Communication Mining Automations

Data Collection and Aggregation

Automation

Automated data pipelines gather communication data from various sources, including:

Email

Inbox, sent items, archives

AI's Role

Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms can identify and extract relevant information from unstructured communication data, such as sentiment, topics, named entities (people, organizations, locations), and relationships.

AI’s Role

NLP can be used to normalize text data (e.g., correcting typos, expanding abbreviations) and filter out irrelevant information (e.g., spam, promotional content).

Automation

Automated scripts remove duplicates, handle missing values, and standardize data formats (e.g., converting different date formats into a consistent format).

AI’s Role

Machine learning models are used to discover hidden topics within the communication data. This can be done through techniques like topic modeling (e.g., Latent Dirichlet Allocation) or clustering algorithms. Sentiment analysis algorithms classify messages as positive, negative, or neutral, and can even detect more nuanced emotions like anger, frustration, or satisfaction.

Automation

The system automatically tags messages with topics and sentiment labels, making it easier to analyze large volumes of data.

AI’s Role

NLP and graph analysis algorithms can identify relationships between entities mentioned in the communication data (e.g., who communicates with whom, who influences whom). This can be used to create social networks or identify key influencers within an organization or customer base.

Automation

The system automatically generates visualizations of these networks, making it easier to understand communication patterns.

AI’s Role

Machine learning models can identify patterns in communication data, such as trends in customer complaints, emerging topics of interest, or changes in employee sentiment. AI can also detect anomalies, such as unusual communication patterns that might indicate fraud or security risks.

Automation

The system automatically generates alerts for significant patterns or anomalies, enabling timely action.

Reporting and Visualization

Automation

The system automatically generates reports and dashboards that summarize key findings, such as:

AI's Role

AI-powered dashboards can provide interactive visualizations and natural language explanations of the data, making it easier for non-technical users to understand the insights.
