Overview:
In May 2020 only, Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality received almost a million complaints from the residents of Istanbul. By making a subject-based classification of written complaints addressed to the municipality, we aim to facilitate the communication of these complaints to the relevant Municipality Owned Enterprises (MOEs) in a shorter time. Hence, while the residents’ complaints will be addressed more quickly, the workers at the complaint desk will see the burden of their work reduced. Using online written complaints as our data source, we capitalize on NLP and ML algorithms for complaint processing and learning procedure. At the end, we obtain a tool that can predict the subject of any text and directs it to the right people.
