This webinar talks about converting unstructured e-commerce text into structured format by leveraging multi-task deep learning.

The existing problem: e-sellers upload text information in unstructured or semi-structured format. E-commerce engines use naive text search techniques as a result of which search engine performance suffers because of less number irrelevant results. Can we convert unstructured text into a structured (key:value) format with high precision and high recall?

Challenges: Presence of multiple products in text description (e.g., blue top goes well with black jeans, which is the primary product?), semantic dis-ambiguity (e.g., 'Blue' as brand vs color, top as filler vs fashion category), context spread across long sentences (e.g., this is stunning red color top, ....., this sleeveless piece is a gem, ....) scale: more than 4 m e-fashion listings crawled, parsed and converted into structured format.

Let us dive into the solutions with this webinar.
