Identify the text field

When you analyze data with the Content Mining application, Discovery determines which field contains the body of the text to be analyzed. It does so by looking for the field with the highest average word count.

You can check which field is designated as the main text body field, and change it or augment it by changing the index type of another field.

1. Complete the steps in Editing a collection to get the collection into edit mode.

2. Click the Fields tab. Check the Index type column to find the field designated with the Analyzable text content index type.

   You can change the field or set more than one text field to be an Analyzable text content index type.

3. Click Save.

If you select multiple fields to analyze, you cannot see the facet analysis for only one field. To view the analysis for multiple fields, you must group them.

Group multiple text fields

1. Complete the steps in Editing a collection to get the collection into edit mode.

2. Click the Contextual view tab, and then click Add view.

3. Complete the following fields:

   • Name: The name or label of your grouped view.
   • Id: The alphanumeric ID that Discovery uses when you submit a text query. For example, ans1.
   • Fields: The text fields that have the Analyzable text content setting applied. Select one or multiple text fields that you want to group for facet analysis.

4. Click Add.

   Repeat this task if you want to add more text fields that you want to group for facet analysis.

5. Click Save.

Now you can return to the data analysis page for your collection. From the Facet analysis panel, you can click Contextual view selection to see the text fields that you grouped. You can select one of the text fields to view the facet analysis for that field.

Enrich your collection

Discovery provides built-in natural language processing models, such as the Entities enrichment that can recognize mentions of commonly known things, such as business or location names and other types of proper nouns. You can apply these built-in NLP enrichments to your collection.

You can also apply a document classifier enrichment that you created in the Content Mining application to your collection.

Alternatively, you can apply enrichments that were built in other projects in the same service instance to the collection in your content mining project. For example, you can apply a dictionary or text classifier that was built in another project in the same service instance to your collection.

To apply enrichments to your collection, complete the following steps:

1. Complete the steps in Editing a collection to get the collection into edit mode.
2. Click the Enrichment tab, and then select the enrichments that you want to apply to your collection.
3. Click Save.
