15. AI in Astronomy
If there's one concept that has caught everyone by storm in this beautiful world of technology, it
has to be - AI (Artificial Intelligence), without a question. AI or Artificial Intelligence has seen a
wide range of applications throughout the years, including healthcare, robotics, eCommerce, and
even finance.
Astronomy, on the other hand, is a largely unexplored topic that is just as intriguing and thrilling
as the rest. When it comes to astronomy, one of the most difficult problems is analyzing the data.
As a result, astronomers are turning to machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create
new tools. Having said that, consider how Artificial Intelligence has altered astronomy and is
meeting the demands of astronomers.
Recently, a group of scientists used Artificial Intelligence in a galaxy merger investigation to

establish that galaxy mergers were the primary force underlying starbursts. Given the size of the
collection, the researchers created a deep learning system that trained itself to locate merging
galaxies. According to one of the astronomers, the advantage of Artificial Intelligence is that it
improves the study's repeatability. The reason for this is that the algorithm's definitions of a
merger are consistent.
The changing sky has captured everyone's attention as one of the most astounding projects of all
time. This project seeks to survey the whole night sky every night, gathering over 80 terabytes of
data in one go to study how stars and galaxies in the cosmos change over time.
One of the most important duties for an astronomer is to find a p. The theory is that whenever an
exoplanet passes in front of its parent star, part of the light is blocked, which humans can see.

Page 8 of 41
Astronomers use this location to study an exoplanet's orbit and develop a picture of the light
dips. They then identify the planet's many parameters, such as its mass, size, and distance from
its star, to mention a few. However, AI proves to be more than a savior in this case. Using AI's
time-series analysis capabilities, it is feasible to analyze data as a sequential sequence and
identify planetary signals with up to 96% accuracy.
Finding the signals of the universe's most catastrophic events is critical for astronomers. When
exoplanets collide with each other, they cause ripples in space-time. These can be identified
further by monitoring feeble signals on Earth. Collaborations on gravitational-wave detectors -
Ligo and Virgo have performed admirably in this regard. Both of them were effective in
recognizing signals using machine learning. Astronomers now get notifications, allowing them to
point their telescopes in the appropriate direction.
16. AI in Data Security

Many people believe that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the present and future of the technology
sector. Many industry leaders employ AI for a variety of purposes, including providing valued
services and preparing their companies for the future.
Data security, which is one of the most important assets of any tech-oriented firm, is one of the
most prevalent and critical applications of AI. With confidential data ranging from consumer
data (such as credit card information) to organizational secrets kept online, data security is vital
for any institution to satisfy both legal and operational duties. This work is now as difficult as it
is vital, and many businesses deploy AI-based security solutions to keep their data out of the
wrong hands.
Because the world is smarter and more connected than ever before, the function of Artificial
Intelligence in business is critical today. According to several estimates, cyberattacks will get
more tenacious over time, and security teams will need to rely on AI solutions to keep systems
and data under control.
Identifies Unknown Threats

Page 9 of 41
A human may not be able to recognize all of the hazards that a business confronts. Every year,
hackers launch hundreds of millions of assaults for a variety of reasons. Unknown threats can
cause severe network damage. Worse, they can have an impact before you recognize, identify,
and prevent them.
As attackers test different tactics ranging from malware assaults to sophisticated malware
assaults, contemporary solutions should be used to avoid them. Artificial Intelligence has shown
to be one of the most effective security solutions for mapping and preventing unexpected threats
from wreaking havoc on a corporation.
Flaw Identification
AI assists in detecting data overflow in a buffer. When programs consume more data than usual,
this is referred to as buffer overflow. Aside from the fault caused by human triggers breaking
crucial data. These blunders are also observable by AI, and they are detected in real-time,
preventing future dangers.
AI can precisely discover cybersecurity weaknesses, faults, and other problems using Machine
Learning. Machine Learning also assists AI in identifying questionable data provided by any
application. Malware or virus used by hackers to gain access to systems as well as steal data is
carried out via programming language flaws.
Threat Prevention
Artificial Intelligence technology is constantly being developed by cyber security vendors. In its
advanced version, AI is designed to detect flaws in the system or even the update. It’d instantly
exclude anybody attempting to exploit those issues. AI would be an outstanding tool for
preventing any threat from occurring. It may install additional firewalls as well as rectify code
faults that lead to dangers.
Responding to Threats
It's something that happens after the threat has entered the system. As previously explained, AI is
used to detect unusual behavior and create an outline of viruses or malware. AI is currently

Page 10 of 41
taking appropriate action against viruses or malware. The reaction consists mostly of removing
the infection, repairing the fault, and administering the harm done. Finally, AI guarantees that
such an incident does not happen again and takes proper preventative actions.
Recognize Uncharacterised Action

AI allows us to detect unusual behavior in a system. It is capable of detecting unusual or unusual
behavior by continually scanning a system and gathering an appropriate amount of data. In
addition, AI identifies illegal access. When unusual behavior is identified, Artificial Intelligence
employs particular elements to determine whether it represents a genuine threat or a fabricated
warning. Machine Learning is used to help AI determine what is and is not aberrant behavior.
Machine Learning is also improving with time, which will allow Artificial Intelligence to detect
even minor anomalies. As a result, AI would point to anything wrong with the system.
17. AI in Travel and Transport

Intelligent technology has become a part of our daily lives in recent years. And, as technology
advances across society, new uses of AI, notably in transportation, are becoming mainstream.
This has created a new market for firms and entrepreneurs to develop innovative solutions for
making public transportation more comfortable, accessible, and safe.
Intelligent transportation systems have the potential to become one of the most effective methods
to improve the quality of life for people all around the world. There are multiple instances of
similar systems in use in various sectors.
Heavy Goods Transportation

Truck platooning, which networks HGV (heavy goods vehicles), for example, might be
extremely valuable for vehicle transport businesses or for moving other large items.
The lead vehicle in a truck platoon is steered by a human driver, however, the human drivers in
any other trucks drive passively, just taking the wheel in exceptionally dangerous or difficult
situations.

Page 11 of 41
Because all of the trucks in the platoon are linked via a network, they travel in formation and
activate the actions done by the human driver in the lead vehicle at the same time. So, if the lead
driver comes to a complete stop, all of the vehicles following him do as well.
Traffic Management
Clogged city streets are a key impediment to urban transportation all around the world. Cities
throughout the world have enlarged highways, erected bridges, and established other modes of
transportation such as train travel, yet the traffic problem persists. However, AI advancements in
traffic management provide a genuine promise of changing the situation.
Intelligent traffic management may be used to enforce traffic regulations and promote road
safety. For example, Alibaba's City Brain initiative in China uses AI technologies such as
predictive analysis, big data analysis, and a visual search engine in order to track road networks
in real-time and reduce congestion.
Building a city requires an efficient transformation system, and AI-based traffic management
technologies are powering next-generation smart cities.
Ride-Sharing
Platforms like Uber and OLA leverage AI to improve user experiences by connecting riders and
drivers, improving user communication and messaging, and optimizing decision-making. For
example, Uber has its own proprietary ML-as-a-service platform called Michelangelo that can
anticipate supply and demand, identify trip abnormalities like wrecks, and estimate arrival
timings.
Route Planning
AI-enabled route planning using predictive analytics may help both businesses and people. Ride-
sharing services already achieve this by analyzing numerous real-world parameters to optimize
route planning.

Page 12 of 41
AI-enabled route planning is a terrific approach for businesses, particularly logistics and
shipping industries, to construct a more efficient supply network by anticipating road conditions
and optimizing vehicle routes. Predictive analytics in route planning is the intelligent evaluation
by a machine of a number of road usage parameters such as congestion level, road restrictions,
traffic patterns, consumer preferences, and so on.
Cargo logistics companies, such as vehicle transport services or other general logistics firms,
may use this technology to reduce delivery costs, accelerate delivery times, and better manage
assets and operations.
18. AI in Automotive Industry

A century ago, the idea of machines being able to comprehend, do complex computations, and
devise efficient answers to pressing issues was more of a science fiction writer's vision than a
predictive reality. Still, as we enter the third decade of the twenty-first century, we can't fathom
our lives without stock trading and marketing bots, manufacturing robots, smart assistance,
virtual travel agents, and other innovations made possible by advances in Artificial Intelligence
and machine learning. The importance of Artificial Intelligence and machine learning in the
automotive sector cannot be overstated.
With Artificial Intelligence driving more applications to the automotive sector, more businesses
are deciding to implement Artificial Intelligence and machine learning models in production.

Language Models
What is language models?
Language models, often abbreviated as LM, are a crucial component of natural language
processing (NLP) in the field of artificial intelligence. They are statistical models that analyze
and predict sequences of words to facilitate communication between humans and machines. By
understanding the structure and context of human language, language models enable AI systems
to comprehend and generate human-like text, ultimately enhancing the quality and efficiency of
interactions.
The definition of language models in the AI context underscores their ability to provide a
framework for understanding and generating human language, allowing for seamless integration
and interaction between individuals and AI-powered systems. These models are designed to
capture the nuances and intricacies of language, facilitating tasks such as speech recognition,
language translation, and text generation in a manner that closely resembles human
communication.
Background and evolution

Tracing the origin of language models leads us back to the early days of computational
linguistics and machine learning. The concept gained traction in the 1950s with the development
of the first computer-based language models, which primarily focused on statistical approaches
to analyze and generate text. Over the decades, language models have evolved from simple n-
gram models to more sophisticated architectures like recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and
transformer-based models.
The evolution of language models has been shaped by advancements in computational power,
the accumulation of vast linguistic datasets, and innovations in neural network architectures. This
collective progress has propelled language models into the forefront of AI, significantly
enhancing their capabilities in understanding and processing human language with incredible
precision.

Page 15 of 41
Significance in the AI field

The significance of language models in the AI field cannot be overstated. These models form the
bedrock of various AI applications, including virtual assistants, language translation services,
and sentiment analysis tools. By empowering AI systems with the ability to comprehend and
generate human language, language models have revolutionized the way individuals interact with
technology, making communication more intuitive and effective than ever before.
The pivotal role of language models in driving AI advancements is evident in their impact on
natural language processing, machine translation, and text generation. Moreover, language
models have facilitated the development of sophisticated chatbots and virtual agents, which are
increasingly adept at understanding and responding to human queries and commands.
Working mechanism
The working mechanism of language models revolves around their ability to analyze and predict
sequences of words based on existing linguistic patterns and structures. This process involves
incorporating contextual information from surrounding words to generate coherent and
contextually relevant text. Key features of language models include their capacity to capture
long-range dependencies, understand semantic nuances, and adapt to diverse linguistic styles and
genres.
Decoding the mechanics of language models reveals their proficiency in handling complex
language tasks such as language modeling, text generation, and sentiment analysis. Whether it's
autocomplete suggestions in search engines or conversational interfaces in smart devices,
language models underpin the seamless integration of AI into various facets of daily life.
Uses and examples of language modeling

Language models are the backbone of NLP. Below are some NLP use cases and tasks that
employ language modeling:

Page 16 of 41
 Speech recognition. This involves a machine being able to process speech audio. Voice
assistants such as Siri and Alexa commonly use speech recognition.
 Text generation. This application uses prediction to generate coherent and contextually
relevant text. It has applications in creative writing, content generation, and
summarization of structured data and other text.
 Chatbots. These bots engage in humanlike conversations with users as well as generate
accurate responses to questions. Chatbots are used in virtual assistants, customer support
applications and information retrieval systems.
 Machine translation. This involves the translation of one language to another by a
machine. Google Translate and Microsoft Translator are two programs that do this.
Another is SDL Government, which is used to translate foreign social media feeds in real
time for the U.S. government.
 Parts-of-speech tagging. This use involves the markup and categorization of words by
certain grammatical characteristics. This model is used in the study of linguistics. It was
first and perhaps most famously used in the study of the Brown Corpus, a body of
random English prose that was designed to be studied by computers. This corpus has
been used to train several important language models, including one used by Google to
improve search quality.
 Parsing. This use involves analysis of any string of data or sentence that conforms to
formal grammar and syntax rules. In language modeling, this can take the form of
sentence diagrams that depict each word's relationship to the others. Spell-checking
applications use language modeling and parsing.
 Optical character recognition. This application involves the use of a machine to convert
images of text into machine-encoded text. The image can be a scanned document or
document photo, or a photo with text somewhere in it -- on a sign, for example. Optical
character recognition is often used in data entry when processing old paper records that
need to be digitized. It can also be used to analyze and identify handwriting samples.
 Information retrieval. This approach involves searching in a document for information,
searching for documents in general and searching for metadata that corresponds to a
document. Web browsers are the most common information retrieval applications.

Page 17 of 41
 Observed data analysis. These language models analyze observed data such as sensor
data, telemetric data and data from experiments.
 Sentiment analysis. This application involves determining the sentiment behind a given
phrase. Specifically, sentiment analysis is used to understand opinions and attitudes
expressed in a text. Businesses use it to analyze unstructured data, such as product
reviews and general posts about their product, as well as analyze internal data such as
employee surveys and customer support chats. Some services that provide sentiment
analysis tools are Repustate and HubSpot's Service Hub. Google's NLP tool Bert is also
used for sentiment analysis.

Page 18 of 41
Information Retrieval
Information Retrieval (IR) can be defined as a software program that deals with the organization,
storage, retrieval, and evaluation of information from document repositories, particularly textual
information. Information Retrieval is the activity of obtaining material that can usually be
documented on an unstructured nature i.e. usually text which satisfies an information need from
within large collections which is stored on computers. For example, Information Retrieval can be
when a user enters a query into the system.
Not only librarians, professional searchers, etc engage themselves in the activity of information
retrieval but nowadays hundreds of millions of people engage in IR every day when they use
web search engines. Information Retrieval is believed to be the dominant form of Information
access. The IR system assists the users in finding the information they require but it does not
explicitly return the answers to the question. It notifies regarding the existence and location of
documents that might consist of the required information. Information retrieval also extends
support to users in browsing or filtering document collection or processing a set of retrieved
documents. The system searches over billions of documents stored on millions of computers. A
spam filter, manual or automatic means are provided by Email program for classifying the mails
so that it can be placed directly into particular folders.
An IR system has the ability to represent, store, organize, and access information items. A set of
keywords are required to search. Keywords are what people are searching for in search engines.
These keywords summarize the description of the information.
What is an IR Model?
An Information Retrieval (IR) model selects and ranks the document that is required by the user
or the user has asked for in the form of a query. The documents and the queries are represented
in a similar manner, so that document selection and ranking can be formalized by a matching
function that returns a retrieval status value (RSV) for each document in the collection. Many of
the Information Retrieval systems represent document contents by a set of descriptors, called
terms, belonging to a vocabulary V. An IR model determines the query-document matching
function according to four main approaches:

The estimation of the probability of user’s relevance rel for each document d and query q with
respect to a set R q of training documents: Prob (rel|d, q, Rq)
Types of IR Models

Page 20 of 41
Components of Information Retrieval/ IR Model
 Acquisition: In this step, the selection of documents and other objects from various web
resources that consist of text-based documents takes place. The required data is collected
by web crawlers and stored in the database.
 Representation: It consists of indexing that contains free-text terms, controlled
vocabulary, manual & automatic techniques as well. example: Abstracting contains
summarizing and Bibliographic description that contains author, title, sources, data, and
metadata.
 File Organization: There are two types of file organization methods. i.e. Sequential: It
contains documents by document data. Inverted: It contains term by term, list of records
under each term. Combination of both.
 Query: An IR process starts when a user enters a query into the system. Queries are
formal statements of information needs, for example, search strings in web search
engines. In information retrieval, a query does not uniquely identify a single object in the
collection. Instead, several objects may match the query, perhaps with different degrees
of relevancy.

User Interaction with Information Retrieval System
User Interaction with IR
The User Task: The information first is supposed to be translated into a query by the user. In the
information retrieval system, there is a set of words that convey the semantics of the information
that is required whereas, in a data retrieval system, a query expression is used to convey the
constraints which are satisfied by the objects. Example: A user wants to search for something but
ends up searching with another thing. This means that the user is browsing and not searching.
The above figure shows the interaction of the user through different tasks.
Logical View of the Documents: A long time ago, documents were represented through a set of
index terms or keywords. Nowadays, modern computers represent documents by a full set of

Page 23 of 41
words which reduces the set of representative keywords. This can be done by eliminating
stopwords i.e. articles and connectives. These operations are text operations. These text
operations reduce the complexity of the document representation from full text to set of index
terms.
Past, Present, and Future of Information Retrieval
1. Early Developments: As there was an increase in the need for a lot of information, it became
necessary to build data structures to get faster access. The index is the data structure for faster
retrieval of information. Over centuries manual categorization of hierarchies was done for
indexes.
2. Information Retrieval In Libraries: Libraries were the first to adopt IR systems for information
retrieval. In first-generation, it consisted, automation of previous technologies, and the search
was based on author name and title. In the second generation, it included searching by subject
heading, keywords, etc. In the third generation, it consisted of graphical interfaces, electronic
forms, hypertext features, etc.
3. The Web and Digital Libraries: It is cheaper than various sources of information, it provides
greater access to networks due to digital communication and it gives free access to publish on a
larger medium.
Advantages of Information Retrieval

1. Efficient Access: Information retrieval techniques make it possible for users to easily
locate and retrieve vast amounts of data or information.
2. Personalization of Results: User profiling and personalization techniques are used in
information retrieval models to tailor search results to individual preferences and
behaviors.
3. Scalability: Information retrieval models are capable of handling increasing data
volumes.
4. Precision: These systems can provide highly accurate and relevant search results,
reducing the likelihood of irrelevant information appearing in search results.

Page 24 of 41
Disadvantages of Information Retrieval

1. Information Overload: When a lot of information is available, users often face
information overload, making it difficult to find the most useful and relevant material.
2. Lack of Context: Information retrieval systems may fail to understand the context of a
user’s query, potentially leading to inaccurate results.
3. Privacy and Security Concerns: As information retrieval systems often access sensitive
user data, they can raise privacy and security concerns.
4. Maintenance Challenges: Keeping these systems up-to-date and effective requires
ongoing efforts, including regular updates, data cleaning, and algorithm adjustments.
5. Bias and fairness: Ensuring that information retrieval systems do not exhibit biases and
provide fair and unbiased results is a crucial challenge, especially in contexts like web
search engines and recommendation systems.

Information Extraction :
Information Extraction’s main goal is to find out meaningful information from the document set.
IE is one type of IR. IE automatically gets structured information from a set of unstructured
documents or corpus. IE focuses more on texts that can be read and written by humans and
utilize them with NLP (natural language processing). But information retrieval system finds
information that is relevant to the user’s information need and that is stored into a computer. It
returns documents of text (unstructured form) from a large set of corpses.
The information extraction system used in online text extraction should come at a low cost. It
needs to have flexibility in development and must have an easy conversion to new domains.
Let’s take the natural language processing of the machine as an example, i.e. Here
IE(information extraction) is able to recognize the IR system of a person’s need. Using
information extraction we want to make a machine capable of extracting structured information
from documents. The importance of an information extraction system is determined by the
growing amount of information available in unstructured form(data without metadata), like on
the Internet. This knowledge can be made more accessible utilizing transformation into relational
form, or by marking-up with XML tags.
We always try to use automated learning systems in information extraction and we always use
this. This type of IE system will decrease the faults in information extraction. This will also
reduce dependencies on a domain by diminishing the requirement for supervision. IE of
structured information relies on the basic content management principle: “Content must be in
context to have value“. Information Extraction is difficult than Information Retrieval.
Difference between Information Retrieval and Information Extraction :

Information Extraction is not Information Retrieval. Conventional text extraction methods also
return a set of a subset of documents that are probably relevant to the query. Result return is
based on search keywords.
The main goal of IE is to extract meaningful information from corps of documents that might be
in different languages. Here meaningful information contains types of information like events,

Page 26 of 41
facts, components, or relations. These facts are then usually stored automatically into a database,
which may then be used to analyze the data for trends, to give a natural language summary, or
simply to serve for online access. More formally, Information Extraction gets facts out of
documents while Information Retrieval gets sets of relevant documents.

Natural Language Processing:

Natural language processing (NLP) is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This is a widely
used technology for personal assistants that are used in various business fields/areas. This
technology works on the speech provided by the user breaks it down for proper understanding
and processes it accordingly. This is a very recent and effective approach due to which it has a
really high demand in today’s market. Natural Language Processing is an upcoming field where
already many transitions such as compatibility with smart devices, and interactive talks with a
human have been made possible. Knowledge representation, logical reasoning, and constraint
satisfaction were the emphasis of AI applications in NLP. Here first it was applied to semantics
and later to grammar. In the last decade, a significant change in NLP research has resulted in the
widespread use of statistical approaches such as machine learning and data mining on a massive
scale. The need for automation is never-ending courtesy of the amount of work required to be
done these days. NLP is a very favorable, but aspect when it comes to automated applications.
The applications of NLP have led it to be one of the most sought-after methods of implementing
machine learning. Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field that combines computer science,
linguistics, and machine learning to study how computers and humans communicate in natural
language. The goal of NLP is for computers to be able to interpret and generate human language.
This not only improves the efficiency of work done by humans but also helps in interacting with
the machine. NLP bridges the gap of interaction between humans and electronic devices.
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a subfield of artificial intelligence that deals with the
interaction between computers and humans in natural language. It involves the use of
computational techniques to process and analyze natural language data, such as text and speech,
with the goal of understanding the meaning behind the language.
NLP is used in a wide range of applications, including machine translation, sentiment analysis,
speech recognition, chatbots, and text classification. Some common techniques used in NLP
include:
 Tokenization: the process of breaking text into individual words or phrases.

Page 28 of 41
 Part-of-speech tagging: the process of labeling each word in a sentence with its
grammatical part of speech.
 Named entity recognition: the process of identifying and categorizing named entities,
such as people, places, and organizations, in text.
 Sentiment analysis: the process of determining the sentiment of a piece of text, such as
whether it is positive, negative, or neutral.
 Machine translation: the process of automatically translating text from one language to
another.
 Text classification: the process of categorizing text into predefined categories or topics.
Recent advances in deep learning, particularly in the area of neural networks, have led to
significant improvements in the performance of NLP systems. Deep learning techniques such as
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) have been
applied to tasks such as sentiment analysis and machine translation, achieving state-of-the-art
results.
Overall, NLP is a rapidly evolving field that has the potential to revolutionize the way we
interact with computers and the world around us.
What is Natural Language Processing?

Natural language processing (NLP) is a field of computer science and artificial intelligence that
aims to make computers understand human language. NLP uses computational linguistics, which
is the study of how language works, and various models based on statistics, machine learning,
and deep learning. These technologies allow computers to analyze and process text or voice data,
and to grasp their full meaning, including the speaker’s or writer’s intentions and emotions.
NLP powers many applications that use language, such as text translation, voice recognition, text
summarization, and chatbots. You may have used some of these applications yourself, such as
voice-operated GPS systems, digital assistants, speech-to-text software, and customer service
bots. NLP also helps businesses improve their efficiency, productivity, and performance by
simplifying complex tasks that involve language.

Page 29 of 41
Human language is filled with ambiguities that make it incredibly difficult to write software that
accurately determines the intended meaning of text or voice data. Homonyms, homophones,
sarcasm, idioms, metaphors, grammar and usage exceptions, variations in sentence structure—
these just a few of the irregularities of human language that take humans years to learn, but that
programmers must teach natural language-driven applications to recognize and understand
accurately from the start, if those applications are going to be useful.
NLP Tasks
Several NLP tasks break down human text and voice data in ways that help the computer make
sense of what it’s ingesting. Some of these tasks include the following:
 Speech recognition, also known as speech-to-text, is a challenging task that involves

converting voice data into text data. This technology is essential for any application that
requires voice commands or spoken responses. However, people’s speaking habits, such
as speaking quickly, slurring words, using different accents, and incorrect grammar,
make speech recognition even more challenging.
 Part of speech tagging, also known as grammatical tagging, is a crucial process that
determines the part of speech of a specific word or piece of text based on its context and
usage. For example, it can identify ‘make’ as a verb in ‘I can make a paper plane’ and as
a noun in ‘What make of car do you own?’
 Word sense disambiguation is a semantic analysis process that selects the most
appropriate meaning of a word with multiple meanings based on the given context. This
process is helpful in distinguishing the meaning of the verb ‘make’ in ‘make the grade’
(achieve) versus ‘make a bet’ (place).
 Named entity recognition (NEM) identifies useful entities or phrases, such as ‘Kentucky’
as a location or ‘Fred’ as a person’s name. Co-reference resolution is the task of
identifying when two words refer to the same entity, such as determining that ‘she’ refers
to ‘Mary.’ Sentiment analysis is a process that attempts to extract subjective qualities,
including attitudes, emotions, sarcasm, confusion, and suspicion, from text.

Page 30 of 41
 Natural language generation is the opposite of speech recognition, as it involves putting

structured information into human language. Overall, understanding these processes is
essential in building effective natural language processing systems.
Natural Language Processing

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computer
Science that is concerned with the interactions between computers and humans in natural
language. The goal of NLP is to develop algorithms and models that enable computers to
understand, interpret, generate, and manipulate human languages.
Common Natural Language Processing (NLP) Task:

 Text and speech processing: This includes Speech recognition, text-&-speech processing,
encoding(i.e converting speech or text to machine-readable language), etc.
 Text classification: This includes Sentiment Analysis in which the machine can analyze
the qualities, emotions, and sarcasm from text and also classify it accordingly.
 Language generation: This includes tasks such as machine translation, summary writing,
essay writing, etc. which aim to produce coherent and fluent text.
 Language interaction: This includes tasks such as dialogue systems, voice assistants, and
chatbots, which aim to enable natural communication between humans and computers.
 NLP techniques are widely used in a variety of applications such as search engines,
machine translation, sentiment analysis, text summarization, question answering, and
many more. NLP research is an active field and recent advancements in deep learning
have led to significant improvements in NLP performance. However, NLP is still a
challenging field as it requires an understanding of both computational and linguistic
principles.
Working of Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Working in natural language processing (NLP) typically involves using computational
techniques to analyze and understand human language. This can include tasks such as language
understanding, language generation, and language interaction.

Page 31 of 41
The field is divided into three different parts:
 Speech Recognition — The translation of spoken language into text.

 Natural Language Understanding (NLU) — The computer’s ability to understand what
we say.
 Natural Language Generation (NLG) — The generation of natural language by a
computer.
NLU and NLG are the key aspects depicting the working of NLP devices. These 2 aspects are
very different from each other and are achieved using different methods.
Individuals working in NLP may have a background in computer science, linguistics, or a related
field. They may also have experience with programming languages such as Python, and C++ and
be familiar with various NLP libraries and frameworks such as NLTK, spaCy, and OpenNLP.
Speech Recognition:
First, the computer must take natural language and convert it into machine-readable language.
This is what speech recognition or speech-to-text does. This is the first step of NLU.
 Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are used in the majority of voice recognition systems
nowadays. These are statistical models that use mathematical calculations to determine
what you said in order to convert your speech to text.
 HMMs do this by listening to you talk, breaking it down into small units (typically 10-20
milliseconds), and comparing it to pre-recorded speech to figure out which phoneme you
uttered in each unit (a phoneme is the smallest unit of speech). The program then
examines the sequence of phonemes and uses statistical analysis to determine the most
likely words and sentences you were speaking.
Natural Language Understanding (NLU):
The next and hardest step of NLP is the understanding part.
 First, the computer must comprehend the meaning of each word. It tries to figure out
whether the word is a noun or a verb, whether it’s in the past or present tense, and so on.
This is called Part-of-Speech tagging (POS).

Page 32 of 41
 A lexicon (a vocabulary) and a set of grammatical rules are also built into NLP systems.
The most difficult part of NLP is understanding.
 The machine should be able to grasp what you said by the conclusion of the process.
There are several challenges in accomplishing this when considering problems such as
words having several meanings (polysemy) or different words having similar meanings
(synonymy), but developers encode rules into their NLU systems and train them to learn
to apply the rules correctly.
Natural Language Generation (NLG):
 NLG is much simpler to accomplish. NLG converts a computer’s machine-readable
language into text and can also convert that text into audible speech using text-to-speech
technology.
 First, the NLP system identifies what data should be converted to text. If you asked the
computer a question about the weather, it most likely did an online search to find your
answer, and from there it decides that the temperature, wind, and humidity are the factors
that should be read aloud to you.
 Then, it organizes the structure of how it’s going to say it. This is similar to NLU except
backward. NLG system can construct full sentences using a lexicon and a set of grammar
rules.
 Finally, text-to-speech takes over. The text-to-speech engine uses a prosody model to
evaluate the text and identify breaks, duration, and pitch. The engine then combines all
the recorded phonemes into one cohesive string of speech using a speech database.
Some common roles in Natural Language Processing (NLP) include:

 NLP engineer: designing and implementing NLP systems and models
 NLP researcher: conducting research on NLP techniques and algorithms
 ML engineer: Designing and deployment of various machine learning models including
NLP.
 NLP data scientist: analyzing and interpreting NLP data
 NLP consultant: providing expertise in NLP to organizations and businesses.
Working in NLP can be both challenging and rewarding as it requires a good understanding of
both computational and linguistic principles. NLP is a fast-paced and rapidly changing field, so it

Page 33 of 41
is important for individuals working in NLP to stay up-to-date with the latest developments and
advancements.
Technologies related to Natural Language Processing

There are a variety of technologies related to natural language processing (NLP) that are used to
analyze and understand human language. Some of the most common include:
 Machine learning: NLP relies heavily on machine learning techniques such as supervised
and unsupervised learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning to train models to
understand and generate human language.
 Natural Language Toolkits (NLTK) and other libraries: NLTK is a popular open-source
library in Python that provides tools for NLP tasks such as tokenization, stemming, and
part-of-speech tagging. Other popular libraries include spaCy, OpenNLP, and CoreNLP.
 Parsers: Parsers are used to analyze the syntactic structure of sentences, such as
dependency parsing and constituency parsing.
 Text-to-Speech (TTS) and Speech-to-Text (STT) systems: TTS systems convert written
text into spoken words, while STT systems convert spoken words into written text.
 Named Entity Recognition (NER) systems: NER systems identify and extract named
entities such as people, places, and organizations from the text.
 Sentiment Analysis: A technique to understand the emotions or opinions expressed in a
piece of text, by using various techniques like Lexicon-Based, Machine Learning-Based,
and Deep Learning-based methods
 Machine Translation: NLP is used for language translation from one language to another
through a computer.
 Chatbots: NLP is used for chatbots that communicate with other chatbots or humans
through auditory or textual methods.
 AI Software: NLP is used in question-answering software for knowledge representation,
analytical reasoning as well as information retrieval.
Applications of Natural Language Processing (NLP):

 Spam Filters: One of the most irritating things about email is spam. Gmail uses natural
language processing (NLP) to discern which emails are legitimate and which are spam.

Page 34 of 41
These spam filters look at the text in all the emails you receive and try to figure out what
it means to see if it’s spam or not.
 Algorithmic Trading: Algorithmic trading is used for predicting stock market conditions.
Using NLP, this technology examines news headlines about companies and stocks and
attempts to comprehend their meaning in order to determine if you should buy, sell, or
hold certain stocks.
 Questions Answering: NLP can be seen in action by using Google Search or Siri
Services. A major use of NLP is to make search engines understand the meaning of what
we are asking and generate natural language in return to give us the answers.
 Summarizing Information: On the internet, there is a lot of information, and a lot of it
comes in the form of long documents or articles. NLP is used to decipher the meaning of
the data and then provides shorter summaries of the data so that humans can comprehend
it more quickly.

Machine Translation in AI
Machine translation of languages refers to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine
learning algorithms to automatically translate text or speech from one language to another. This
technology has been developed over the years and has become increasingly sophisticated, with
the ability to produce accurate translations across a wide range of languages.
Machine translation is a sub-field of computational linguistics that focuses on developing

systems capable of automatically translating text or speech from one language to another. In
Natural Language Processing (NLP), the goal of machine translation is to produce translations
that are not only grammatically correct but also convey the meaning of the original content
accurately.

Page 36 of 41
History of Machine Translation

The automatic translation of text from one natural language (the source) to another is known as
machine translation (the target). It was one of the first applications for computers that were
imagined (Weaver, 1949).
There have been three primary uses of machine translation in the past:
 Rough translation, such as that given by free internet services, conveys the “gist” of a
foreign statement or document but is riddled with inaccuracies. Companies utilize pre-
edited translation to publish documentation and sales materials in several languages.
 The original source content is written in a limited language that makes machine
translation easier, and the outputs are often edited by a person to rectify any flaws.
 Restricted-source translation is totally automated, but only for highly stereotyped
language like a weather report.
What are the key approaches in Machine Translation?

In machine translation, the original text is decoded and then encoded into the target language
through two step process that involves various approaches employed by language translation
technology to facilitate the translation mechanism.
1. Rule-Based Machine Translation

Rule-based machine translation relies on these resources to ensure precise translation of
specific content. The process involves the software parsing input text, generating a
transitional representation, and then converting it into the target language with reference
to grammar rules and dictionaries.
2. Statistical Machine Translation

Rather than depending on linguistic rules, statistical machine translation utilizes machine
learning for text translation. Machine learning algorithms examine extensive human
translations, identifying statistical patterns. When tasked with translating a new source
text, the software intelligently guesses based on the statistical likelihood of specific
words or phrases being associated with others in the target language.

Page 37 of 41
3. Neural Machine Translation (NMT)

A neural network, inspired by the human brain, is a network of interconnected nodes
functioning as an information system. Input data passes through these nodes to produce
an output. Neural machine translation software utilizes neural networks to process vast
datasets, with each node contributing a specific change from source text to target text
until the final result is obtained at the output node.
4. Hybrid Machine Translation

Hybrid machine translation tools integrate multiple machine translation models within a
single software application, leveraging a combination of approaches to enhance the
overall effectiveness of a singular translation model. This process typically involves the
incorporation of rule-based and statistical machine translation subsystems, with the
ultimate translation output being a synthesis of the results generated by each subsystem.
Why we need Machine Translation in NLP?

Machine translation in Natural Language Processing (NLP) has several benefits, including:
 Improved communication: Machine translation makes it easier for people who speak
different languages to communicate with each other, breaking down language barriers
and facilitating international cooperation.
 Cost savings: Machine translation is typically faster and less expensive than human
translation, making it a cost-effective solution for businesses and organizations that need
to translate large amounts of text.
 Increased accessibility: Machine translation can make digital content more accessible to
users who speak different languages, improving the user experience and expanding the
reach of digital products and services.
 Improved efficiency: Machine translation can streamline the translation process, allowing
businesses and organizations to quickly translate large amounts of text and improving
overall efficiency.

Page 38 of 41
 Language learning: Machine translation can be a valuable tool for language learners,
helping them to understand the meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases and improving
their language skills.
What is the application of Machine Translation?

Machine translation has many applications, including:
 Cross-border communication: Machine translation allows people from different countries
to communicate with each other more easily, breaking down language barriers and
facilitating international cooperation.
 Localization: Machine translation can be used to quickly and efficiently translate
websites, software, and other digital content into different languages, making them more
accessible to users around the world.
 Business: Machine translation can be used by businesses to translate documents,
contracts, and other important materials, enabling them to work with partners and
customers from around the world.
 Education: Machine translation can be used in education to help students learn new
languages and improve their language skills.
 Government: Machine translation can be used by governments to translate official
documents and communications, improving accessibility and transparency.

Page 39 of 41
Robotic Planning and Perception
 Perception is a process to interpret, acquire, select and then organize the sensory information
that is captured from the real world.
For example: Human beings have sensory receptors such as touch, taste, smell, sight and
hearing. So, the information received from these receptors is transmitted to human brain to
organize the received information.
 According to the received information, action is taken by interacting with the environment to
manipulate and navigate the objects.
 Perception and action are very important concepts in the field of Robotics. The following
figures show the complete autonomous robot.
 There is one important difference between the artificial intelligence program and robot. The AI
program performs in a computer stimulated environment, while the robot performs in the
physical world.
For example:
In chess, an AI program can be able to make a move by searching different nodes and has no
facility to touch or sense the physical world.
However, the chess playing robot can make a move and grasp the pieces by interacting with the
physical world.

Page 40 of 41
Robotics Planning
Definition: Robotics planning involves the process of generating a sequence of actions for a
robot to achieve a specific goal while navigating its environment and considering various
constraints and uncertainties.
Components of Robotics Planning:

 Perception: Before planning can begin, the robot needs to perceive its environment
using sensors like cameras, LIDAR, or depth sensors. Perception algorithms process
sensor data to identify objects, obstacles, and other relevant features in the environment.
 State Representation: The robot creates a representation of its current state, including
its position, orientation, and the state of the environment. This representation serves as
the basis for planning future actions.
 Goal Specification: The robot determines its objective or goal based on task
requirements or user commands. Goals can vary from simple tasks like reaching a
destination to more complex objectives like object manipulation or exploration.
 Path Planning: Path planning involves finding a collision-free path from the robot's
current state to its goal while optimizing for factors like distance, time, or energy.
Algorithms like A*, RRT, or D* are commonly used for path planning.
 Motion Planning: Once a path is determined, the robot plans its physical motions to
execute the planned actions safely and efficiently. Motion planning considers factors like
kinematics, dynamics, and collision avoidance.
 Execution and Monitoring: The planned actions are executed by the robot's actuators,
while sensors provide feedback on the robot's progress. The robot continuously monitors
its environment and adjusts its plan in real-time to account for unexpected obstacles or
changes.
Challenges in Robotics Planning:

 High Dimensionality: The state space of robotic systems can be high-dimensional,
making planning computationally challenging. Techniques like state space discretization
or sampling-based methods are used to address this challenge.

Page 41 of 41
 Uncertainty: Robots often operate in uncertain environments where sensor noise,

actuator errors, or unpredictable events can occur. Planning algorithms need to account
for uncertainty and make decisions robustly.
 Real-time Constraints: Many robotic applications require planning and execution to be
performed in real-time. Planning algorithms must be efficient and scalable to meet real-
time requirements.
 Dynamic Environments: Environments may change dynamically due to moving
obstacles, changes in lighting conditions, or other factors. Planning algorithms need to
adapt to these changes and replan if necessary.
Applications of Robotics Planning:

 Industrial Automation: Planning is used in manufacturing environments for tasks like
robot arm motion planning, assembly sequencing, and task scheduling.
 Autonomous Vehicles: Autonomous vehicles use planning algorithms to navigate
through traffic, avoid obstacles, and reach their destinations safely.
 Service Robotics: Planning enables service robots to perform tasks like household
chores, delivery, or assisting people with disabilities.
 Agricultural Robotics: Robots are used in agriculture for tasks like planting, harvesting,
and pest control, where planning is essential for efficient operation.
