Complexities due to the Usage of Code-Mixed Language is a Restraining Factor

Code-Mixed (CM) language is the alteration of languages within a conversation and is a common communicative phenomenon that occurs in multilingual communities across the world.  CM language has been associated with informal or casual speech. There is evidence that the CM language has become the default code of communication in several societies, such as urban India and Mexico. CM also has pervaded written text, especially in computer-mediated communication and social media. NLP processes such as normalization, language identification, language modeling, part-of-speech tagging, dependency parsing, machine translation, and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) face issues while working on non-canonical multilingual data as two or more languages are mixed. The processes of NLP are restrained due to the presence of various codes and languages.

In the recent years, the field of natural language processing (NLP) has gained a lot of traction and is one of the most dominant areas in data science. NLP is a subfield of artificial intelligence (AI) which aids machines in processing and understanding the human language in any given context so that they can automatically perform repetitive tasks like summarization, machine translation, ticket classification, and many others. Along with various innovations from giant companies like Google, NLP has witnessed progression in precision, speed, and even methods that are relied on by computer scientists to resolve complex problems.

With the invention of AI bots such as Alexa, Cortana, Siri, and Google Assistant the use of NLP has surged many folds. Scientists are currently focused on building models that can better comprehend human languages such as English, Hindi, Mandarin, Japanese, Spanish, etc. which are formally known as natural languages. Here are some trends projected to dominate in the natural language processing sectors in the upcoming years:

  • With growing innovations in the field of AI, machine learning is expected to play a vital role in the natural language processing techniques, particularly in text analytics. In the future years, machine learning engine can be used to perform more thorough analysis by means of supervised and unsupervised learning.
  • The continuous evolution of social media platforms clearly indicated that these platforms are going to take over an even more significant role in how companies make decisions. For example, at the time of a quarterly report, a company can depend on several NLP tools to monitor the customer reviews, feedbacks, and responses about their company on social media platforms and in the news. 
  • The rising pragmatic use of NLP can allow companies with large quantities of unstructured text or spoken data to tackle dark data problems and efficiently identify and collate them for insights. 
  • NLP is also expected to become more common in areas that need to understand user intent such as intelligent chatbots and semantic search. Along with the growing use of deep learning as well as unsupervised and supervised machine learning, the plethora of natural language technologies are expected to endure to mold the communication capacity of cognitive computing.
  • NLP is likely to play a vital part in tracking and monitoring market intelligence reports to mine intelligent data for companies for forming upcoming strategies. From 2021, NLP is predicted to find applications in a wide range of business areas. Presently, this technology is extensively used in financial marketing. It is helpful in sharing comprehensive insights into tender delays, market views, and closings and extracting information from large data sources.

Recent Developments in the Natural Language Processing Arena

The adoption of natural language processing is rapidly growing owing to rising demand for big data, data analytics, powerful computing, and enhanced algorithms. Several players in the natural language processing market are profoundly investing in various developments related to natural language processing.
