Agenda
Utilizing SAS Viya and Python, the study employs robust text analytics methods to offer a comprehensive strategy for managing unstructured data. A comparative analysis of various topic modeling algorithms is presented, highlighting their distinct approaches to capturing the semantic essence of documents. The paper also introduces an innovative method using large language models to classify topics into business-specific categories, improving the interpretability and practical application of the results. This approach achieves a significant increase in coherence scores to 0.60 and a categorization accuracy of 88%. This paper assumes a basic understanding of text analytics using SAS, catering to those interested in enhancing their analytical capabilities with modern AI-driven approaches.
Vikranth Reddy Chapaala holds a bachelor's degree in computer science and has developed a passion for solving meaningful problems through data. He is currently pursuing his master’s degree in the Business Analytics and Data Science program at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma, with an expected graduation in May 2025. Between his bachelor's and master's journey, Vikranth worked for approximately 2.5 years in Data Engineering and Analytics teams and has now been working in Data Science for the past 8 months.
