This paper presents a new computanullonal model of creanullve outcomes, informed by creanullvity theories and techniques, which was implemented tool to generate more novel opportuninulles for innovanullon projects. The model implemented five funcnullons that were developed to contribute to the generanullon of innovanullon opportuninulles with higher novelty without loss of usefulness. The model was evaluated using opportuninulles generated for an innovanullon project in the hospitality sector . The evaluanullon revealed that the co mputanullonal model generated outcomes that were more novel and/or useful than outcomes from Notebook LM and ChatGPT4o. However, not all of the model's funcnullons contributed to the generanullon of more novel opportuninulles, leading to new direcnullons for further model development .

Evaluating corporate sustainability performance is essential to drive sustainable business practices, amid the need for a more sustainable economy. However, this is hindered by the complexity and volume of corporate sustainability data (i.e. sustainability disclosures), not least by the effectiveness of the NLP tools used to analyse them. To this end, we identify three primary challenges - immateriality, complexity, and subjectivity, that exacerbate the difficulty of extracting insights from sustainability disclosures. To address these issues, we introduce ESGSenticNet, a publicly available knowledge base for sustainability analysis. ESGSenticNet is constructed from a neurosymbolic framework that integrates specialised concept parsing, GPT-4o inference, and semi-supervised label propagation, together with a hierarchical taxonomy. This approach culminates in a structured knowledge base of 44k knowledge triplets - ('halve carbon emission', supports, 'emissions control'), for effective sustainability analysis. Experiments indicate that ESGSenticNet, when deployed as a lexical method, more effectively captures relevant and actionable sustainability information from sustainability disclosures compared to state of the art baselines. Besides capturing a high number of unique ESG topic terms, ESGSenticNet outperforms baselines on the ESG relatedness and ESG action orientation of these terms by 26% and 31% respectively. These metrics describe the extent to which topic terms are related to ESG, and depict an action toward ESG. Moreover, when deployed as a lexical method, ESGSenticNet does not require any training, possessing a key advantage in its simplicity for non-technical stakeholders.

We describe the use of Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithms to perform topic mining and labelling applied to retail customer communications in attempt to characterize the subject of customers inquiries. In this paper we compare both algorithms in the topic mining performance and propose methods to assign topic subject labels in an automated way.

Analytics Industry is all about obtaining the "Information" from the data. With the growing amount of data in recent years, that too mostly unstructured, it's difficult to obtain the relevant and desired information. But, technology has developed some powerful methods which can be used to mine through the data and fetch the information that we are looking for. One such technique in the field of text mining is Topic Modelling. As the name suggests, it is a process to automatically identify topics present in a text object and to derive hidden patterns exhibited by a text corpus.
