Photo-editing application recommendations

A system implemented in a digital medium environment to automatically provide recommendations for carrying out workflows in connection with editing digital photographs, the system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• memory having stored thereon computer-readable instructions that are executable by the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
• obtaining application usage data that describes photo-editing actions performed by users of a photo-editing application;
• generating digital content as a photo-editing language model by applying one or more natural language processing techniques to words selected to represent the photo-editing actions as a sequence of the words semantically arranged in an order that the photo-editing actions are performed, the one or more natural language processing techniques including partitioning contiguous sequences of semantically arranged words into sentences and contiguous sequences of the sentences into paragraphs;
• and
• deploying the photo-editing language model for incorporation with the photo-editing application, the photo-editing language model used by the photo-editing application to recommend at least one tool based on additional application usage data received as a digital photograph is being edited.

In a digital medium environment to automatically provide recommendations for carrying out workflows in connection with editing digital photographs, a method implemented by at least one computing device, the method comprising:

• obtaining, by the at least one computing device, digital content comprising a photo-editing language model trained to predict a current workflow in connection with editing digital photographs via a photo-editing application, the photo-editing language model trained by representing photo-editing actions in an order that the photo-editing actions are performed with the photo-editing application as a sequence of semantically arranged words and applying at least one natural language processing technique, including partitioning contiguous sequences of semantically arranged words into sentences and contiguous sequences of the sentences into paragraphs of a photo-editing language;
• providing, by the at least one computing device and to the photo-editing language model, data indicative of a stream of photo-editing actions performed in an order by a user of the photo-editing application in connection with editing a digital photograph;
• receiving, by the at least one computing device, a prediction of the current workflow as output from the photo-editing language model, the photo-editing language model outputting the prediction based, in part, on the semantically arranged words of the photo-editing language that represent the photo-editing actions of the stream;
• and
• presenting, by the at least one computing device, a recommendation for at least one tool of the photo-editing application based on the current workflow.
