Entity Recognition

The online marketplace for cars wanted to improve search for users by adding full-text and voice search, as well as advanced search with specific options. We built a system application using Machine Learning and NLP methods to process text queries, and the Google Cloud Speech API to process audio queries. This helped greatly improve the user experience by providing a more intuitive and efficient search option for them.

Challenges & solutions

Challenge

To add a full-text and voice search for users across the entire platform.

Solution

Server application as an optimal solution for the marketplace.

Challenge

To transform the search into an advanced search with a specific structured view according to specific parameters: condition, mileage, price, body style, make, model, seller type, transmission, exterior color, etc.

Solution

Tool which in the process of receiving user queries automatically divides them into two corresponding groups:
- Text Queries - natural language processing #NLP using Machine Learning models. The text is cleaned up, the key elements of the query are identified, and the final result is rendered. The average processing speed is less than 100 ms;
- Audio Queries - natural language processing NLP using the Google Cloud Speech API application.

Consultation icon

Step 1 of 5

Free consultation

It's a good time to get info about each other, share values and discuss your project in detail. We will advise you on a solution and try to help to understand if we are a perfect match for you.
Analysis icon

Step 2 of 5

Discovering and feasibility analysis

One of our core values is flexibility, hence we work with either one page high level requirements or with a full pack of tech docs.  At this stage, we need to ensure that we understand the full scope of the project. Receive from you or perform a set of interviews and prepare the following documents: list of features with detailed description and acceptance criteria; list of fields that need to be scraped, solution architecture. Ultimately we make a project plan which we strictly follow. We are a result-oriented company, and that is one of our core values as well.
Solutions icon

Step 3 of 5

Solution development

At this stage, we develop the scraping engine core logic. We run multiple tests to ensure that the solution is working properly. We map the fields and run the scraping. While scraping, we keep the full raw data so the final model can be enlarged easily. Ultimately we store data in any database and run quality assurance tests.

Step 2 of 5

Discovering and feasibility analysis

One of our core values is flexibility, hence we work with either one page high level requirements or with a full pack of tech docs.  

In Data Science, there are numerous models and approaches, so at this stage we perform a set of interviews in order to define project objectives. We elaborate and discuss a set of hypotheses and assumptions. We create solution architecture, a project plan, and a list of insights or features that we have to achieve.
Solutions icon

Step 3 of 5

Solution development

The work starts with data gathering, data cleaning and analysis. Feature engineering helps to determine your target variable and build several models for the initial review. Further modeling requires validating results and selecting models for the further development. Ultimately, we interpret the results. Nevertheless, data modeling is about a process that requires lots of back and forth iterations. We are result focused, as it’s one of our core values as well.
Data delivery icon

Step 4 of 5

Solution delivery

Data Science solutions can be a list of insights or a variety of different models that consume data and return results. Though we have over 15 years of expertise in data engineering, we expect client’s participation in the project.  While modeling, we provide midterm results so you can always see where we are and provide us with feedback. By the way, a high-level of communication is also our core value.

Success stories

Check out a few case studies that show why DATAFOREST will meet your business needs.

Client Identification

The client wanted to provide the highest quality service to its customers. To achieve this, they needed to find the best way to collect information about customer preferences and build an optimal tracking system for customer behavior. To solve this challenge, we built a recommendation and customer behavior tracking system using advanced analytics, Face Recognition, Computer Vision, and AI technologies. This system helped the club staff to build customer loyalty and create a top-notch experience for their customers.
