Company classification using zero-shot learning
share
In recent years, natural language processing (NLP) has become increasingly important in a variety of business applications, including sentiment analysis, text classification, and named entity recognition. In this paper, we propose an approach for company classification using NLP and zero-shot learning. Our method utilizes pre-trained transformer models to extract features from company descriptions, and then applies zero-shot learning to classify companies into relevant categories without the need for specific training data for each category. We evaluate our approach on publicly available datasets of textual descriptions of companies, and demonstrate that it can streamline the process of company classification, thereby reducing the time and resources required in traditional approaches such as the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS). The results show that this method has potential for automation of company classification, making it a promising avenue for future research in this area.
