Training a model to identify specific SMS types and extract relevant data? - lord_of_cinder - Oct-10-2022
Hi all,
I have been playing around with data extraction from SMS messages and had a conundrum. I wanted to create a system that would identify payment notification / receipt SMS's from my service providers and extract the relevant data to track my payments. I had initially accomplished this with PHP using regex which helped not only with identifying the notification messages but data extraction but realized that there was a downside if the structure of the messages changed, the regex match would fail. Is it possible in python to train a model to learn to identify the notification messages and handle the data extraction? If yes, what tutorials would you recommend I get into in order to accomplish this?
