Increasing efficiency in G Suite through Natural Language Processing Technology
Natural Language Processing is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence. The Natural Language API is a pre-trained machine learning model which can analyze syntax, extract entities, and evaluate the sentiment of text. It can be called from Google Docs to perform all of these specific functions.
Natural Language Processing is a subfield in Artificial Intelligence which helps us to understand interactions between computers and human languages and also helps to operate and investigate large amounts of Natural Language data. Google has incorporated NLP technology in GSuite to increase productivity and efficiency.
Following are some of the NLP powered features in GSuite :
-
Google Docs: NLP technology in GSuite uses Machine Learning Skill to retrieve person names, places and other entities to analyze overall emotion and sentiment of text in Google Docs. It explores the section in the Tools menu recommended with search results and images in the existing document. These functionalities allow users to easily search the concluding part of the data, the images, links and Google drive accordingly using NLP technology.
-
Google Sheets : Google sheets contain many formulae and are used mainly to analyze quantitative data. These data can be extracted from various sources like Google forms , Google Notes , descriptions e.t.c. The human mind can analyze it if the data is minimal but it becomes difficult to handle if there is a huge amount of data.
By incorporating NLP technology it helps to perform syntax analysis, entity analysis and sentiment analysis through extracting of these data.
-
Google Drive : In Google drive we have autocorrect, NLP Search and a feature to download converted documents in the original file format. With these NLP technology users can easily search the way they talk like “find my latest article” or “last december sales closure report”. Apart from autocorrect , Google drive also has NLP features like “Did you mean” and "Revisions History".
-
Google Cloud Search : Cloud search is empowered with NLP technology to find information quickly across all GSuite services for an organization . Besides finding documents, Cloud Search can also answer questions about people, much like the Knowledge Graph in regular Google Search. For example, users can ask “Who’s Winston’s manager?” to reveal the contact details of the correct employee.
