What is Natural Language Processing (NLP)?

NLP stands for natural language processing. It is a subfield of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science that focuses on the interaction between computers and humans using natural language. This includes tasks such as topic extraction, language translation, text summarization, sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, and many others.

‍

Accordingly, a topic extraction API is a tool that allows developers to integrate topic extraction functionality into their own software applications through a set of predefined API calls. 

Not to mention that topic extraction can be used instantly, unlike custom text classification which requires a dataset beforehand.

Access all Topic Extraction engines with one API

Our standardized API allows you to use various providers on Eden AI to easily integrate Topic Analysis capabilities into your system.

Some of the providers that you can use include the following (please note that more providers will be added to our catalog in the next few months, so stay tuned!) :

‍

IBM Watson® Natural Language Understanding

IBM uses deep learning to extract meaning and metadata from unstructured text data. Get underneath your data using text analytics to extract categories, classification, entities, keywords, sentiment, emotion, relations, and syntax.

‍

OpenAI

As OpenAI API is all about text generation (like Chat GPT where you can tell it to do "actions"). We gave it a text and an instruction, the instruction being here: extract me the main topic/category of the text.

‍

Google’s Natural Language for classification API

Google’s Natural Language for classification API can be used to quickly group your news articles, blog posts, videos, and documents into classes, and to sort your organization’s data with fast results.

Using this API bypasses traditional training methods which means, you won’t be bogged down with the modeling, hyperparameter tuning, or text-processing.
