AI-900 Practice Question: Describe features of Natural Language Processing workloads on Azure

A law firm needs to automatically process incoming legal documents. They have two specific requirements: (1) extract the names of all parties involved, the court name, and the filing date; (2) categorize each document as a 'complaint', 'motion', or 'subpoena'. Which two Azure AI Language features should they use? (Choose two.)

⚠ Common exam trap

A common mix-up: candidates confuse key phrase extraction with named entity recognition, but key phrase extraction returns untyped phrases rather than structured entities with predefined categories, and it cannot perform document-level classification.

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Custom text classification

Custom text classification (C) is correct because it allows the law firm to train a model to categorize legal documents into custom classes like 'complaint', 'motion', or 'subpoena' based on labeled examples. This feature is designed for domain-specific classification tasks where predefined categories are insufficient.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Sentiment analysis

    Why it's wrong here

    Sentiment analysis determines the emotional tone of text, not entity extraction or document categorization.

  • Key phrase extraction

    Why it's wrong here

    Key phrase extraction identifies important phrases but does not extract specific structured entities or classify documents into custom categories.

  • Custom text classification

    Why this is correct

    Custom text classification can be trained to assign user-defined labels such as 'complaint', 'motion', or 'subpoena' to documents.

  • Named entity recognition (NER)

    Why this is correct

    NER extracts specific entities like names of parties, court names, and dates from unstructured text, fulfilling the extraction requirement.
