Course Description

Build a Strong NLP Foundation

Unlock the power of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and take your text analysis skills to the next level! This course equips you with essential tools to process, analyze, and extract insights from text data. Start with the fundamentals of text processing, from tokenization to cleaning and normalizing text by removing stop words, punctuation, and applying lemmatization and stemming to improve text consistency.

Extract Meaningful Features from Text

Go beyond raw text and transform it into numerical representations! Explore the Bag-of-Words representation, dive into TF-IDF vectorization, and leverage powerful word embeddings like Word2Vec and GloVe to capture semantic relationships between words.

Classify and Generate Text with AI

Harness the power of state-of-the-art transformer models using Hugging Face pipelines. Learn how to perform sentiment analysis, classify content, analyze question-answer relationships, assess grammatical acceptability, and generate text using various models. Explore Named Entity Recognition (NER), Part-of-Speech (PoS) tagging, text summarization, and translation to expand your NLP toolkit.

Master key NLP libraries

By the end of this course, you’ll have a strong grasp of NLP fundamentals and hands-on experience with key libraries such as nltk, sklearn, gensim, and Hugging Face’s transformers. Start your journey today and transform the way you interact with text data!
