Leveraging NLP in Knowledge Management: a Case Study of Lab Document Management

In a pioneering effort to streamline laboratory knowledge management, a sophisticated system leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) and machine learning models, including BERT and GPT, was developed to efficiently manage a massive repository of scanned documents. By applying advanced techniques such as topic modeling, document clustering, and semantic similarity analysis, this system significantly improved document accessibility, categorization, and retrieval. The creation of a detailed ontology, integrated with public data sources, further enhanced data interoperability and research collaboration, showcasing the transformative potential of NLP in handling complex data landscapes.
