Text Mining

Text mining and text analytics involve analyzing and processing unstructured text data through techniques like information retrieval, concept extraction, information extraction, document clustering, classification, and natural language processing. These techniques are used across various applications including sentiment analysis, spam filtering, genre detection, market basket analysis, question answering, and topic modeling to extract useful insights, trends, and relationships from large collections of text documents. Examples of text mining include using customer reviews to analyze sentiment, defending against spam emails, detecting genres in music based on training data, and applying topic modeling to probabilistically model term frequencies in documents.

Text Mining

Definition :Text mining and text analytics are broad


umbrella terms describing a range of technologies for
analyzing and processing semi-structured and
unstructured text data. The need is to turn text into
numbers so powerful algorithms can be applied to
large document databases.
