Natural Language Processing (NLP) is Prime Driver in AIaaS Market Growth

According to becominghuman.ai, NLP is defined as "the technology used to aid computers to understand the human’s natural language. The ultimate objective of NLP is to read, decipher, understand, and make sense of the human languages in a manner that is valuable." NLP is a subfield of machine learning and is used in various technologies including:

  • Virtual assistants including Google Home, Amazon's Alexa, and Apple's Siri
  • Google Translate
  • Microsoft Word

The article goes on to explain why NLP is so challenging:

While humans can easily master a language, the ambiguity and imprecise characteristics of the natural languages are what make NLP difficult for machines to implement.

Importance of AIaaS in Banking

Applications of AIaaS can be applied to many different aspects of banking including:

  • Process improvements
  • Mitigating risk and fraud detection
  • Customer service
  • Data quality and analytics
  • Customer onboarding

In order for banks to take full advantage the latest innovations and technologies, we feel engaging with multiple third party technology partners specializing in AI delivers a "best-in-breed" approach.

For check processing, technology partners are operationalizing AI, achieving results surpassing traditional OCR/ICR technologies by increasing read rates to over 99% and minimizing error rates to less than 0.5% -- levels achievable previously only by humans. Additionally, AI applied to image analysis and fraud detection dramatically improves detection rates and minimizes false positives.

The applications of AI are limitless, but success can only be achieved when banks and technology partners work together.
