AI-Powered Solution To Uncover Hidden Trends
AI-Powered Solution To Uncover Hidden Trends
In Millions Of Articles
BACKGROUND
- Opentopic (now defunct) faced a challenge of extracting valuable insights from a vast ocean of online articles.
- Manually processing such data was impossible and gathering insights requires using domain experts.
- Opentopic needed a system to automatically gather, classify, and analyze massive datasets for trend identification.
IMPACT
- Save significant time and resources by automating data collection and analysis.
- Gain deeper understanding of public sentiment and emerging trends.
OBJECTIVES
Develop an AI-powered solution for Opentopic that could automate the entire data processing pipeline. This included collecting articles from the web, classifying them by category, analyzing sentiment, extracting
predicting author age. Ultimately, the goal was to transform massive datasets into actionable insights through trend identification and concise data summaries.
SOLUTIONS
Solution tackled Opentopic’s data challenge head-on. We leveraged web scraping techniques to gather online articles and employed machine learning to categorize them by a pre-defined system. Sentiment analysis models determined the overall tone of each article, while advanced algorithms identified key entities and analyzed the sentiment surrounding them. Furthermore, the system extracted author information, including predicted age based on writing style, and captured the main image and publication date of each article. Finally, BlueRider.Software designed algorithms to identify trends within the data, focusing on shifts in sentiment or topic mentions over time. By creating summaries that highlighted key points, the solution empowered Opentopic to gain valuable insights from vast amounts of data with remarkable efficiency.
