Text Analytics – Getting insights from text

-
Technology revolution is changing every aspect of the human life. Media and Marketing are no different. Among all the technologies that are contributing to the advancement, Data Science is at the forefront. As Text Data is being continuously generated and consumed in various formats and sizes from a number of varied sources, it is becoming an important asset to organizations. But this asset can be leveraged upon, only if stored, processed and analysed efficiently with the help of intelligent algorithms. There is a growing interest to utilize such data for the improvement of business, health, education, society, etc. There are many ways to process and analyse such data, covering broad techniques such as text visualisation, classification, named entity recognition, sentiment analysis, etc. Effective applications of these techniques can give organisations valuable insights leading to competitive advantage, efficient service delivery and above all higher customer satisfaction.
With this in the view, CDAC Mumbai is conducting a series of short-term courses in Data Science and Machine Learning. This is second series of such courses and latest in this series is  “Text Analytics” going to be conducted during May 18-20, 2017. Registrations for the course are open.

National Workshop on FOSS Desktop Accessibility on August 26, 2011 at CDAC, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai

-
In today’s world, the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) is growing day by day. We use these technologies very extensively in fulfilling our routine tasks like bill payments, banking transactions, reservations and many more to the extent that ICT is not a luxury, but necessity today.

But, question should be asked whether this day still hold some significance in our hearts today. Do we still give the same respect to this day as was initially? Do we really understand what 15th August means to us? For me, it was just another day. More, it was a Sunday, a day to have lots of fursat and wake up late. So, I woke up late and started following my usual routine, then realized it is 15th August. It was already 11'O clock. Outside the flat, atmosphere was not much different. Prime minister's address to the nation had been over some 3 hours back. So, whatever he has said, was followed through the scrolls of news channels.
