Easy Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Python
Explore & Build Common Applications of Machine Learning in Industry
By Lazy Programmer | in Online Courses
Over this course you will build multiple practical systems using natural language processing (NLP), the branch of machine learning and data science that deals with text and speech. You'll start with a background on NLP before diving in, building a spam detector and a model for sentiment analysis in Python. Learning how to build these practical tools will give you an excellent window into the mechanisms that drive machine learning.
