Major Challenges of Natural Language Processing

In this evolving landscape of artificial intelligence(AI), Natural Language Processing(NLP)

stands out as an advanced technology that fills the gap between humans and machines. In
this article, we will discover the Major Challenges of Natural language
Processing(NLP) faced by organizations. Understanding these challenges helps you
explore the advanced NLP but also leverages its capabilities to revolutionize How we
interact with machines and everything from customer service automation to complicated
data analysis.

What is Natural Language Processing? (NLP)

Natural Language is a powerful tool of Artificial Intelligence that enables computers to
understand, interpret and generate human readable text that is meaningful. NLP is a method
used for processing and analyzing the text data. In Natural Language Processing the text is
tokenized means the text is break into tokens, it could be words, phrases or character. It is
the first step in NLP task. The text is cleaned and preprocessed before applying Natural
Language Processing technique.
Natural Language Processing technique is used in machine translation, healthcare, finance,
customer service, sentiment analysis and extracting valuable information from the text data.
NLP is also used in text generation and language modeling. Natural Processing technique
can also be used in answering the questions. Many companies uses Natural Language
Processing technique to solve their text related problems. Tools such as ChatGPT, Google
Bard that trained on large corpus of test of data uses Natural Language Processing
technique to solve the user queries.

10 Major Challenges of Natural Language Processing(NLP)

Natural Language Processing (NLP) faces various challenges due to the complexity and
diversity of human language. Let's discuss 10 major challenges in NLP:
1. Language differences
The human language and understanding is rich and intricated and there many languages
spoken by humans. Human language is diverse and thousand of human languages spoken
around the world with having its own grammar, vocabular and cultural nuances. Human
cannot understand all the languages and the productivity of human language is high. There
is ambiguity in natural language since same words and phrases can have different meanings
and different context. This is the major challenges in understating of natural language.
There is a complex syntactic structures and grammatical rules of natural languages. The
rules are such as word order, verb, conjugation, tense, aspect and agreement. There is rich
semantic content in human language that allows speaker to convey a wide range of meaning
through words and sentences. Natural Language is pragmatics which means that how
language can be used in context to approach communication goals. The human language
evolves time to time with the processes such as lexical change.
2.Training Data
Training data is a curated collection of input-output pairs, where the input represents the
features or attributes of the data, and the output is the corresponding label or
target. Training data is composed of both the features (inputs) and their corresponding
labels (outputs). For NLP, features might include text data, and labels could be categories,
sentiments, or any other relevant annotations.
It helps the model generalize patterns from the training set to make predictions or
classifications on new, previously unseen data.
3. Development Time and Resource Requirements
Development Time and Resource Requirements for Natural Language Processing
(NLP) projects depends on various factors consisting the task complexity, size and quality
of the data, availability of existing tools and libraries, and the team of expert involved. Here
are some key points:
 Complexity of the task: Task such as classification of text or analyzing the sentiment
of the text may require less time compared to more complex tasks such as machine
translation or answering the questions.
 Availability and Quality Data: For Natural Language Processing models requires
high-quality of annotated data. It can be time consuming to collect, annotate, and
preprocess the large text datasets and can be resource-intensive specially for tasks that
requires specialized domain knowledge or fine-tuned annotations.
 Selection of algorithm and development of model: It is difficult to choose the right
algorithms machine learning algorithms that is best for Natural Language Processing
task.
 Evaluation and Training: It requires powerful computation resources that consists of
powerful hardware (GPUs or TPUs) and time for training the algorithms iteration. It is
also important to evaluate the performance of the model with the help of suitable
metrics and validation techniques for conforming the quality of the results.
4. Navigating Phrasing Ambiguities in NLP
It is a crucial aspect to navigate phrasing ambiguities because of the inherent complexity of
human languages. The cause of phrasing ambiguities is when a phrase can be evaluated in
multiple ways that leads to uncertainty in understanding the meaning. Here are some key
points for navigating phrasing ambiguities in NLP:
 Contextual Understanding: Contextual information like previous sentences, topic
focus, or conversational cues can give valuable clues for solving ambiguities.
 Semantic Analysis: The content of the semantic text is analyzed to find meaning based
on word, lexical relationships and semantic roles. Tools such as word sense
disambiguation, semantics role labeling can be helpful in solving phrasing ambiguities.
 Syntactic Analysis: The syntactic structure of the sentence is analyzed to find the
possible evaluation based on grammatical relationships and syntactic patterns.
 Pragmatic Analysis: Pragmatic factors such as intentions of speaker, implicatures to
infer meaning of a phrase. This analysis consists of understanding the pragmatic
context.
 Statistical methods: Statistical methods and machine learning models are used to learn
patterns from data and make predictions about the input phrase.
5. Misspellings and Grammatical Errors
Overcoming Misspelling and Grammatical Error are the basic challenges in NLP, as there
are different forms of linguistics noise that can impact accuracy of understanding and
analysis. Here are some key points for solving misspelling and grammatical error in NLP:
 Spell Checking: Implement spell-check algorithms and dictionaries to find and correct
misspelled words.
 Text Normalization: The is normalized by converting into a standard format which
may contains tasks such as conversion of text to lowercase, removal of punctuation and
special characters, and expanding contractions.
 Tokenization: The text is split into individual tokens with the help of tokenization
techniques. This technique allows to identify and isolate misspelled words and
grammatical error that makes it easy to correct the phrase.
 Language Models: With the help of language models that is trained on large corpus of
data to predict the likelihood of word or phrase that is correct or not based on its
context.
6. Mitigating Innate Biases in NLP Algorithms
It is a crucial step of mitigating innate biases in NLP algorithm for conforming fairness,
equity, and inclusivity in natural language processing applications. Here are some key
points for mitigating biases in NLP algorithms.
 Collection of data and annotation: It is very important to confirm that the training
data used to develop NLP algorithms is diverse, representative and free from biases.
 Analysis and Detection of bias: Apply bias detection and analysis method on training
data to find biases that is based on demographic factors such as race, gender, age.
 Data Preprocessing: Data Preprocessing the most important process to train data to
mitigate biases like debiasing word embeddings, balance class distributions and
augmenting underrepresented samples.
 Fair representation learning: Natural Language Processing models are trained to learn
fair representations that are invariant to protect attributes like race or gender.
 Auditing and Evaluation of Models: Natural Language models are evaluated for
fairness and bias with the help of metrics and audits. NLP models are evaluated on
diverse datasets and perform post-hoc analyses to find and mitigate innate biases in
NLP algorithms.
7. Words with Multiple Meanings
Words with multiple meaning plays a lexical challenge in Nature Language
Processing because of the ambiguity of the word. These words with multiple meaning are
known as polysemous or homonymous have different meaning based on the context in
which they are used. Here are some key points for representing the lexical challenge plays
by words with multiple meanings in NLP:
 Semantic analysis: Implement semantic analysis techniques to find the underlying
meaning of the word in various contexts. Word embedding or semantic networks are the
semantic representation can find the semantic similarity and relatedness between
different word sense.
 Domain specific knowledge: It is very important to have a specific domain-knowledge
in Natural Processing tasks that can be helpful in providing valuable context and
constraints for determining the correct context of the word.
 Multi-word Expression (MWEs): The meaning of the entire sentence or phrase is
analyzed to disambiguate the word with multiple meanings.
 Knowledge Graphs and Ontologies: Apply knowledge graphs and ontologies to find
the semantic relationships between different words context.
8. Addressing Multilingualism
It is very important to address language diversity and multilingualism in Natural Language
Processing to confirm that NLP systems can handle the text data in multiple languages
effectively. Here are some key points to address language diversity and multilingualism:
 Multilingual Corpora: Multilingual corpus consists of text data in various languages
and serve as valuable resources for training NLP models and systems.
 Cross-Lingual Transfer Learning: This is a type of techniques that is used to transfer
knowledge learned from one language to another.
 Language Identification: Design language identification models to automatically
detect the language of a given text.
 Machine Translation: Machine Translation provides the facility to communicate and
inform access across language barriers and can be used as preprocessing step for
multilingual NLP tasks.
9. Reducing Uncertainty and False Positives in NLP
It is very crucial task to reduce uncertainty and false positives in Natural Language Process
(NLP) to improve the accuracy and reliability of the NLP models. Here are some key points
to approach the solution:
 Probabilistic Models: Use probabilistic models to figure out the uncertainty in
predictions. Probabilistic models such as Bayesian networks gives probabilistic
estimates of outputs that allow uncertainty quantification and better decision making.
 Confidence Scores: The confidence scores or probability estimates is calculated for
NLP predictions to assess the certainty of the output of the model. Confidence scores
helps us to identify cases where the model is uncertain or likely to produce false
positives.
 Threshold Tuning: For the classification tasks the decision thresholds is adjusted to
make the balance between sensitivity (recall) and specificity. False Positives in NLP
can be reduced by setting the appropriate thresholds.
 Ensemble Methods: Apply ensemble learning techniques to join multiple model to
reduce uncertainty.
10. Facilitating Continuous Conversations with NLP
Facilitating continuous conversations with NLP includes the development of system that
understands and responds to human language in real-time that enables seamless interaction
between users and machines. Implementing real time natural language processing pipelines
gives to capability to analyze and interpret user input as it is received involving algorithms
are optimized and systems for low latency processing to confirm quick responses to user
queries and inputs.
Building an NLP models that can maintain the context throughout a conversation. The
understanding of context enables systems to interpret user intent, conversation history
tracking, and generating relevant responses based on the ongoing dialogue. Apply intent
recognition algorithm to find the underlying goals and intentions expressed by users in their
messages.
How to overcome NLP Challenges
It requires a combination of innovative technologies, experts of domain, and
methodological approached to over the challenges in NLP. Here are some key points to
overcome the challenge of NLP tasks:
 Quantity and Quality of data: High quality of data and diverse data is used to train the
NLP algorithms effectively. Data augmentation, data synthesis, crowdsourcing are the
techniques to address data scarcity issues.
 Ambiguity: The NLP algorithm should be trained to disambiguate the words and
phrases.
 Out-of-vocabulary Words: The techniques are implemented to handle out-of-
vocabulary words such as tokenization, character-level modeling, and vocabulary
expansion.
 Lack of Annotated Data: Techniques such transfer learning and pre-training can be
used to transfer knowledge from large dataset to specific tasks with limited labeled data.

What is an Expert System?

An expert system is a computer program that is designed to solve complex problems and to
provide decision-making ability like a human expert. It performs this by extracting
knowledge from its knowledge base using the reasoning and inference rules according to the
user queries.
The expert system is a part of AI, and the first ES was developed in the year 1970, which was
the first successful approach of artificial intelligence. It solves the most complex issue as an
expert by extracting the knowledge stored in its knowledge base. The system helps in
decision making for compsex problems using both facts and heuristics like a human
expert. It is called so because it contains the expert knowledge of a specific domain and can
solve any complex problem of that particular domain. These systems are designed for a
specific domain, such as medicine, science, etc.

The performance of an expert system is based on the expert's knowledge stored in its
knowledge base. The more knowledge stored in the KB, the more that system improves its
performance. One of the common examples of an ES is a suggestion of spelling errors while
typing in the Google search box.

Below is the block diagram that represents the working of an expert system:

Note: It is important to remember that an expert system is not used to replace the human
experts; instead, it is used to assist the human in making a complex decision. These systems
do not have human capabilities of thinking and work on the basis of the knowledge base of
the particular domain.
Below are some popular examples of the Expert System:

o DENDRAL: It was an artificial intelligence project that was made as a chemical

analysis expert system. It was used in organic chemistry to detect unknown organic
molecules with the help of their mass spectra and knowledge base of chemistry.
o MYCIN: It was one of the earliest backward chaining expert systems that was
designed to find the bacteria causing infections like bacteraemia and meningitis. It
was also used for the recommendation of antibiotics and the diagnosis of blood
clotting diseases.
o PXDES: It is an expert system that is used to determine the type and level of lung
cancer. To determine the disease, it takes a picture from the upper body, which looks
like the shadow. This shadow identifies the type and degree of harm.
o CaDeT: The CaDet expert system is a diagnostic support system that can detect
cancer at early stages.
Characteristics of Expert System
o High Performance: The expert system provides high performance for solving any
type of complex problem of a specific domain with high efficiency and accuracy.
o Understandable: It responds in a way that can be easily understandable by the user.
It can take input in human language and provides the output in the same way.
o Reliable: It is much reliable for generating an efficient and accurate output.
o Highly responsive: ES provides the result for any complex query within a very short
period of time.

Components of Expert System

An expert system mainly consists of three components:

o User Interface
o Inference Engine
o Knowledge Base

1. User Interface
With the help of a user interface, the expert system interacts with the user, takes queries as an
input in a readable format, and passes it to the inference engine. After getting the response
from the inference engine, it displays the output to the user. In other words, it is an interface
that helps a non-expert user to communicate with the expert system to find a solution.

2. Inference Engine(Rules of Engine)

o The inference engine is known as the brain of the expert system as it is the main
processing unit of the system. It applies inference rules to the knowledge base to
derive a conclusion or deduce new information. It helps in deriving an error-free
solution of queries asked by the user.
o With the help of an inference engine, the system extracts the knowledge from the
knowledge base.
o There are two types of inference engine:
o Deterministic Inference engine: The conclusions drawn from this type of inference
engine are assumed to be true. It is based on facts and rules.
 o Probabilistic Inference engine: This type of inference engine contains uncertainty in
conclusions, and based on the probability.
Inference engine uses the below modes to derive the solutions:

o Forward Chaining: It starts from the known facts and rules, and applies the
inference rules to add their conclusion to the known facts.
o Backward Chaining: It is a backward reasoning method that starts from the goal and
works backward to prove the known facts.

3. Knowledge Base

o The knowledgebase is a type of storage that stores knowledge acquired from the
different experts of the particular domain. It is considered as big storage of
knowledge. The more the knowledge base, the more precise will be the Expert
System.
o It is similar to a database that contains information and rules of a particular domain or
subject.
o One can also view the knowledge base as collections of objects and their attributes.
Such as a Lion is an object and its attributes are it is a mammal, it is not a domestic
animal, etc.
Components of Knowledge Base

o Factual Knowledge: The knowledge which is based on facts and accepted by

knowledge engineers comes under factual knowledge.
o Heuristic Knowledge: This knowledge is based on practice, the ability to guess,
evaluation, and experiences.
Knowledge Representation: It is used to formalize the knowledge stored in the knowledge
base using the If-else rules.

Knowledge Acquisitions: It is the process of extracting, organizing, and structuring the

domain knowledge, specifying the rules to acquire the knowledge from various experts, and
store that knowledge into the knowledge base.

Development of Expert System

Here, we will explain the working of an expert system by taking an example of MYCIN ES.
Below are some steps to build an MYCIN:

o Firstly, ES should be fed with expert knowledge. In the case of MYCIN, human
experts specialized in the medical field of bacterial infection, provide information
about the causes, symptoms, and other knowledge in that domain.
o The KB of the MYCIN is updated successfully. In order to test it, the doctor provides
a new problem to it. The problem is to identify the presence of the bacteria by
inputting the details of a patient, including the symptoms, current condition, and
medical history.
o The ES will need a questionnaire to be filled by the patient to know the general
information about the patient, such as gender, age, etc.
o Now the system has collected all the information, so it will find the solution for the
problem by applying if-then rules using the inference engine and using the facts
stored within the KB.
 o In the end, it will provide a response to the patient by using the user interface.
Participants in the development of Expert System

There are three primary participants in the building of Expert System:

1. Expert: The success of an ES much depends on the knowledge provided by human

experts. These experts are those persons who are specialized in that specific domain.
2. Knowledge Engineer: Knowledge engineer is the person who gathers the knowledge
from the domain experts and then codifies that knowledge to the system according to
the formalism.
3. End-User: This is a particular person or a group of people who may not be experts,
and working on the expert system needs the solution or advice for his queries, which
are complex.

Why Expert System?

Before using any technology, we must have an idea about why to use that technology and
hence the same for the ES. Although we have human experts in every field, then what is the
need to develop a computer-based system. So below are the points that are describing the
need of the ES:

1. No memory Limitations: It can store as much data as required and can memorize it
at the time of its application. But for human experts, there are some limitations to
memorize all things at every time.
2. High Efficiency: If the knowledge base is updated with the correct knowledge, then it
provides a highly efficient output, which may not be possible for a human.
3. Expertise in a domain: There are lots of human experts in each domain, and they all
have different skills, different experiences, and different skills, so it is not easy to get
a final output for the query. But if we put the knowledge gained from human experts
into the expert system, then it provides an efficient output by mixing all the facts and
knowledge
4. Not affected by emotions: These systems are not affected by human emotions such
as fatigue, anger, depression, anxiety, etc.. Hence the performance remains constant.
5. High security: These systems provide high security to resolve any query.
 6. Considers all the facts: To respond to any query, it checks and considers all the
available facts and provides the result accordingly. But it is possible that a human
expert may not consider some facts due to any reason.
7. Regular updates improve the performance: If there is an issue in the result
provided by the expert systems, we can improve the performance of the system by
updating the knowledge base.

Capabilities of the Expert System

Below are some capabilities of an Expert System:

o Advising: It is capable of advising the human being for the query of any domain from
the particular ES.
o Provide decision-making capabilities: It provides the capability of decision making
in any domain, such as for making any financial decision, decisions in medical
science, etc.
o Demonstrate a device: It is capable of demonstrating any new products such as its
features, specifications, how to use that product, etc.
o Problem-solving: It has problem-solving capabilities.
o Explaining a problem: It is also capable of providing a detailed description of an
input problem.
o Interpreting the input: It is capable of interpreting the input given by the user.
o Predicting results: It can be used for the prediction of a result.
o Diagnosis: An ES designed for the medical field is capable of diagnosing a disease
without using multiple components as it already contains various inbuilt medical
tools.

Advantages of Expert System

o These systems are highly reproducible.

o They can be used for risky places where the human presence is not safe.
o Error possibilities are less if the KB contains correct knowledge.
o The performance of these systems remains steady as it is not affected by emotions,
tension, or fatigue.
o They provide a very high speed to respond to a particular query.

Limitations of Expert System

o The response of the expert system may get wrong if the knowledge base contains the
wrong information.
o Like a human being, it cannot produce a creative output for different scenarios.
o Its maintenance and development costs are very high.
o Knowledge acquisition for designing is much difficult.
o For each domain, we require a specific ES, which is one of the big limitations.
o It cannot learn from itself and hence requires manual updates.
Applications of Expert System

o In designing and manufacturing domain

It can be broadly used for designing and manufacturing physical devices such as
camera lenses and automobiles.
o In the knowledge domain
These systems are primarily used for publishing the relevant knowledge to the users.
The two popular ES used for this domain is an advisor and a tax advisor.
o In the finance domain
In the finance industries, it is used to detect any type of possible fraud, suspicious
activity, and advise bankers that if they should provide loans for business or not.
o In the diagnosis and troubleshooting of devices
In medical diagnosis, the ES system is used, and it was the first area where these
systems were used.
o Planning and Scheduling
The expert systems can also be used for planning and scheduling some particular
tasks for achieving the goal of that task.

How do Robots and Artificial Intelligence work together?

The answer is simple. An artificial intelligence robot, or AI robot, gives robots a computer
vision to navigate, sense, and calculate their reactions accordingly. Artificial intelligence
robots learn to perform their tasks from humans through machine learning, which is a part
of computer programming and AI.
Since the time self-driving cars coined the term Artificial Intelligence in 1956, it has
created a lot of sensation. This is because an artificial intelligence robot has the power to
give life to robots and empower them to take their decisions on their own. Depending on
the use and the tasks that the robot has to perform, different types of AI are used. They are
as follows:
1. Weak AI
Weak AI, also known as Narrow AI is a type of AI is used to create a simulation of human
thought and interaction. The robots have predefined commands and responses. However,
the robots do not understand the commands they do only the work of retrieving the
appropriate response when the suitable command is given. The most suitable example of
this is Siri and Alexa.
The AI in these devices only executes the tasks as demanded by the owner.
2. Strong Artificial Intelligence
Strong Artificial Intelligence is a type of AI is used in those robots who perform their tasks
on their own. They do not need any kind of supervision once they are programmed to do
the task correctly. This type of AI is widely used nowadays as many of the things are
becoming automated and one of the most interesting examples is self-driving cars and
internet cars
This type of AI is also used in humanoid robots, which can sense their environment quite
well and interact with their surroundings. Also, robotic surgeons are becoming popular day
by day as there is no human intervention required at all.
3. Specialized Artificial Intelligence
Specialized artificial intelligence is used when the robot needs to perform only specified
special tasks. It is restricted only to limited tasks. This includes mainly industrial robots
which perform specified and repetitive tasks like painting, tightening, etc.
