Text analytics is concerned with inference from written communications. Modern developments in computational techniques and power have created opportunities to analyse vast quantities of text data to provide more effective decision support. The applications of these methods are widespread, the challenges are considerable but the potential benefits are substantial. As such, text analytics draws academics from across all four faculties of the university with interests ranging from developing fundamental techniques to applying methods to enhance outcomes.
The following provides an example of some of our work in Text Analytics. If you would be interested in learning more about our activity either contact our group at textanalytics-group@strath.ac.uk or please make direct enquiries to particular academics.
