Azure AI-Language Services is a cloud-based service that offers advanced language understanding capabilities through Natural Language Processing (NLP) features. It comprises of a set of services and tools tailored to facilitate natural language understanding and processing tasks within applications. These services leverage cutting-edge machine learning algorithms and advanced linguistic techniques to extract meaning from text, understand user intents, and enable seamless interactions between humans and machines.
Azure AI-Language services offer a diverse range of features and capabilities to address various language-related tasks and challenges. Some of the key features include:
The Text Analytics feature allows you to extract valuable insights from your text data. It includes sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, key phrase extraction, and language detection. By analyzing the sentiment of text, identifying entities, and extracting key phrases, you can gain a deeper understanding of your data and make informed decisions.
QnA Maker simplifies the process of creating conversational question-answering systems. It enables you to easily build a knowledge base from various sources and automatically generates question-and-answer pairs. With QnA Maker, you can create chatbots and virtual assistants that provide accurate and context-aware responses to user queries.
LUIS, or Language Understanding Intelligent Service, empowers your applications to understand natural language input and take appropriate actions. It allows you to create custom language models, define intents, and extract entities from user queries. LUIS enables your applications to intelligently interpret user instructions, making them more capable and user-friendly.
Language Studio is a powerful tool that enables you to harness the full potential of Azure AI-Language Services without any coding. It provides a user-friendly interface to interact with the available features and customize them as per your requirements. Language Studio allows you to train your own AI models, making it easier to build tailored language-understanding solutions.
While previously available services such as LUIS (Language Understanding Intelligent Service) and QnA Maker addressed specific language-related tasks, the introduction of Azure AI-language services brings forth several notable advancements and enhancements.
If you have been utilizing Text Analytics, QnA Maker, or Language Understanding (LUIS) services, the process of migrating to Azure AI-Language is seamless. This migration lets you transition your existing applications effortlessly to the new unified language service. Azure AI-Language provides a comprehensive migration guide with step-by-step instructions on how to migrate from the previously available services to Azure AI Language.
By migrating to Azure AI-Language, you can unlock a wide range of features, including named entity recognition, personally identifying information (PII) and health information detection, language detection, sentiment analysis, summarization, key phrase extraction, entity linking, custom text classification, conversational language understanding, orchestration workflow, question answering, and custom text analytics for health.
Azure AI-Language Services offers multiple avenues for integration into your applications.
If you have specific compliance or security requirements that demand on-premises deployment, Azure AI-Language Services has you covered. It provides Docker containers that allow you to deploy the service closer to your data, ensuring compliance with data privacy regulations and enhancing security.
