Book Synopsis

Description

Modern NLP techniques based on machine learning radically improve the ability of software to recognize patterns, use context to infer meaning, and accurately discern intent from poorly-structured text. In Natural Language Processing in Action, readers explore carefully chosen examples and expand their machine's knowledge which they can then apply to a range of challenges.

Key Features

• Easy-to-follow

• Clear examples

• Hands-on-guide

Audience

A basic understanding of machine learning and some experience with a modern programming language such as Python, Java, C++, or
