Leverage Unstructured Data to Become More Competitive, Responsive, and Innovative In Mining the Talk , two leading-edge IBM researchers introduce a revolutionary new approach to unlocking the business value hidden in virtually any form of unstructured data-from word processing documents to websites, emails to instant messages. The authors review the business drivers that have made unstructured data so important-and explain why conventional methods for working with it are inadequate. Then, writing for business professionals-not just data mining specialists-they walk step-by-step through exploring your unstructured data, understanding it, and analyzing it effectively. Next, you'll put IBM's techniques to work in five key areas: learning from your customer interactions; hearing the voices of customers when they're not talking to you; discovering the "collective consciousness" of your own organization; enhancing innovation; and spotting emerging trends. Whatever your organization, Mining the Talk offers you breakthrough opportunities to become more responsive, agile, and competitive.
