Title of
talk: Text Analytics for Social Media and Beyond
Synopsis: We will
explore the potential of unstructured data, often being the largest data source,
by data size in any public and private organization. Management and IT recognize
the huge potential of leveraging unstructured data for almost all functions of
the organization - as well as the challenges that come with it. This talk will
discuss various objectives from commercial perspectives in CRM and marketing, to
security issues of reducing fraud and protecting borders. The audience will hear
how forward-looking leaders make significant investments in Text Analytics to
derive organization-wide benefits, unmatched by expert systems/ methodology or
traditional analysis techniques.
