Natural language understanding (NLU) is a subfield of natural language processing (NLP) that focuses on the ability of machines to comprehend and interpret natural language input. NLU involves analyzing the meaning, context, and intent of natural language text or speech, and converting it into a structured representation that can be used for further processing or reasoning. NLU enables machines to perform various tasks such as question answering, information extraction, sentiment analysis, text summarization, dialogue management, and natural language generation.
The global Natural Language Understanding (NLU) market is projected to reach US$ 2535.5 million in 2029, increasing from US$ 1017 million in 2022, with the CAGR of 13.5% during the period of 2023 to 2029.
The growth of the market is driven by factors such as the increasing demand for conversational AI applications, the advancement of deep learning and neural network technologies, the availability of large-scale data and cloud computing resources, and the emergence of new domains and use cases for natural language understanding. Some of the challenges faced by the market are the complexity and diversity of natural languages, the lack of standardization and interoperability among natural language understanding products, and the ethical and social implications of natural language understanding.
