What is the process of searching unstructured data called?

Indexing
Sorting
Querying
Natural language processing

The correct answer is: Natural language processing

Natural language processing is the process of searching unstructured data, which involves using computer algorithms and linguistics to understand and interpret human language. Option A, indexing, is incorrect because indexing typically refers to organizing data for faster access, not searching for it. Option B, sorting, is incorrect because sorting refers to arranging data in a specific order, not searching for it. Option C, querying, is incorrect because querying typically involves searching for structured data, not unstructured data. Natural language processing is the most appropriate process for searching unstructured data.
