The module covers various text mining techniques that can be used in marketing to analyze customer feedback, monitor brand reputation, identify trends and patterns, and develop targeted marketing strategies. It aims to provide an overview of the exponential growth of data and access to unstructured or semi-structured text data and the importance of text mining for businesses to make informed decisions and enhance customer experiences. This module also describes two different text mining techniques: sentiment analysis and topic modeling. These techniques can be applied to a wide range of text data, including customer reviews, social media posts, news articles, and even internal documents such as emails and reports.

In this module, we will discuss the concept of named entity recognition (NER), which is a text-mining technique used to identify and classify named entities, such as people, organizations, locations, and dates, mentioned in a piece of text data. The module explains the importance of NER in natural language processing (NLP) and various industries, including marketing. This module also explains the importance of text classification in analyzing large volumes of text data and its applications in sentiment analysis, spam detection, and customer segmentation. This module describes two other techniques, i.e., topic clusterings and Bayes Nets, that can be used to analyze and make sense of unstructured data. Topic clustering involves grouping similar pieces of text data together based on their shared topics or themes, whereas Bayes Nets is a unique group of techniques with potent predictive abilities that employ graphical analytical approaches to categorize relationships between variables.
