📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to enhance email data analysis using advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, focusing on improving keyword and named entity extraction.

Key Activities

  • DataFrame Filtering: Implemented Python code to filter email data by sender and receiver using Pandas.
  • Email Data Insights: Analyzed email exchanges to derive insights on collaboration and communication patterns.
  • LDA-Based Keyword Extraction: Applied Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) for extracting keywords from emails, including preprocessing and visualization.
  • RAKE Optimization: Improved RAKE keyword extraction to reduce irrelevant metadata capture.
  • Named Entity Recognition (NER): Developed a SpaCy-based NER function to identify entities in email bodies, and explored predefined entity types.
  • NER Performance Enhancement: Discussed strategies to improve NER accuracy, including token cleaning and custom filtering.
  • Advanced NER Models: Evaluated transformer-based models like BERT and RoBERTa for potential use in specialized NER tasks.

Achievements

  • Successfully implemented and tested multiple NLP techniques for email analysis.
  • Improved the quality of keyword and entity extraction processes.
  • Identified potential enhancements for LDA and RAKE methods.

Pending Tasks

  • Further refine LDA and RAKE models to enhance topic and keyword extraction.
  • Explore the integration of advanced NER models for domain-specific applications.
