Is this a date? Using ML to identify date formats in file names

摘要

File names play a vital role in facilitating effective communication and organization among teams. Files with cryptic or nonsensical names can quickly lead to chaos—whereas a well-structured naming system can streamline workflows, improve collaboration, and ensure easy retrieval of information. Consistency in naming across different files and file types enables teams to find and share content more efficiently, saving time and reducing frustration.

To make it easier for our users to organize and find their files, Dropbox has an automated feature called naming conventions. With this feature, users can set rules around how files should be named, and files uploaded to a specific folder will automatically be renamed to match the preferred convention. For example, files could be renamed to include a keyword or date.
