Natural Language Processing processes natural language and supports machines in processing natural language text data.

Good to know: What is Natural Language Processing (NLP)?

NLP is a sub-area of artificial intelligence (AI). Computers are enabled to process and understand text and spoken language.

As understanding natural language is a major challenge, various AI methods are used: primarily lexicons and rule-based methods (classic computational linguistics) and machine learning (ML), for example in the form of deep learning.

For example, certain algorithms identify the rules of natural language, extract the meaning of a sentence and collect essential data from it.

NLP is at the heart of a good enterprise search solution

An enterprise search system provides the ideal basis for NLP applications, as it guarantees access to information in different data silos.

The complexity of human language is a challenge and understanding language is an extremely demanding process. Therefore, various NLP techniques are combined and applied to overcome these difficulties. Human text and speech data is broken down in several stages. Computers are enabled to extract and process structured information from natural language.

By integrating enterprise search solutions with natural language processing, data is finally made easily accessible again. Companies can thus effectively maintain an overview and benefit from improved data availability.
Use Case: Beuth Verlag
The company offers software solutions for standards management, including the former Perinorm and Beuth e-Norm systems. In a modernization project, the innovative Nautos solution was developed in close cooperation with lead users and now replaces these two systems. The integration enables a more cost-efficient solution and opens up new sales opportunities through additional functions.

Use Case: Beuth Verlag
The heart of Nautos is its search function, which Beuth realized with the help of the iFinder solution. The iFinder enables:

An auto-complete function that completes the search term after just a few letters or makes alternative suggestions. Any typing or spelling errors are automatically corrected by the software. The integration of Natural Language Processing (NLP) gives users direct access to the information they need, even for queries in natural language.
