• Key Concepts: 
  Variant generation is a feature of the EIM-TA SAP BusinessObjects Text Analysis component. It is used to automatically generate variants of words and phrases in order to improve the accuracy of text analysis. This is done by replacing words with their synonyms, or by adding or removing words from a phrase.
  
  How to use it: 
  Variant generation can be used to improve the accuracy of text analysis by automatically generating variants of words and phrases. To use it, simply select the “Generate Variants” option in the Text Analysis component. This will generate a list of variants for each word or phrase that can be used to improve the accuracy of text analysis.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using variant generation, it is important to remember that not all variants will be useful. It is important to review the generated variants and select only those that are relevant to the text being analyzed. Additionally, it is important to remember that variant generation can be computationally intensive, so it should be used sparingly.
  
  Related Information: 
  Variant generation is closely related to stemming and lemmatization, which are techniques used to reduce words to their root forms. Additionally, variant generation can be used in conjunction with other text analysis techniques such as sentiment analysis and topic modeling.
