Classification techniques involve assigning predefined categories to open-ended text to organize, structure, and categorize various types of content. This process is applied to a wide range of text data, such as documents, medical records, emails, files, and content across web pages or social media platforms.
By classifying text, organizations can better manage and analyze information, improving tasks such as content filtering, sentiment analysis, and automated decision-making. Classification is an essential tool in many applications, including email spam detection, topic categorization, and social media monitoring.
